There's a comment on that post from the photographer who said the papaya doesn't mean anything. She was at the grocery store the day before the shoot and saw papayas and decided to pick one up. I guess she likes to incorporate fruit in her shoots sometimes? Idk. Still weird. Legit LOL, this is perfect!

Loved the compilation of Justin's magical expressions. Love Katie's ring and she looked great with that bouncy ponytail. We should all have such hair pieces to bob around in. Loved the boom box and dance thing Blake set up. Loved how Katie handled Greg. I thought she was confident and well-spoken for the most part. The animosity between them and the terse exchanges of "I wish you nothing but the best" was daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. I'd like to see some footage of the real Greg if this version of him was tailored for the show.
Katie's aunt is a harsh and angry person! She went a bit hard at Blake (you don't mean shit, etc.), interrogation much? Dang Aunt Lindsay, chill out. How does anyone know what their EXACT PLANS are for when things sour in a relationship? It's too bad she didn't have a chance to talk to Greg. That would have been something!
Onto BIP next week. Had no idea Becca was joining until I saw her in the promo last night!

I thought Katie came across...not great...in the exchange with Greg. Don't get me wrong, he fully sucks, but she was like a dog with a bone. I'm guessing my reaction to it is some internalized misogyny, but yeah.

fb , I think she was so angry because she had been so hurt and was still hurt and then for Greg to say he had no regrets just before she walked on stage probable fueled her ragefire. If he had seen the episode, and had nothing to regret? Oouf. Not cool. I think after the episode aired, she got on social media and rally cries of "he's gaslighting her!11!!!" and it emboldened her to come at him the way she did. I do think she was on a tear and it wasn't all well-done on her part, agreed. I do not think there could be an actual understanding between them, they weren't listening to one another. I still think what he did was wrong, and how he handled it was wrong, but I understand he was hurting and needed some reassurance IN THAT MOMENT and he didn't get it. It's not that he wasn't given enough during their dates previously. He was so in his head in that moment, nothing but what he wanted to hear was gonna be enough. Aaaand, I mean she is Aunt Lindsay's niece, obviously.

But last night went exactly as I thought it would, but I loved her ring.

Though the Mom was much nicer.

Though the Mom was much nicer. I guess it fits Katie’s personally too. I know that she was willing to compromise or move etc but I wonder really if she is. She is getting a new place in California not Canada Also I know that it is not that long and he came in late but no talk at all about where to move etc if it worked out?

angelashly, I definitely wonder about their plans for making it work, him currently living in Hamilton (and working in Africa for a month at a time, which isn't really problematic imo) and her being in WA -- soon to be Cali.

I don't know how you guys can think she looks bad. Greg manipulated her and gaslighted her. She was literally begging for him to stay and he was such a dick. I know that feeling all too well and I hate that he put her in that position and made her feel that way. It's emotionally abusive. I am not disagreeing with you and like I said he was terrible, but she I don't know could have done something different. She was right with all that she said but the way she came about it was weird. Also everything she was saying was coming from the Bachelor Nation tweets so I just feel it was off.

Isn't he actually unemployed right now? Is he? That would maybe make a move to California easier if he can sort a work visa and all that. I saw somewhere Katie was quoted as saying "next stop Canada" so perhaps they'll decide to settle there part time, too, who knows.

Aunt Lindsay was clearly not happy in her marriage or knows something about Katie we don't because WOOOOOOOOOF It was way over the top. I didn’t like how she asked him questions and it was obvious that no matter what he said she was going to act like it was a stupid answer. There was absolutely nothing he could have said or done to get a better reaction from her and for that reason I didn’t like it. It’s one thing to be critical or question the person, but you have to be willing to HEAR the person out and be open to the responses. She came off bitter. I’m sure Blake is wondering how often they all get together 😉

I'm watching Katie and Greg now. His laughing when she brought up his acting just made me believe the rumors all the more. Like it was such an unnatural laugh came off as him trying to way too hard to brush it off as nonsense.

What was said on GMA this morning is that she is getting a place in San Diego and he is getting one somewhere in Canada and they will spend time in both places. Seems expensive

BTW - pitchslap , where are you with thoughts on Katie's finale?!!! I was thinking again last night Justin with their word choice, but I bet they do. Although usually they have to tape that about the time hers would be airing.
