Jillian and Ed sitting in a tree…KISSING. Well, the long-awaited day was finally here. Tonight we finally found out who Jillian Harris picked to be the love of her life. And the final rose goes to erectile dysfunction, greg brady look-a-like, bad dresser, and come-back kid ED!

We return to the big island of Hawaii for the Bachelorette season finale! Kiptyn and Ed meet Jillian‘s family. Ed lays his feelings on the line to Jillian‘s mum and dad telling him he is in love with her and basically asks Jillian‘s father how he would feel about Ed proposing. Jillian‘s parents like Ed and Kiptyn. Jillian‘s mom has a list of about 26 questions for each of the boys. Jillian’s grandmother practically tonsil hockeys the lads. And Jillian‘s cousin was probably thinking ‘toss what ya don’t want my way.’

Jillian and Ed get another chance at romance (and to see if the viagra Eds been taking has kicked in yet). We see more underwater shots of them entwined in each other swimming and Ed shows us his green mankini some more. They go for a walk in a rainforest and end up in a bed. As they roll around on the bed, cut to image of a volcano errupting – producers metaphoric message was about the damn funniest thing on the show! So, guess we are to assume that Ed‘s apparatus rose to the occasion and a good time was had by all.

Kiptyn and Jillian have another chance at love too. And we have plenty of chances to check out Mr. 8-pack shirtless! Kiptyn is one hot piece of ass. Jillian and Kiptyn row out on a surfboard and kiss and are plenty lovey-dovey. They spend another night together – lucky gal!

The morning of the finale rose ceremony, Jillian sips her coffee out on the balcony reflecting on her decision. She slips into a strapless white wedding type dress and walks out across a pool of blue to the spot where she will break someone’s heart and make someone else’s day. First out of the limo is Kiptyn. Sigh. He’s getting dumped now we all know. He walks towards Jillian and talks about all the dates and places they’ve been together and tells her that he’s fallin in love with her and wants to be with her. Jillian breaks the news to him that while he is everything she could ever have dreamed of having, she’s fallen for someone else. For the first time in his life, Kiptyn is the dumped instead of the dumpee. He takes it well and like a man and says all he wants is for her to be happy.

Kiptyn leaves but before Ed can arrive, an SUV type vehicle pulls up, white sneakers step out of the car and reveal cutie-patootie Reid is back. Chris Harrison tells him he doesn’t have much time to say what he’s there to say and motions him thru to Jillian. Jillian, relieved now that she’s just gotten thru the hard part of letting Kiptyn go and thinking now she can focus on her happy decision to be with Ed, is stunned to see Reid walking towards her. She grabs on to Reid and does not let go. Reid tells her that he let his fears get in the way but that he is in love with her and wants to spend the rest of his life with her and he drops to his knees to propose. Jillian tells him to get up and that she is overwhelmed. She needs time to think. Meanwhile, Ed‘s in his limo thinking, “didn’t we just pass that pineapple stand?”

Jillian goes inside where Chris Harrison finally joins her. And with minimal therapy says to her, you know what to do. you know what you’re feeling. you love Ed? you want to spend the rest of your life with him? And with that Jillian affirms that the decision she made earlier is the decision she is sticking to. She returns to Reid and tells him that she wanted him to say all these things to her a few weeks ago, but she was really happy and excited with the decision she made before he came back and that she is in love with someone else.

Distraught and rejected again, Reid leaves. Ed arrives and is greeted with a smile by Chris. He walks to Jillian who is smiling from ear to ear. The snot has been washed from her face and lipstick has been reapplied. Ed tells Jillian he loves her and wants to spend the rest of his life with her, have children with her, but before he goes any further he has to know how she feels about him. Jillian, who looks like she has ants in her pants with excitement, blurts out that she loves him too. That’s Ed‘s cue to get down on his knee and propose as he puts the pear shaped diamond ring on Jillian‘s finger. In Jillian fashion, she jumps up and hugs him and wraps her legs around him. Then Jillian rides piggy-back on Ed as they scamper away into never-never land.

The Bachelorette After the Final Rose tomorrow should be interesting. I’m sure Kiptyn and Reid are now top contenders for being the next Bachelor. We’ll see how that goes.
