Melissa Rycroft, who was so memorably proposed to and then dumped on national television by Bachelor Jason Mesnick and then twirled her infamy into a stint on Dancing With the Stars, is engaged, Us Weekly reports. She reunited with insurance agent Tye Strickland in March after her stint on The Bachelor—they'd been on and off for two years.

"Sometimes the stars align and the clouds part and everything works out the way it should," Melissa gushed on Good Morning America today, where she has a new running gig. Which, wow. Honey, he didn't cure cancer. He put a … Read More

Fans of The Bachelorette will remember that Jillian Harris was cast off Season 13 of The Bachelor despite her fondness for single-dad-turned-serial-dumper Jason Mesnick. Not at all the mustard man Jillian was hoping for, Jason turned out to be total sauerkraut.

Moving past the picnic drama, Jillian is clearly ready to find love once again and has landed herself in the enviable position of dating 30 guys at once. As The Bachelorette swings into week 3, we examine what Jillian Harris has taught us thus far about dating more than one man at a time.

Jillian Harris, the star of this season's The Bachelorette, has not one but 30 eligible bachelors at her fingertips. In the past, Bachelorettes have had their pick of only 25 but blame it on a bad economy, there's more available men to go around!

Neena Pickett is calling her quest to find a husband in less than 52 weeks a "social experiment," which means men are the variables and marriage the hypothesis. Her method, while it may be unconventional, is undoubtedly decisive. "The idea of sitting still for a year is like a death sentence," she writes. So instead of sitting still, Neena's outlined a 52 week plan that includes a website, frequent videos and a panel of six friends who weigh in on her every move.

Does anyone else have whiplash after last night's finale of ABC’s The Bachelor? We're still trying to process everything. For those of you who didn’t watch it (and for those who are chatting it up around the water cooler this morning), let’s recap. On last night's finale Jason Mesnick, this season's single dad Bachelor and a fan favorite, is down to his final two women: former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Melissa Rycroft and Molly Malaney. With a surprise (not really) visit from former Bachelorette DeAnna Pappas who claims to have made a mistake by picking her now ex-fiancee Jesse … Read More

Besides the fact that never has a racial minority appeared as the Bachelor or Bachelorette on ABC's long-running reality show, we continued to be surprised by contestant Jason Mesnick's choices on last night's episode. Things that would make us sweat (not in a good way)—like being prepared to move cross-country for someone you've known for 48 hours—seem to make this guy smile. Here, a list of things this Seattle-based single dad likes in a lady:

For those of you who watch ABC’s The Bachelor and its female equivalent, The Bachelorette, you know there might be a bit of a curse on engagements from the show and it appears that it’s decided to rear its ugly head. Us magazine reported that the most recent Bachelorette, DeAnna Pappas has broken up with her chosen mate from the show, now ex-fiancee snowboarder Jesse Csincsak.  The jilted Csincsak took to the couple’s website in an obviously dejected and broken-hearted effort to give the guy's take on the whole thing: “DeAnna … Read More

Tristan Taormino has a cool column in this week's Village Voice about open relationships on TV. She discusses three shows that depict non-monogamous marriages, E!'s The Girls Next Door, HBO's Big Love and CBS's Swingtown and wonders what would happen if the star of ABC's The Bachelorette were polyamorous.
