Jason Mesnick from last season has given up his ‘Bachelor’ status and proposed to the runner-up to his heart Molly Malaney. He had ended the season giving one of the final roses to Melissa Rycroft, after which they went off to New Zealand where he proposed to her on national television. On a wrap-up episode, Jason put the kibosh on his proposal to Melissa and chose the runner-up Molly instead.
Since the fated episode, Jason returned to the island nation with his new love Molly and a diamond engagement ring. I wonder if it was a RITANI ring?? He proposed to her a week later and she accepted. Supposedly it’s the real deal this time around, as he “contended he was being true to his heart, and that his reversal was the right thing for everyone, including Rycroft” (who got engaged to a former beau herself several months later).
Molly has forgiven him for not choosing her from the start. They have been seeing each other as much as they can considering she lives in Milwaukee and he in Seattle. Jason and Molly were guests of Air New Zealand, who hired them to host the world’s first “Matchmaking Flight,” where 100 singles from North America traveled from L.A. to Auckland, New Zealand.
These reality shows sure pack a lot of drama but I am concerned about the lack of substance. Will these two actually walk down the aisle together or is this just another way for him to get a little more out of his 15 minutes.
