Will Cassie Win Over Colton on The Bachelor?

5 Reasons We're Betting on Cassie to Win Bachelor Colton's Heart

Amid all of the drama that went down in this week's episode of The Bachelor, there was one connection that went majorly right. Colton and Cassie's relationship is definitely taking a few steps forward, which has fans wondering if the California-based speech pathologist is going to be the winner of this season (and of Colton's heart).

Cassie hadn't received a ton of screen time before this week, but that doesn't mean she and Colton haven't hit it off. And during their one-on-one date, the chemistry was undeniable, cementing Cassie as one to watch this season. Colton couldn't keep his hands or his eyes off Cassie, and she seemed to feel the same way, too. It looks like the fortune teller's comment in Singapore about them having been brother and sister in a past life didn't put a damper on the romantic feelings between them!

Here are some of the clues that Cassie, who is also on another reality show, might be getting that final rose. Fans are still a ways away from finding out who won Colton over in the end. But Cassie is definitely one contestant worth keeping an eye on — especially after their super romantic date in Thailand on this week's Bachelor episode.

1. Cassie Didn't Make Fun of Colton's Virginity When She Got Out of the Limo

First off, Cassie was one of the few contestants who didn't have an awkward comment about Colton's virginity prepared for the first time they met. Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean they're together at the end of it, but it shows that she has a deep respect for Colton and his experience. (Fans will remember that when Cassie met Colton for the first time, she handed him a box of butterflies.) And Colton told The Hollywood Reporter that he wants to be known "for much more than just being a virgin," so Cassie's thoughtfulness could have gone a long way.

Cassie did bring up the virginity topic with Colton on their date, but it was in relation to her own experience. She mentioned that she might feel judged by others in her community for the fact that she isn't a virgin, highlighting the issue from her own perspective. Cassie didn't joke about Colton's virginity; instead, she had an honest conversation with him about it. And that's worth noting, as the fantasy suite dates draw nearer.

2. They Have Sizzling Chemistry

Cassie and Colton finally went on a one-on-one date, and sparks were flying between these two. Their connection is more than evident on screen — especially since it culminated in an impromptu makeout session . . . in bed. During that intimate moment, the two of them also said they both felt like they'd known each other for "so long," which shows how close they're feeling. Colton also told Cassie on their date that he'd been "insanely attracted" to her from the moment they first met, a physical connection he doesn't seem to have with the other women.

3. Cassie Has Stayed Out of the Drama

While some of the other ladies have gotten into disagreements with each other — remember Demi and Tracy's blowout, or Nicole's fight with Onyeka? — Cassie has managed to avoid the drama. That hints that she's truly on the show "for the right reasons," and that she's more focussed on Colton than she is on the other ladies. (She's still making friends with the others, though, especially Caelynn — she's just not joining in on any of the arguments.)

4. Both She and Colton Are Passionate About Helping Others

As a speech pathology student, Cassie wants to open her own practice, according to her official Bachelor bio. She also wants to work with kids, something that Colton does through his cystic fibrosis charity, the Colton Underwood Legacy Foundation. Cassie and Colton both seem genuinely dedicated to helping other people, and children in particular, which could make them a great match.

5. Cassie Joked About Getting a Neil Lane Ring From Colton

In an Instagram post last month, Cassie had a very interesting caption to share alongside a photo of her pushing a tire on the show. "Caption Options: 1. When you gotta secure the ring 💍 2. Get this ring away from me. I'm not ready for that . . . Or am I? 3. Hey @neillanejewellery ... do you make rings this big? 😉," Cassie wrote. She could have just been trying to be clever, but it might be a subtle hint to Cassie and Colton's potential future together.
