Whose Boyfriend Shows Up on The Bachelor?

Here's What We Know About the Mystery Ex Crashing The Bachelor

Feb 22 2018

Last week we were teased with a preview of what we thought would be Monday's (Feb. 19) hometown dates on The Bachelor. It showed a man — just his lower half — showing up and saying, "No, I don't want to be on this show. I want my girl. I'm here to get her back. That's my proposal to give her," and then an image of a bouquet of roses — not red, in case you were wondering.

Hometown date after hometown date, we were waiting for this mystery man to show up, and he never came. Instead, one lady was sent home (Spoiler: It was Tia) and many fathers claimed they'd hurt Arie Luyendyk Jr. if he hurt their baby girl. After the episode ended we were given a new teaser for next week's Fantasy Suites episode with the same clip of a mystery man showing up and trying to woo back his lady.

After all of the hype we have reason to believe that it could be any of the final three lady's former flames.

Kendall

Unlike the other top ladies, Kendall hasn't opened up much about her romantic past, which could mean she's the least likely to have an unwanted visitor. Then again, the fact that we haven't heard about a past romance, doesn't mean that one doesn't exist. In fact, Kendall having a former flame show up would be the most unlikely situation, which kind of makes us think it could be her former flame at the mansion — or wherever they are. If he had brought something taxidermy than we'd know the mystery man was linked to Kendall, but sadly he didn't (at least based on the clip), so for now it's anyone's game.

Becca K.

Becca K. was in a seven-year relationship, so there is a really good chance that on-and-off romance wasn't exactly over . . . at least in the man's eyes. When telling Arie about her reasoning for being on The Bachelor she said, "After putting up with a lot of stuff in past relationships, I know what I want and I know what I don't want."

She later noted that "My most serious relationship, we were on and off for about seven years. And I'm just ready to move on in my life and find that person again . . . Especially initially, he got me through the hardest time I had ever lived through at that point when my dad passed away."

The seriousness of her past relationship, and the fact that the man had a bit of an accent — not a Minnesota accent which is where she is from — could point to Becca being the recipient of those roses . . . the ones not from Arie.

Lauren B.

Lauren B. might be the frontrunner right now to win that final rose, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have a former boyfriend waiting to sabotage it all. In case you forgot, Lauren has talked about being engaged in the past, and what better reason to come and get "your girl" than the fact that she left you (and broke off your engagement) to be on The Bachelor?

"I felt that was something very serious and I was ready for it and I thought he was my person I was going to be with for the rest of my life. Then as soon as we got engaged, he was cool with not treating me very well. It did affect me emotionally and I'm even more guarded than I was before," Lauren told Arie on her one-on-one date in Paris. Even though Lauren was over this unhealthy relationship it doesn't mean her ex-fiancé is ready to say goodbye.

PS: According to Us Weekly, Lauren has actually been engaged twice, which means double the possible suitors knocking on the mansion door! Oh, and she is southern, and resides in Texas, so that accent we hear in the clip is really making the man seem like he is linked to Lauren.
