BRAD AND EMILY ALREADY OVER?!
Bachelor Brad Womack was proudly proclaiming his love for Emily on Monday night’s finale, but Popeater reports that the couple is already over. Sources tell the site that while Brad claimed during the show that he was ready to marry Emily, in reality they have already broken up for good. “Emily is so insecure, she just isn’t cut out for all the fame and attention her relationship is under,” a show insider tells the site. “The six weeks of shooting the show in paradise was easy, away from prying eyes and photographers, but since they both returned to their normal lives things have been a disaster.” Apparently, now that the show has aired, Emily is having a hard time coming to terms with Brad’s wooing of her fellow Bachelorettes. “Emily is not able to forgive Brad for what she considers cheating week-after-week with other girls,” a producer tells the site. “It’s always hard sending the couple back into reality after they have been living in paradise, but no one in the history of the show has had as hard a time adjusting as Emily.” Although Bachelor host Chris Harrison acknowledged that things have been “extremely hard” for the couple, he insists that Brad and Emily, “are doing as good as they ever have.” He adds, “They are extremely happy. The good thing is they are really trying to make it work.”
After news of their rocky relationship hit, Brad released the following statement, “At long last, Emily and I can be open to the world and each other about our relationship. Though we are madly in love, it has been a bumpy couple of months for us and our priority right now is to focus on our relationship. We hope that you can respect our privacy as we return to normalcy and begin our off-screen lives together.”
