And this?
Word on the street is that we may see the same situation tonight and tomorrow night. Did Peter get engaged to one woman in Australia, then dump her and beg the runner-up to take him back, following in the footsteps of Jason and Arie? Maybe.
For what it's worth, both of the couples pictured above are now married and parents to a child. Jason and Molly just celebrated their 10th anniversary. I'm betting that Arie and Lauren won't last that long, but still. These two couples represent double the number of Bachelors who have actually married the woman they proposed to on the show. (There's just one, Sean Lowe. He and Catherine now have three children.)
Will Peter be the third member of the Bachelor Betrayal club? We'll know soon. And why did ABC announce the new Bachelorette early? Usually they hold the surprise until the last night of the finale, which would be tonight. One thought: If Peter really does "pull an Arie," think about Becca. There was so much sympathy and affection for her in Bachelor Nation that she was the obvious choice for Bachelorette. Would the same thing happen to Hannah Ann if Peter dumps her to get Madison? Probably, but my guess is ABC doesn't want Hannah Ann in the lead role. She's just too young. (As is Madison.) Selecting Clare and announcing her early solves the problem without having to reject Hannah Ann.
Update on Wednesday morning. Wow, just wow. Ben Flajnik in 2012 was the last Bachelor who didn't get even a tiny little secondary headline on People during the week his finale aired. This week, no sign of Peter:
Issue dated March 23, 2020: Harry, Meghan, William and Kate
More to come...
Update #2. What a surprise:
And from Madison:
