Jesse explained, “I don’t know if you could tell by my reaction watching it, (but) I was surprised. It was something I haven’t encountered yet in the last four years as a host on any franchise. Normally, I think, our leads have a little more clarity – a lot more clarity – towards the last day. And I think Grant really was so conflicted.”
Jesse continued that it was Grant’s “significant” competitors that made his decision so difficult. He stated, “They’re phenomenal every year for who we have in charge (and) making a decision on the last day is always a very, very difficult decision, but I understand some of why Grant was so conflicted.

Jesse continued, “I mean we had to get it going. He has to make a decision and we have to have an ending. And I’m sorry for doing it and saying it like that and breaking that fourth wall, but I had to say it to help him understand. I know Grant understood, but there it went. And I think that shows how true it was.”

He shared, “I don’t want to speak for Grant, but I think he’s very, very happy with how things ended. I know he’s really excited for everyone to see this whole thing unfold. Grant is a very easy-going guy.”
Jesse concluded by saying: “I’m a fan of his and I know he’s a guy who’s been successful in everything he’s done in life outside of love (so far). With Zach and Joey, we’re going to use this streak a little bit, and I think we have a chance to keep this thing going, fingers crossed.”
That’s true. And I don’t know if you can tell from my reaction watching it, (but) I was surprised. That was something I have yet to encounter as a host in the past four years at any franchise. Normally, I think our leads are a little clearer – a lot clearer – towards the last day. And I really think Grant was really conflicted.
(The competitors are) phenomenal every year for who our lead is (and) making a decision on the last day is always a very, very difficult decision, but I understand part of why Grant was so conflicted. I’m just saying that. But definitely without giving too much away, it was genuine and real and not an edit.
It’s not something I want to say or should say. I mean, it’s kind of implied. Everyone gets it. But it got to the point during our conversation that it was so up in the air. I mean, we had to get it going. He has to make a decision and we have to have an ending. And I’m sorry I did it and said it that way and to break that fourth wall, but I had to say it to help him understand. I know Grant understood, but there it went. And I think that shows how true it was.
I don’t want to speak for Grant, but I think he’s very, very happy with how things ended. I know he’s really excited for everyone to see this whole thing unfold. Grant is a very easy going guy. I’m a fan of his and I know he’s a guy who’s been successful in everything he’s done in life outside of love (so far). With Zach and Joey, we’re kind of riding this streak, and I think we have a chance to keep this thing going, fingers crossed.
What Jesse Palmer’s Scholarship Forced to Make a Decision Means for a Bachelor
The show’s timeline can be detrimental to relationships
Although it is understandable that Bachelor the producers needed an ending for the show, it’s ridiculous that Grant had to choose between his last two women at that moment if he wasn’t ready. This could mean that she made the decision under a lot of pressure and that she might change her mind like former Bachelor hosts Jason Mesnick and Arie Luyendyk Jr. did in the past when they broke off their engagements and eventually married runners-up. Jesse even seems to regret the role he played in it as he said he was sorry he did it.

By forcing Grant to make a choice within a certain time frame, Jesse and the producers could have hurt his eventual relationship. Whether she was engaged or not, her final choice might not like that she was so torn up right before he either asked her to continue their relationship off the show or proposed to her. Unfortunately, this can lead to separation. This may paint Grant as a villain, but fans should remember that the real villains are the manipulative producers.
Our take on Grant Ellis’ inability to choose one woman during the finale
Grant must have some amazing women
Unlike Joey, who was so in love with Kelsey Anderson that even runner-up Daisy Kent saw it and bowed out gracefully so Joey could propose to Kelsey without the burden of breaking up with her, Grant appears to be an undecided candidate. As Jesse said, this is usually not normal. It was hoped that the producers manipulated the preview footage to make it look like Grant was torn, but now Jesse has revealed that it was all true.
