And then there were two.
JoJo Fletcher made her pick for the final two men on “The Bachelorette” Monday night but the roses didn’t come without some thorns and lots of tears.
Warning, spoilers below!
The episode kicked off with Fletcher in Thailand for her fantasy suite dates with Jordan Rodgers, Robby Hayes and Chase McNary. But before McNary could spend the night, Fletcher blindsided him with the news that she’s just not in love with him.
McNary lost his cool and angrily stormed off, leaving Fletcher with her final two suitors: Rodgers and Hayes.
It wouldn’t be an episode of “The Bachelorette” without a curve ball, though. McNary showed up during the rose ceremony — not to beg for another chance, but to say he was sorry for getting so upset. Perhaps a bid to save face with viewers in hopes of landing the starring role on the next season of “The Bachelor?”
So who are these guys competing for Fletcher’s final rose? Let’s break it down.
Jordan Rodgers:
The brother of NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers, Jordan has been very vocal on the show about their estrangement.
Rodgers, a 27-year-old California native, has experience in the pros like his brother, having done stints with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Miami Dolphins. He quit the NFL in 2015 and went on to make a cameo in “Pitch Perfect 2” before signing on to compete for JoJo’s heart.
His motives for joining the show have been questioned by fans on social media with many of them tweeting he’s only in it for the fame.
Robby Hayes:
Hayes, also 27, hails from Jacksonville, Florida. He’s currently getting his Masters in finance from the University of Miami and he’s a former competitive swimmer.
He wants a big family. On his ABC profile he’s quoted as saying, “3 … 4 … 5 [kids]… whatever my future wife and I are comfortable with. But coming from a large family, there’s no chance we stop at two!”
The finale of “The Bachelorette” airs next Monday on ABC.
