Arie Luyendyk Jr. is headlining ABC's “The Bachelor” 2018 season and he has previously revealed that he did fall in love. In fact, Arie has admitted that he actually fell in love with two women, but he has said throughout his media appearances for Season 22 that he is happy about where things ended. However, according to bombshell “Bachelor” spoilers from gossip king Reality Steve, that isn't quite the truth.
A stunning 'Bachelor' ending is reportedly coming
According to Reality Steve's “Bachelor” spoilers, Arie Luyendyk Jr. has split from his initial final rose recipient and is now with his runner-up.
Earlier spoilers had detailed that Arie picked Becca Kufrin, and there had been some photos posted on social media that confirmed this. However, spoiler fans had started buzzing about some subtle changes in how both Luyendyk and Kufrin were posting on social media that were perceived as signs that perhaps things weren't going well.
Reality Steve explains that ABC and Arie were recently spotted at Lauren Burnham's family's home in Virginia and they were there filming for hours. At first, the gossip king didn't know exactly what was transpiring, but he now indicates that he had been hearing some rumors and now has pieced things together. He says that Luyendyk split with Kufrin and is now dating Burnham, who came up just short of initially receiving his final rose.
The split reportedly happened quite recently and “Bachelor” spoilers indicate that Arie did not wait long to reunite with Lauren. Reality Steve notes that he is absolutely certain that Arie and Becca did initially get engaged during the filming of the final rose ceremony in Peru on November 17. Luyendyk and Kufrin went on to spend time together at least a few times after that, but it seems they split during their last visit together recently in Los Angeles.
The Season 22 'Bachelor' finale should be a doozy
What will fans see of all of this? Reality Steve's “Bachelor” spoilers detail cameras were rolling as Arie and Becca split, and it seems likely that viewers will see that during the “After the Final Rose” special in March. How sudden was this? The gossip guru says that Luyendyk called Burnham the night that Season 22 debuted and that the “Bachelor” star had been having doubts about his decision to pick Becca over Lauren.
Luyendyk and Burnham are reportedly dating now, but they are not engaged.
Could these “Bachelor” spoilers be wrong? People will surely doubt these latest teasers until it all plays out in the finale and “ATFR” special, but there do seem to be multiple signs pointing toward this shocker on the way. Arie has made some references on social media that he's thinking of taking a break and that the internet has been a weird place for him, and this flip-flop on his final rose decision certainly explains why he feels that way.
Do you think that Lauren Burnham and Arie Luyendyk Jr. make a stronger couple than what he would have had with Becca Kufrin? Stay tuned for additional “Bachelor” spoilers as they emerge to see if Reality Steve nailed it for Season 22.
