One year has passed since the reunion show.
Based on the success of Heartbreak Hotel, XYZ Studios tried ripping off every other reality concept. Unfortunately, they couldn’t match the success. They are in the process of filing for bankruptcy.
Julie was correct. She did have a project in the works. Unfortunately, the pilot never saw the light of day. She was a pariah. She couldn’t find work in acting or as a personal trainer. She tried to move back with her parents, but they refused. Wouldn’t you given the way she portrayed them on The Bachelor? Desperation caused her to become a prostitute to pay her bills. She was recently in the news again. She was busted with Charlie Sheen in a hotel room.
Jeremy still works as a firefighter. He has gone through several other girlfriends but was unable to find a connection like he had with Samantha.
Naveena fulfilled her dream when she was asked to pose for the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. While it wasn’t the cover, it was a foot in the door.
McKenna finished her graduate work and is now working with special needs children.
Alison is still bartending at the Swing Club. She is still looking for a man she loved as much as Brian.
Caitlin is engaged to the man she chose on The Bachelorette. He plays guitar in her band. She rode the song she wrote about Brian to number one. She was nominated for a CMA award for Best New Artist.
Brian was able to find work as a customer service representative. He couldn’t walk down the streets of Bismarck without getting looks from the neighbors. Even though all of his friends were there, he felt he needed to move away and start a new life.
Samantha also moved away from San Antonio. She felt a need to be close to her family. She decided on St. Paul, Minnesota. She was able to find work quickly as a paralegal.
The producers from The Bachelor called Brian and asked him to come back and be the bachelor again. He turned them down. He was engaged to Samantha and living with her in St. Paul.
The producers gave him a counteroffer. They offered to pay for the wedding in exchange for the rights to broadcast it. Being short on cash, they took them up on that offer.
The network spared no expense. They went with an island theme, a reminder of their first date. They hired a calypso band to play. The bridesmaids wore flowered dresses with flowers in their hair. Samantha wore a Vera Wang wedding dress with a bouquet of exotic flowers. They flew Brian’s friends in from Bismarck to be in his wedding party and the two families as well.
