I love the video posted (obviously). Chris really isn't just the greatest man she's ever met, he's also a really loyal friend. It's so great he kept the faith for them even when she wavered. Cuties!

Ah yes that was me. If I can't have him,then I'm THRILLED that Des got him. I'm pretty sure my fairly new boyfriend would have an issue with me running off to do The Bachelor. I'll just drool over Juan Pablo from the comfort of my recliner.

At least he reminds me of Ryan Park a.k.a. Mister Sunshine...

Hands down... he, JP and Willie Holman were the most entertaining guys of Ashley's season. The Biggest Mistake was Fleiss using "Grumpy" Ben Flajnik instead as the next lead. THAT season was a silly waste, although Nicki was the hottest of his contestants and at least Courtney was amusing to watch.

Thanks for the reminder, I better get to the stores tomorrow and get my copy, I think this one might fly off the shelves quick since there are so many naysayers out there giggling

Anyone else think Des had an 'aha!' moment here? I noticed it last night, I could almost see the wheels turning... starting at 2:49

Yep she sure did, that's why she came across as processing everything Chris was saying to her, it was as if in a flash she saw her prince charming in front of her and in her ITM confirmed it by saying that she could not believe she did not love him from the beginning, I am just happy for the girl that she got the revelation right there. Even objective folks now are saying that the connection between Des and Chris came across after they re-watched the season with the ending in mind now.

You and me both! It is just precious and so genuine. I love that Chris came on this show hoping it would be Des and that he discovered in ep 3 that she was more than gorgeous but someone he wanted to pursue. I love how she eliminated Drew so she could focus her attention 100 percent on Chris in the finale and you could just see her blooming again and reach a kind of love that she and Chris both deserve to have.

And, I have to admit, I love how calm and matter of fact she was with Brooks when he returned to ATFR. She has so clearly moved on and is in a fantastic place with Chris now. While she did not intend to be mean, I had to chuckle when she reflected back to that day Brooks broke up with her and said something like, "oh yeah, it all got great after you left." giggling

I felt this moment around 3:00 was an aha moment or should have been. He was about to cry. I wish we got to see more of that date. I feel cheated not getting to see the kayak and sting ray part. Also, I wish instead of Chris giving her something (publicly) I wish she would have done something meaningful for him. It would have been great if she made a list of her favorite moments, maybe moments we haven't seen and had production help her put together a montage of them where she expressed giving him all the love back that he deserved. I think she has tried to express that in interviews, but they keep asking about Brooks so I again feel bad for him. They just need to get to Seattle and out of the public scrutiny. I'll miss Chris on my screen but I really hope they stay away from bachelor nation stuff.
