Here's the link for the new E! article

Thanks for sharing the link! I totally think this all points to Whitney as well. Right now she is ahead in the EW polls at about 61 percent voting that Whitney will be F1.

I just want to wish them well wishes! Sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't. They have as much a chance as any one!

I actually think they have a good chance. They both seem to want the family and the farm.

So how many fans left tonight?

Not gonna rehash the Becca stuff because I never believed she was the one he wanted, but they had a show to make. Interesting that we never got to see the first part of their LCD. Did it not help further their edit agenda for the night? I think so. She was classy and beautiful tonight.

I think Whit did so well during the ATFR. Surprisingly Chris was the relaxed one and she was nervous. I did notice that they aren't as OTT with the PDA but still seem loving and gentle together.

Good luck to them. They're both mature, in the right time of their lives, and have good careers. They're already ahead right out of the gate. I look forward to watching them take this into the real world.

I am married to man almost 36 yrs. who is so not into PDA, I would call him allergic. It's perfectly ok. I did not marry him for that. :P He makes up for it in a zillion other ways.
If they both understand and work with each other--just like any other couple, it will be ok.

I think Chris and Whitney just seem more adult than couples in the past. Full disclosure thinking about Andi and Josh. And not having to rub each other constantly I'm seeing as a strength for them.

Also i have no problem with Whitney talking for Chris, I think it is something he was looking for.

I wish them the very best will watch later. Now I need to go and sleep, where I am is early morning.

Per bolded: ITA. He'll talk when he needs to. It does not appear to be his strength and he is aware of it. Let him stick to the livestock commodities.

^^ I was watching with my mom who works in agriculture and she just kept saying "he has to be smart for what he does and I get frustrated that he can't articulate his thoughts."  I think Whitney helps him fill this void.

It's hard for me to watch him let her take the lead like he does, but in reality I think he is completely in awe of her. That's how their relationship was throughout the show and that is still how it seems now. I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing and growing up with three sisters and a mom, maybe that's just the way he is. I'm excited to see where this goes, but trying not to get my hopes up.

I see Trista and Ryan in them. To me, Trista took the lead.

Chris seems like a man that knows his strengths and weaknesses. Smart man to pick a woman who compliments him and can take the lead without hesitation. All relationships have different dynamics. It's whatever works for the 2 people in the relationship.
