But otherwise it just looks a little desperate. This is like Nick, Shawntel, and the rest who returned for a second chance.

Yeah, it definitely comes off a bit desperate. Even with Mary, the only successful returnee, Byron had asked for her when producers offered to bring in someone when he wasn't clicking with the original girls. I could buy that a bunch of girls had wanted to join and Ben was given the opportunity to choose which one...but I kind of feel like it will be a surprise for him, with Becca being the last girl out of the limo or something. I think that Becca is one of the few girls in the franchise that, on paper, makes sense for Ben so I could see TPTB making that decision without input from Ben.

I do think she'll either be gone very early on, like Kacie, or make it very far like Nick. It will be interesting to see what happens. I wonder if people's opinions about her return will change if she/Ben end up together.

My opinion will stay the same.  She is not the gal that Ben needs to end up with.  I am sure there will be some good gals on Ben's season, I just don't see him with a girl who will so easily forget a date like Becca did with Jared.  And Ben will also be judging her on what he has seen of her on her SM sites.  Sorry but she has not impressed me.

Can't say that I disagree. I was such a fan of hers last season, but the roofie joke, constant endorsements on IG, and standing up Jared, aka the nicest guy in the world, has changed my opinion. If it wasn't true, she would have denied it on Twitter, just like she did immediately when any rumors about her and Chris started.

Oh, how things can change! Just a couple months ago, Nick and Becca were two of my favorite people from this franchise and now they both annoy me, haha.

IA What we know of Ben, IMO she just isn't his type at all. I'm looking forward to seeing that instant attraction with some gal out of the limo!

Thanks RJ for sharing the email.

Becca's best friend started following Reality Steve on Twitter . She did the same thing last September-November when the show was filming.

Jesus, gone for a day for work and come back to news Becca is gonna be on? Not surprising, although only slightly since RJ made it really clear she wasn't gonna come back. Oh well, Becca would have been better on Ben's season than Prince Farming.

One positive...Becca is one of the easiest persons for me to sleuth out in screen caps. She has a very distinctive profile.

I liked Becca on Chris' season, and followed her for a little while on SM, and still liked her SM personality. Although, I understand the "immature" comment, because I know that I have viewed some of her posts that way, in the past. She may not fit the type I'd hang out with, but there is still a lot that I like about her. She is kind, and that's huge for me!

For some reason, I don't think we've been exposed to the "real" Ben. So, whether they will be a good fit remains to be seen...assuming that she does go on his season.

@beccatilley5
Do your best. Be happy. Be respectful. Be kind. Know that not everyone is going to like you. And be okay with that. ❤️❤️


Very fitting with what she's about to do. Whatever happens, I just hope that she ends up alright and is happy. It'd kill me (and a lot of other people) to see her get hurt. She deserves nothing but eternal happiness.

^ Yeah, I dont know if I really know Ben. I wished she did give Jared a chance though (if she was in any way interested)! She has better luck with him than going back on the show for Ben IMO.

She better really like this guy, like 100 times more than she did Chris, and actually show some emotion about it, otherwise would any of this be worth it...?

How is general perception of Becca? Would the majority be happy to have her back on the show? Or no?

She does like him a lot more than she liked Chris. With that said, Becca isn't ready to get married and have a family tomorrow. Not that there's anything wrong with that. If she ends up being F1, my best guess as of today is that she would be more open to a proposal, although I think by far the most likely scenario is her being fully committed to a relationship with him. They would date and then a proposal sometime down the line. Remember, she still has never been in love. Even with Ben, she's not going to say she loves him just to get a ring or because that's what he would like to hear. That I can promise you. If she is F1 and they get engaged, it is because she truly loves him. She didn't succumb to the pressure of the producers to drop the L-bomb last season, and I don't see her succumbing to it this time.

It should be interesting to see what Ben does, especially since the previous Bachelor proposed, so he has the option of not proposing. Let's just say that the producers didn't give Chris that same option. Well, at least not to his knowledge.

I am really hopeful that she will go on. From the time we first met Ben, I thought he was a good match for Becca.
RJ, do we know if there has been communication between the two?

She is such a sweet person, I don't think she has to worry about people not liking her. I do think it will be interesting to see if she gets a totally different edit. She referenced "her edit" from last season in her post here, maybe she will make an effort to show other facets of her personality - as we have seen on SM?
Becca and CS were not suited for one another - hope we see her fall in deep like/ or maybe love.

I just dont want Ben wasting his time on Becca, if it's not going to go anywhere from her end.

So Becca, if you're reading this, DONT WASTE BENS TIME (or yours.)
