How do we know that was tptb?

Thank goodness they have cut ties with each other. I am sure both sides are happy with that.

Having to do Bach things when you don't want to. Who needs that.

I say, do your season and move on and don't be puppets. Thats what I love about Kait and Shawn. Its just about them. They make no apologies. They are not perfect and I adore them for it.

If TPTB wants nothing to do with them, I say they got off lucky.

I am not sure but I remember millsy tweeted about some
Bachelor nation will be at the CMA to represent them before the actual cma night though .

I am not sure why it is such a bad thing for not getting tptb invitations. I agree Nikki, get ur initial exposure,  find love and keep it moving.

ROFL. Yeah who wants to be in a McDonald's commercial? I'm sure Ben, SeanCat, Chres and Farmer Chris were in tears and so upset that they were forced to appear in commercials that will be watched by thousands of viewers next season. Please. K&S would've come running in a heartbeat if TPTB had been the least bit interested. What else have they got to do? But I have no doubt they tell themselves they're lucky and so much better off to make themselves feel better about being unwanted.

I wonder if this is why they have their panties in a bunch lately?

Blu I love your sarcasm and snark.... I agree K and S would have jumped at it if they were invited. It must hurt not to be regarded and included in the cool kids alum club by tptb

I really don't think they care one way or another if they are invited. Being exposed by Tptb just means you owe them down the road. They are obligated for a bit longer, but hey if they are not invited, it is a sigh of relief IMO.

There are many more that would love the McDonald exposure or any other event for that matter. I don't take it as a snub. I consider myself lucky. (plus I hate mcdonalds.)

It's funny because TPTB seemed pretty uninterested in Chres after their season, but now that they have a very recent "success story", they'd rather have Chres. Perhaps this was a married couples only event, since they're confident Ben will be joining that club. Though that doesn't explain Chris Soules being there.

That's the point . Would that be great if they throw them in there since for sure that would be cool since they are a recent one and fresh in everyone's memory while approaching ben's season. Just saying .

I'm sure TPTB are just jealous insecure bullies who wish that their lives were awesome as K & S.  

It sure looks to me that K & S are always looking for any media promotion tidbit that is thrown their way.  I seriously doubt they are happy to not be offered Bach/Ette franchise perks.  Bitter seems more likely to me.   Poor Kaitlyn getting paid all that money to be the Ette lead and all the publicity that comes with it. I'm sure her life is soooo hard.

McDonald's is icky but it's gotta sting to be excluded when you're the most recent lead/couple. They included Prince Farming who isn't even with his pick anymore. It's pretty obvious they don't care for her. Price to pay for being a bad lead I guess.

ETA: Not that Prince Farming was amazing or anything but Kaitlyn broke rules, could hardly fake interest in more than 2 people, etc.
