ABC had her down as 26 when Chris's contestants were announced. She can't be older than 28 right?

I think she is 28. I think the US sourced the same site I did that incorrectly stated year as 1984.
Her bestie is 28 and I know the story of how they met etc.
Another source I just found states: 10-30-88.

She's definitely not 32. 28 or 29, depending on if she turned 26 or 27 during Chris's season.

Prime example of how US weekly does not fact check it's work. That's simply sloppy.

Becca just turned 28.

Yes, it was posted above--10-30-88.

I find Becca so attention-seeking and annoying. Good for her and Robert, but she annoys me. Now she is bestie with Jojo, she is back to the spotlight using Jojo's fame.

@StacyNor IA this is like a big announcement making it official like important celebrities after posting SM together for months. Rolling Eyes

and he's just amazing and been patient with me.

The happy couple first sparked relationship rumors earlier this year
usmagazine.com

Not that I need confirmation but I have no doubt Robert has been patient with her, and that it was probably Becca that was the one to hold off on making it public.

IMO he's a good guy. He will IMO do whatever it takes to make her happy. I hope she reciprocates and they have a good happy relationship.

Speaking of her birthday I just watched this Tone It Up video posted the other day. It was filmed right before her birthday I think, since they mentioned it was coming up and brought her a birthday cupcake. In the video she says she's single and it's referred to a few times, so they were not an official couple at the time, as speculated. I don't know what happened in Vegas or right after that seemed to make them not even hang out for a month (unless they were just busy, not really my business), but by all evidence they weren't a proper couple until that New York trip a month ago or so.

Oh please, no! Between the idea of that and Jam getting a wedding special, I'm thinking I may have to completely give up on the show for good.

Yup, add in having to watch our current Bachelor lead again and I'm pretty much there. My Gen-Xer self doesn't feel that much older than these people, but I do feel like I've finally become to old to relate to many of the cast and their obsession with self promotion IMO. It's beyond me at this point.

sosleepy wrote:Idk. I honestly don't follow Becca, so I can't speak to how much of an attention seeker she is outside of reading other people's opinions here. Maybe because with Becca there is a slight disconnect? On the farmer's season, while she was dull, she really seemed to have her head screwed on straight. Level headed, virgin and not in an OTT dramatic Ashley I. way, just in a "this is who I am and what I believe" matter of fact way. She didn't seem to get wrapped up in the process and didn't fawn all over Chris. Based on that, maybe people expected her to be one of the more normal Bachelor alumni? Ala Whitney/Chantal? Like maybe people were initially holding her to higher standards or expecting better from her? Level headed girls that retreat to normal life, though.... That type is rare, especially now-a-days. Pretty much Becca is on par with all the rest of them.

This is me exactly. I loved Becca on Chris' season for all the reasons you said above. But that first impression was misleading to who she seems to really want to be IMO. That's OK though and I hope she finds a happy, adult relationship.
