Kaitlyn Bristowe - Shawn Booth - Bachelorette 11 - #3 - Discussion

I don't think they're going to be offered a wedding. TPBP likes to strike when the iron is hot, and if KS turned down one wedding offer, they're not getting offered another one.

And yeah, they're welcome to get married on their own, just it can't be televised. This is the contract KS signed, got paid for, too. I don't get the passive agressive whining.

Why would you even bring up the point of ABC suing them if they got married? It's such a derogatory statement to make to the media especially when that's not even the reason you're not getting married. It sounded like it's an excuse.

They aren't even smart enough to realize they don't need to make up excuses, just be honest, we're in no rush, end of story.

If they really wanted to get married, all they would have to do is give production a head's up and follow what was probably laid out in their contract. No reason to assess blame on the show, cast or fans. It's up to them.

It's so laughable their excuse for not getting married is people "pressuring" them.

Let's hope when they do get married, please pressure them with the "when are you having a baby?" Question so they don't have kids 

People should start asking them when they are going on vacation, having a drink, doing a snapchat. It could make them crack.

To be honest their old same reasons "they are very busy ", "they are all over the place " , "the People are pressuring them " blah blah everytime they asked them about when they are getting married " is pure nonsense . I don't get that . Why not just say the real thing . Like you know ? Just say " they are not in a rush and ready as of now and not sure when is that etc ect " just be honest. Sometimes I have to wonder if these two are really playing the public . I don't question their rel . I don't care when they are going to get married . That is their decision. Nothing wrong with that. Just go straight with the answer and stop giving the same answer .pretty obvious they are not very busy . Jmo .

I won't be surprised if they take a more Byron/Mary, Charlie/Sarah trajectory. Stay together for years, deflect and stall on the marriage. Break up years down the line largely due to one (or both) of their alcoholism.

Prove me wrong, Boothstowe. I actually don't hate them, and they do kind of amuse me when they aren't whining and complaining, and in general acting like a bunch of ungrateful and moody middle schoolers. Unfortunately lately I'm seeing that side way more than the tidbits I enjoy about them.

We have had couples together that are in the midst of making families and are not married. Nothing wrong with that. I think it's how this couple actually chooses to answer. It's in the attitude.

Oh for sure! I have no problem with them if they decide to go all untraditional and never marry! They need to live life how it's right and authentic for them! It's just the annoying way they are deflecting and placing blame for not marrying. It's the fan's fault, they are annoyed and want to spite them. No, wait, it's the show's fault and they will sue them if they get married. Just stfu. If they don't want to get married and just want to live together for a thousand years, go for it guys. Do you. Just own the decision. I'd respect them for that.

I agree. ^ Own it. Don't blame it. Don't give excuses. Own it.

Unfortunately Kaitlyn and Shawn have zero ability for honest self reflection. I would suggest they look in the mirror but they do constantly already...they just see an overly inflated image of themselves. IMO the more they b**ch and bash the Franchise the more the door will slam shut on opportunities. All everyone else's fault of course.   JMO   #NoGratitude

I was just thinking this . Not that I'd wish those trajectories on anyone, since they were both pretty sad, but that seems like where they're going. I also pretty much think that neither of them is ready to get married. They're one of the "older" (age-wise) Bachelor couples and yet one of the least mature and both have some serious growing up to do. Oh well, at least when they do "Marriage Boot Camp" / "Couples Therapy" it should be really entertaining.
