Bekah Martinez - Bachelor 22 - Discussion

Congrats to her! (& him too obvs ).

I think the only thing changing with her is perhaps daily clean clothes and IMO that, too could be questionable.

Did anyone watch the video? It was so real, almost too real. Her BF was basically like ok if I have to have a kid, I'll stick around and do what I have to do, I guess. Just an odd tone but Bekah's always been honest to a fault so I commend her for not trying to fake her way through this.

He said they'll have a kid before 1 year of dating, which makes me wonder if it happened faster than 3 months.

Anyway, she seems happy and said this has been a dream for her. I wasn't that much older than her when I had my first (although planned and married), but I think/hope she'll be a great mom.

Agree with you who think she'll be a good mom.

It seems like a Kiptyn situation. At the very least, it seems like she'll be a really great mother even if the relationship doesn't last. Just think she needs to grow up a teeny bit (like it's crazy she was getting into the drama over Tia days after she found out she was pregnant), but it does seem like she's changing!

A kid will grow her up fast.  Nothing like forcing you to adult more than having an actual child to support. Not that I think this ideal by any stretch... but it is what it is, and at least she’s being real and positive about it. She’ll be ok.

Not always. Just look at Amanda.

I wasn't expecting that news but I wish her much luck with her baby (& relationship).

Eh. Not super popular in these parts, but I think Amanda does fine. It’s not an ideal situation, and certainly I (hope) I’d make different choices if given her hand of cards... but being a mom, especially a single mom is a hard gig. Edit

Congratulations to my little mama and papa Gray!! Can’t wait to meet your beautiful bundle of joy I couldn’t think of a more nurturing, strong spirit

Hallmark moments. Yep.
“If I have to be a dad”.

I couldn't stop looking at the mess. Glad to hear he feel's if he has to do it he will. Ok. She always wanted to be a mom, in all her 23 yrs.

Good luck to both of them. I hope she realizes this is for life and she might not have time to make cutsie vids. OTOH I'm sure she will.

She said on Reddit that the kitchen was a mess because they moved in to their apartment the day before filming this.

Also interesting that Kendall said on Almost Famous this week that she left to film Paradise knowing that Bekah was pregnant but unsure if she was keeping the baby. She said it wasn’t until after filming when Bekah told her she was keeping it. I just assumed it was never a question in Bekah’s mind, but looks like she considered an abortion. Not that there’s anything wrong with that imo, totally her choice! I just wondered if it was ever an option for her.
