Did anyone else catch CH telling Jared he did a great job hosting? I thought the same thing as well and wondered if he and/or Ashley could be in line to take over for CH sometime soon.

@luvstx I caught that too. I always thought Ben H would be one considered in line when I thought CH might be on his way out.

Was thinking Nick might be a replacement for CH.

I think Ashley and Jared would do a great job co-hosting something together. They do interviews for articles and other people's podcasts well together. Honestly, I hope they spread their wings and do some things out of the Franchise. Even though their wedding isn't going to be televised, I was hoping that they would do something else for it for fans to see whether it be a video on Youtube or something along those lines.

Perhaps BIP cohosting? I think the format of that show lends itself to younger viewers so CH may be tired of it. I did, however, really like CH as BWG host. It could be good. Kaitlyn mentioned she would be interested in co-bartending with Wells (perhaps jking -hard to tell with her) but having Wells, Kaitlyn, Ash, and Jared on BIP as staff would give BIP a whole new look.

Just a thought.

It would. However, Ash and Jared are getting married in August -- I doubt they'd have time to be gone a whole month. They've done some wedding planning, but I still think they have a fair amount to do. Also, I really think they might be having a upcoming web series they are shooting right now and hopefully, it will include some of the wedding planning and if not the ceremony--then maybe parts of it. I am thinking with Kinetic Content which did The Story of Us (Ashley's relationship series and the medium in which they told their love story, too). I also think that Jade and Tanner might be involved as well as Ashley's sister, Lauren and Nick in some capacity as well. If that's true--I say kudos to them! ABC and The Bachelor Franchise shouldn't be the end all, be all for any of the contestants. JMO.

I’m feeling very mushy about my Bachelor journey right now. It actually has been a true personal journey! Five years ago when I sent in my audition tape and got a call from casting, I felt good about my chances of making it on the show. But not even in my grand Pisces dreams, did I think it would lead me to ALL of the following:
The love of my life
Achieving my aspired career goals
A unique, intense class of-sorts in personal discovery and growth
The opportunity to work as a correspondent for the best host in all the land, @chrisbharrison FOUR YEARS after I made my first appearance on the show...I would be a totally different person today if it wasn’t for this show. I don’t know where I’d be in any aspect of life, but I know it’s impossible for me to be happier than I am now. I am forever grateful to The Bachelor franchise and family (on screen and behind the camera) for helping craft the life I live today and the person I’ve become.
P.S. @theyearofelan, Father, thank you for co-captaining this journey with me. The experience will never be the same. Ok, I’m gonna go cry now.

Ashley has laid it out far better than what I was trying to say the other day somewhere around here.

These contestants go on this show for whatever reason, and some of them come out of the show lives changing for the better if they have a good head on their shoulders. As much as Ashley annoyed me while in front of the camera, that message is very sweet. Her words are confirming she is truly grateful.

I really liked Ashley's recent Instagram post, I think she is truly grateful for what has come her way. Ashley is a go getter, and that's a quality I admire in her. Some may think she's a weak or frail person because of all the crying she does, but I personally think she's a very strong women. She's gone after the career she wanted, successfully, stuck to her values, and held out for her prince charming. I also really admire that she and Jared are planning their wedding on their terms and not waiting for an abc handout.

Ashley and Jared are filming in Cancun today with Evan and Carly. Bizarrely someone in my Instagram feed has been posting pictures and stories about it all day. My friend is on her honeymoon in Cancun.

brides.com just published an article and photos from Ashley and Jared's engagement/pre-wedding photo shoot if someone wants to bring the link over. The photos look good IMO.
