Congrats Jared and Ashley! What a love story this has turned out to be!

Any bets on them reading that letter that took three days to write and made her cry while she was reading it?

I had this vision of a 1 hour special in 3 parts of “The Letter”.

Oh boy. Engaged. Good luck with that.

Color me shocked that they did it on TV.

Ashley first came on screen as a Kardasian so yep.  More than anyone she embodies the girl entrenched in modern day fairytales as storyboarded on reality tv.
I do think it’s a genuine relationship. It’s just so OTT public which is tedious.

Well I'm happy for them! I know they can be ott with their pda and constant interviews about their relationship, but this is a couple who knows and understands each other way more than any other bachelor couple at the point of their engagement. I think it'll last based on all the things they've gone through. It also jives with what they've both said since being public, which is that they know this relationship is it for them.

If they could stop being so annoying for more than one second, then maybe I could get onboard with their bliss. Jmso

IMO she caught her fairytale, dream prince finally. Wonder how long it takes for her to realize he is simply a frog.

 once they went public about dating I think it was a done deal. Because Jared was still saying he was single on his podcast right up to the dating announcement IMO they were using that period of time to talk through everything and gain mutual certainty. Ashley has always referred to him as her person so he had to be there, see her as likewise, before they became a public couple. JMO
I too think it’s great for them. Not very relatable for me but everyone deserves someone.

I'm happy for them but more upset that this inevitably means they'll keep appearing on my TV screen. Engagement, wedding, first kid, etc. I guess Ashley crying fake tears of bliss is better than her other tears.
