Bachelorette 15 - Hannah Brown - Media - SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #9

@bleuberry Ok. I thought you were saying she was maybe going to choose Tyler but switched to Jed. I was saying  I can’t see Hannah slating Tyler for F1 so a switch from Tyler to Jed I can’t see. Just doesn’t align with what we’ve seen on our screens. Tyler barely made it past Pete. If there was a switch, it was from the frontrunner to Tyler at the last minute. IMO

I can’t see Hannah planning on picking Tyler. Jed has been F1 forever. I think maybe her parents got to her or just Tyler did. In her recent interview with Zima she mentioned how she realized during FD she just couldn’t let Tyler go. Zima then asked, did you? And she laughed and said, “we’ll see” I think Tyler was the one she couldn’t let go though she was planning to and had been planning to since before fantasy dates.

Totally explains her demeanor right after filming. I have been of the opinion that she was wearing her pageant smile in those interviews those first couple of weeks. I still think she had second thoughts about it almost immediately. Once she got home, she had time to really reflect on everything. I honestly don't think the decision to break it off was very hard for her.

Again, IMO.

Hannah said to Jed: I am falling in love, I am more sure of you Mr Jed Wyatt

No way she would let go jed completely but maybe she waited her return to date him.

The only person who said she left engaged with a ring is RS. So did he see a picture of the FRC?

One theory I had when Jed first confessed to being on the show to further his career, and before Haley's story came out, was that bringing Jed to F2 was a strategy they were all in on.

That is, there was an understanding on Hannah's part that she would keep him on as long as possible to "help" him get the exposure.

Since then, sleuthing disproved this theory. And yet, I can't help wondering if viewing Hannah and Jed as a showmance to advance their careers explains it better than viewing it as a love match. It's all so fishy.

Jed is the ONLY guy she said she was falling in love.... not Tyler...

I think FD changed everything for Hannah. I think she knew she was in love with Tyler when he walked away and she got emotional. My sister and friends are unspoiled and all think she is picking Tyler. If not Tyler then Peter.

I disagree. FD put Tyler past Peter but I don’t think it pushed him past Jed, who has been F1 in her eyes forever. He was the one she was planning on choosing in the end. She told him during his FD that she was sure about him. She was crying after Tyler’s FD also because she was planning on letting him go eventually because she was set on Jed. But she still couldn’t let Tyler go in the end.  IMO.

All of my unspoiled friends think this is a race between Peter and Jed because she didnt sleep with Tyler.

Her demeanor in initial interviews was because she didnt end up with who she thought she would. It’s possible she also didnt get engaged, but just decided to date. Her feelings for Jed wouldnt have shut off that quickly because she chose Tyler. JMO

@HEA Exactly, which is why I think he was the one slated for F1, not Tyler. He was the clear frontrunner, even after fantasy suites. IMO

I've been saying all along that Tyler was slated as F1 but she switched to Jed.

Totally explains why RS said Tyler was the F1... if his source was someone affiliated with production. Production knows in advance who is in what spot in order for them to arrive at the ceremony at the right time. Think about it. Someone told RS about Tyler but they may have finished their assignment and left Crete before the switch happened and may not have found out until later when they confirmed it to RS.

I still say she switched to the person that she felt safe with but not necessarily the one she actually wanted. And, no, I don't think she was in love with any of them but she had feelings for all of them. She just didn't have enough time to sort out those feelings. Speed dating is not her friend.

All IMO, but little nuggets along the way tend to make this totally believable. The editing can make anyone appear to be the front runner. I don't think they changed up the editing of any episodes because they knew there was trouble in paradise almost immediately and they had a much bigger story line coming... IMO, the editing has been a typical hide the F1 edit with Tyler being the F1. Keeping the editing as is gives them a much bigger bomb this week.

@Summerfun1980 that's why, for me, the only surprising finale is one where Jed isn't f1.

@HavaDrPepper I’m saying the opposite. Jed is the only one she’s said she was falling in love with. She still didnt say it about Tyler after his fantasy date. She groaned and then cried when he walked off because she was planning on sending him home. Tyler has always been the underdog. Jed has been F1 for weeks and she was planning to choose him. I don’t see anything in the edit showing Hannah planning to chose Tyler. He barely made it to the final 2. JMO

I think RS got word about Tyler first because he was the one she actually left Greece with. The other spoiler account mentioned something about receiving a text from someone higher up saying it’s jed.  Well I think that’s because it was supposed to be Jed. Hannah likely had been telling production it was Jed for weeks.  JMO
