I do think he is right about Andrew.  Andrew followed The Bachelor IG account when he got got back.  It would seem like a weird follow if he is engaged.  JMO.

I have to agree, I think it's looking like either Greg or Blake as her F1

I agree with you.  I think Justin had some Twitter activity prior to filming ending.  I didn’t capture a screenshot unfortunately.  I go back and forth on Greg and Blake.  

I agree with this as well & think it’s either Blake or Greg. At this point, leaning towards it being Blake as F1.

RS just posted that Katie is engaged to Blake

My gut still tells me that Greg mainly went on the show to buff up his acting resume, and was in no way ready for an engagement. My feeling is that he likely exits of his own accord towards the end, as reality starts to close in.

I don't think that Greg's sister would be quite so salty if Greg and Katie were a couple.

Blake makes the most sense as Katie's final one. He reached out via social media to her before her season then contacted Tayshia to follow up, then in his words "shows up". Surprise, he has the right intentions and is there for her!!! By the time he appears she was already doubting what guys were there for the right reasons thanks to Cody, Aaron, Karl, & Thomas and later Greg. Blake was all in, ready to commit, and made it obvious. Tayshia gave clue that the ending had never happened before. A comeback contestant for Bachelorette ends up as her Final One? Other pluses, he really has beautiful eyes, an actual career, and the distance between Seattle & Canada is just a few hours drive. I can't wait to see their love story.

I'm not saying that Andrew S. and Justin are not viable as potential F1s, but literally everything about Blake adds up. He's mature, he is gainfully employed and has a direction in life, is a decent guy, and knows how the show works. He showed up late which means he specifically wanted to be there for Katie in the same way that Nick Viall wanted to make a bid for Kaitlyn. More than anything, both Blake and Katie seem to be very compatible and on the same page about many things. I can see it.

@Luvstruck Seattle is not that far to British Columbia and Vancouver, but Blake is from Hamilton, Ontario which is an hour from me. That is closer to Buffalo and Detroit. So still not exactly a hop, skip and a jump. Plus there were all the Covid restrictions. If she has had both her shots, now there are no more quarantine requirements for her so that should make things easier.

I don’t see Blake mature somehow… falling in love with Clare… then crushing on Tayshia…. Then shortly after Katie…

Seems either desperate and emotionally needy. Imo

He said he had 3 serious relationships. He is 30. Meaning an average of 3 years each. Even said the 4th would have difficulty to top those relationships…. Said in his promo with Clare. Said he dates older women too.

First thing his hockey buddy next to him, Blake said… I know you think I am not mature.

Because he has a job and a beard doesn’t mean he is mature imo

However, he is career driven. Loves animals. Loves his dogs. Loves nature. That’s high qualities in my book.

It will be interesting to see how prods will edit him

I hope he grows on me because for now he gives me nuthin’.

Same. Not impressed so far.
