Bachelorette South Africa - Qiniso Van Damme - Episodes - Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] imo Swazis father maybe saying waiting until after FR then he is going to start the negativity but as a joke. Swazis father seems to never miss an opportunity to comment. His family have certainly enjoyed being apart of Qs season.
Didn’t Jason asked the guys mid season who they thought was biggest threat and Swazi stated G ? So imo u r correct that he is self protecting. Is it traditionally the f3 that becomes the bachelor ? Maybe he wants that gig so tried to leave last week but now is the heart broken f2 ? IMO the f2,3,4 must feel a combination of gratitude that stayed long enough for max exposure but used as obv G f1. I’m sure production would have been feeding their egos hence imo Swazi confusion.

For sure he thinks it's funny.  Would you say those things if your son was f1?  Better to keep your thoughts to yourself imo.  

I'm sure production is telling the guys lots of things.  Sorry for bringing up Marc's season yet again, but did you hear in their last q&a that TPTB told Marisia that Marc didn't like her just before their date.  And reading between the lines, it seems they told the f2 that he was going to pick her.  Crazy stuff.  You can only imagine what bs they are spinning to get into the guys' heads.

Can't tell anything from this, the guys are wearing the same coloured suits

That clip is so underwhelming. this is the finale - where is the excitement ?

The only thing I could see and I watchd it 10 times, Swazi has a tie, rather than a bowtie, his watch looks larger than Gareth and he's wearing a dark rope? like bracelet. Any significance to the bracelet?

Also, it may be spliced but she says follow my heart, not see it coming.

Could this be the ring G is holding?

Yes the promo was lackluster even Qiniso presenting the final rose to her choice was all non-chalant.

I tried to zoom in on the pic.  I think the ring has small diamonds on the band.

First thing first… thank you to Loulou and chasus71! Without you I wouldn’t have been able to follow her season!

My thoughts from day 1 was the edits favoured Garrett. He had the typical F1 edit. Zoomed when subject was “love” or “jealousy” or “friendship”. I very early on noticed the ease they both had. I think they fell in love organically. Both trusting friendship go first.

Swazi is a dark horse and saw early on Garett was her person. She kept saying she wanted him to tell her his feelings, she never knew, etc. Reason is simple. Swazi is smart and saw no reason to commit when he had no chance. So he liked her, maybe fell in love with her but why would he give all of himself when he knew it was not reciprocated?

The finale teaser used frankenbites… we do not see her saying it is a surprise (not verbatim). They added this like every single season worldwide to create final suspense. But if we think clearly what she said to Garett mother and sister… she committed herself openly…. Vs Swazi all was hidden (hands under table, no futur commitment, etc)

Every date with Garett were more intimate, open for discussion…. Vs Swazi more physical. For me typical F1 vs F2.

Of course she could pick Swazi for reasons of her own but I would be chocked.

I thought her season was unnecessary long. They dragged and dragged the episodes. Not enough cut at ceremonies. It would be so much more interesting and intriguing to see more dates with the top 6…

Overall it was a feast of beautiful outfits wore by a beautiful girl. I was just ready to the finale 3 weeks ago…

Thanks again for the clip shares!
