Jillian Harris & Justin Pasutto - Bachelorette 5 - Discussion

I thought that too! Oops. Guess no wedding until baby #2 comes.

and I'm set on Kait preggers before marriage at this point too but at least she and Shawn are in the 'marriage' state more then Jillly who just want a ring unlike Justin. all jmo.

@Alanna nah Shawn gives her the world and was all in from Day 1 unlike Justin. All just from what I've seen on IG. jmo.

By no means am I a prude or very traditional... but then why even “get engaged,” just feels cheap and kinda meaningless to me.

I think the ring was like hush money  not in the traditional sense but, “here’s your ring, now be quiet” kind of sense with no intention to marry ever, regardless of kiddo #2 or not.

And now I’m worried Kait is in the same situation! I empathize like I know them

I'm always so afraid to voice it, because I truly do think Kaitlyn/Shawn are the closest thing I've seen to soulmates on this franchise...but yeah, I do get the feeling she wants it and he doesn't.

And Justin. Ugh. Why, Jilly, WHY? At least she'll get two super cute kiddos out of him.

Maybe I should probably take it over to Kaitlyn and Shawn’s thread... but idk. If they broke up... I wouldn’t be shocked.     

I know, seriously unpopular opinion... but they just seem a little off to me recently, and like on different pages of life or something.

I’m wrong a lot though. So don’t freak.

  I have no problem bringing the K/S discussion to their thread. Thanks.

I hope nobody here "holds their breath" waiting for Jilly and Justin to get married. It is just not going to happen.....ever. JMHOFWIW

Sadly, I think you are right.

It’s like possible in 5-10 years Leo and new baby guilt trip them to the alter. I know of a couple instances of that happening, personally.

I see nothing wrong with Justin. He seems happy, Jillian seems happy, they have an adorable son and another child on the way, a gorgeous home.

I don't follow them closely, I don't watch her s/chats or her vids, I don't even know if she's still doing that obsessively like she previously was but it looks like they are living a great life. There are some people that just don't want to get married, some feel it will jinx the relationship, who knows.

I check their twitters occasionally and he doesn't post a lot but always posts very sweet posts about Jill and Leo.

Justin is younger than Jillian and hopefully is maturing now that he's a father. I don't know what their relationship is like but if Jillian's happy then good for her.

Why does it make you sad....what's wrong with Justin? He seems like a great guy, a great dad, doing great professionally, and dotes on Jillian.....they have a new home, a son and another new one on the way......what can be so wrong with that?? IMO

I think they are doing great....they obviously love on another, great parents, love doing things together and living THEIR lives. Heck, I've known people engaged for 10 yrs, both happy in that and when they did get married, they felt in no way cheapened by being engaged as long as they were. IMO

Again, what's wrong with Justin.....has he been accused of something ugly that I never heard about? He does have companies, does work, is supporting of Jill and their family and has a great family just like Jill so what is so wrong????

@Aunties_Love - I guess I am old fashioned, but I believe in marriage before having children. I know the world is changing and different "living arrangements" are more acceptable today. Just my own feelings.
