Ali Fedotowsky & Kevin Manno - Bachelorette 6 - Discussion

veg_out wrote:Interesting! Either Ali is rewriting history to downplay Roberto, or this info confirms the crazy info that came out that season. Notice that she didn't describe her feelings for Frank, but she said that she'd probably have slept with him b/c you're not going to get engaged to someone otherwise!

She was that confused that late?

Here's my favorite part of the article, talking about Roberto, Frank, and Chris L.

When you were holding the reins on “The Bachelorette”, were you ever tempted to just spill it to Roberto when the cameras were off that he was the one?

I didn’t. I’ve actually never told anyone this so this could be a juicy detail but Roberto was my first overnight date, then it was Chris and Frank was my last one. I knew it was [down to] Roberto or Frank. I was still torn a bit but I was pretty sure it was Roberto [who was going to be the final one]. I don’t know if you remember my season but Frank left me in Tahiti so I was pretty sure it was Roberto but there was still something inside of me that was [thinking], ‘What if?’ and I didn’t want to tell Roberto that. The funny thing is, I actually told Roberto on our first date back in L.A. that he was the one. I sent Chris home and didn’t let him propose to me because I didn’t want to put him through that and Frank left me to go back to a girlfriend he had in Chicago but if I had known Frank wasn’t going to be around I would have told Roberto in the suite that it was going to be him … I’ve never told anybody that! See give me a few drinks and I’ll tell you anything, you are smart ladies!

Speaking of that fantasy suite, Ed Swiderski from Season 5 told us a little about what goes down. Does it get as risqué as we’d like to imagine?

I will say this much, I only got physical with one person. I think it’s pretty obvious who that was! For me, it was a little bit different. I had one guy I was really into, one guy I knew was just a friend and then the third guy left me. So would I have gotten physical with more than one guy if he would have stuck around? Probably. Are you going to get engaged with someone not knowing what they are like in bed? No!

What was the crazy info? Cliff Notes version? (Sorry, I was not on the boards back then.)

Most of it can be found on FORT. The gist was that Frank was her F1 and the days in Tahiti were not as smooth as they appeared in the final product.

The final date with Robertoohotobehuman and the season really did confirm that she was in love with R, so I do think that she's whipping up some revisionist history here. It's interesting to me that she can share some of the secrets of her season on her blog.

*rolls eyes* I never really believe whatever comes out of that girl's mouth anymore...she's a good spin artist and nobody should take her too seriously with how she spins the truth for her own interests. only her actions communicate anything to me anymore and i was a huge fan of hers at some point...have lost all trust in her since ...she's not hiding it anymore too seems like she's describing herself as a 'sharer' of course she loves the attention - I really think the rumors about frank being top 2 possibly even f1 might have had an inkling of truth in them ...i mean see what she's saying about chicago boys in the rest of the article!! they're now her favorite?? ha! well frank is all of a chitown boy

I wonder if the reason she is spinning is to stick it a bit to Roberto? He has a serious girlfriend and she is apparently ready to date, but not seeing anyone. I think it may be a bit of jealousy.

Is it the same serious gf from Survivor that he had before?
