Love and Heartbreak Unfold on ‘The Bachelorette’ Season Finale – Who Will Charity Pick?
It all comes down to this.
Bachelor Nation fans have been watching Charity Lawson look for love on this season of “The Bachelorette.”
Now, next week is the live three-hour finale where we finally find out who she is handing out her final rose to.
In the teaser for next week’s episode, we start off by seeing Aaron B. make his return and Charity finally reveals her reaction to him coming back to fight for her.
He says, “I still see you as my wife. I still see you as the mother of my children. There’s life coming back into me now. Kissing Charity feels like this all wasn’t for nothing and I’m right back in it emotionally.”
Charity shares, “I’m glad that he did not give up on this and that he saw me as someone worth fighting for, but it is this new added layer of pressure. Now, I am reconsidering everything.”
Dotun and Charity’s connection continues to grow, with him saying, “There is no question in my mind that I want you to be my wife.”
And Joey feels similarly, sharing, “This was the most special night that we’ve had together. I’m very much in love with Charity and I want this to end with us engaged.”
Charity begins to struggle and says her brain feels “clouded,” as she’s torn on what decisions to make.
She says, “I am in love, and I know that I am getting engaged, but I don’t know who it’s going to be. I never imagined being in love with three incredible guys, but for the first time in all of this, I’m truly not okay.”
Dotun, Joey, and Aaron B. all express their nerves as well, with Dotun saying, “I’m very nervous. Every second that ticks down closer to the proposal, there’s a little bit more doubt. I can’t imagine Charity with anybody else but me.”
And tensions rise when Charity has a candid conversation with her mom about her upcoming big decision.
She says, “I really need help. My mom is truly my best friend, so her opinion is everything to me. I want to know your thoughts.”
Charity’s mom shares that she can’t reveal her thoughts on it and that Charity needs to make the decision for herself.
She says, “Deep down inside you, I believe you know. You have to make that decision. Charity, you — you have to be the one to say it.”
Charity is seen on proposal day crying and says she feels like she’s going to have a panic attack because she’s so torn.
The teaser ends with the Bachelorette saying, “You are not supposed to say goodbye to somebody that you love.”
Make sure to tune in live to “The Bachelorette” next Monday at 8 p.m. on ABC to see how it all unfolds!
