Doubts and Feelings Grow as the Women Fall for Mel: ‘What if He Doesn’t Catch Me?’
Is love in the air?
After an eventful week of sexy, fun-filled dates, Mel and the women are starting to form strong connections and get closer to possible Hometown visits.
Drama also began to brew as it was speculated that some of the women may not be there for the right reasons.
Now, as we wait to see what happens, we got a glimpse into next week’s episode in a brand new teaser.
In the sneak peek, we see Mel and multiple of the women practicing meditation in the mountains as someone is overheard saying, “I invite you to allow your heart to open. To know that true beauty that lies inside of you.”
Mel states that he believes “in energy and electricity and magnetism” and sparks begin to fly as he enjoys a romantic date with Cindy.
The two are seen horseback riding on the “Trail of Love” before looking at the night sky at an observatory. And Cindy confesses, “He’s the sun, the moon, and the stars for me. I see a forever with Mr. Mel Owens.”
The Golden Bachelor also gets cozy in a mud bath with Peg as she spells out “LOVE” on his chest. And both Cheryl and Debbie decide to confess their feelings.
However, as Mel claims that “everything is going great,” things take a turn as Cheryl runs to inform the other women that she saw “a black SUV pulled up.”
The women are shocked as someone goes home, and the Golden Bachelor admits, “I’m sad that she left. It’s tough.”
The teaser ends with some of the women in tears and Cindy questions, “I wanted to fall in love, but what if he doesn’t catch me?”
Tune in on Wednesday at 8 p.m. on ABC or stream the next day on Hulu to see what happens next week on “The Golden Bachelor”!
