Mel Must Choose Between His Final 2 Women; Plus: Emotions Run High at the ‘Women Tell All’ — See the Teaser
Tears and drama.
After a whirlwind week of meeting the families of his final three women at Hometowns, Mel is headed off to Antigua with his final two women, Cindy and Peg.
In the teaser for what’s to come, Cindy and Peg are seen flying in a helicopter and going on dates with Mel as he expresses, “We’re in Antigua and I’m trying to choose between two incredible women. It has been a profound experience, so good.”
Cindy states that she is “leaving this island hand-in-hand with a ring on my finger.” And Peg declares, “I am capable of love and I am capable of having somebody love me back.”
Mel tells Peg that he loves being around her, but Peg expresses some concern, saying, “I’ve learned to look for the fireplace. The fireworks, they burn out.”
She then tells the Golden Bachelor, “At 62, I don’t have another five to seven years to waste.” And Cindy also begins to have some doubts, sharing, “I kind of want my guy to feel like he got struck by lightning and can’t live without me.”
Mel is then seen sitting alone as he looks off into the distance and fireworks explode above him.
But that’s not all! We also got a sneak peek into the “Women Tell All,” where the Golden ladies are ready to spill the tea.
Robin starts off by feeling the love and tells Jesse Palmer, “These incredible women, this is truly the love story of the season.”
Emotions then run high as drama sparks between Nicolle and the other women after she claims she was “kind of the trailblazer.”
Amy says she has “a built-in BS detector” and Debbie tells Nicolle, “You dismissed us.” Later, Debbie gets emotional as she discusses her relationship with Mel and admits, “I don’t think he saw me the same way that I saw him.”
The teaser then ends with Nicolle in tears as she tells Mel, “My feelings for you were really, really genuine.”
