It’s been almost as eventful a post-“Bachelor” week than that ridiculous two-night, four-hour season finale that saw Peter Weber show just how wishy-washy he can be, and his mother Barb become the breakout star — albeit villain — of the season.
It turns out the woman, who said live on national television that all of Peter’s friends and family knew a relationship wouldn’t work with his “final girl” choice, Madison Prewett, was right. Barb took a lot of heat for saying this relationship wouldn’t last before giving it a chance, but she was definitely right … and quicker than anyone could have guessed.
Just two days after the explosive finale that saw Peter propose to Hannah Ann Sluss and then break up with her becuase he couldn’t “give his whole heart” to her (because he was still hung up on both former “Bachelorette” Hannah Brown and Madison) and then have Chris Harrison fly Madison out for “After the Rose” where the couple(?) fought with Peter’s family and decided to take it one day at a time.
One day.
Two days.
That’s all she wrote. Well, not really. Actually, Madison had plenty to write on Thursday night as she (hopefully) brought this whole messy, messy saga to an end. Seriously, we need all of these people to just go away and stay away.
Except for Hannah Ann. Her, we like.
“I have learned the importance of acceptance, forgiveness, and grace,” Madison said of her time affiliated with “The Bachelor” franchise. “As Peter and I have decided to go our separate ways, I am confident that we will both move in the direction of our purpose and never forget that God has a plan in all things.”
“I will always love and respect him,” she continued, referring to Peter. “I am convinced our paths were meant to cross and we are both better because they did.”
Peter also posted a statement via his Instagram page, where he said that he “learned so many lessons” from the women who were a part of his season.
Speaking directly to Madison, he wrote, “Thank you for your patience and unconditional love. You’re the epitome of a woman who carries herself with grace, stands by what she believes in, and loves whole heartedly. That love is something I feel so grateful to have felt and will take a piece of that with me always going forward.”
Basically, it sounds like the past two days were a continuation of the long conversation they had in Australia while Barb waited (heatedly) inside with Peter’s family to finally meet Madison. The reality is that Peter and Madison were not only on two separate pages with their lifestyles and morals and beliefs, they were likely in two different books.
Peter then shared some words for the woman he jilted so bad, Hannah Ann, telling her he takes full responsibility for the failings in their short engagement and telling her, “you set an example for women everywhere a couple nights ago. You are such a strong, confident woman and you deserve all the love in the world.”
Hannah Ann was mum when asked on “Ellen” this week whether or not she thought Peter and Madison could possibly make it, which kind of seemed to say it all. You can check out her talking about it with guest host Sean Hayes below, and then keep bugging ABC to make her the next-next “Bachelorette”:
