I really felt like this was true love. I could feel his love and I found out after that he started to run after her,and the producers stopped him! I really think he was trying to say just trust me Rachel, let me propose to you in my way ,he wanted it to be special and done his way. I know he hasn't had a serious relationship since then.I think he was beyond devastated, and I think she would have chosen him but wanted the proposal. I didn't like Brian at all.
Ant rip She is constantly ripping him publicly, accusing him of stringing her along, manipulating, etc. It is so damn obvious what is on her mind, and it aint Bryan. Her own sister refuses to accept her decision.
I agree and their connection was up the roof see how they identically fix their clothes they look like a clone. This is soulmate . Peter even stated at her parent's house that he felt like their connection was from the greater source.
OMG Yes. I thought I was the only one that noticed that. I almost feel like he was going to whisper something to her but he changed his mind. Rachel is foolish. I'm sorry but I don't believe Rachel and Brian are going to last.
She was forced to do what she did...she sounded like she was gonna wait the day before, but she had to do what the contract said. Did you see when she came out in that final dress? She looked a mess and tired... I bet she cried all night
Sade Akinfe GIRL YES!!!! LOL. I honestly think that Peter was meant for HER. I’m sorry but I truly wouldn’t be ready to marry someone in 9 weeks. You would have to take the relationship into the actual outside world and out in reality for me to have that clarity. I believe it was Peter....not fake cheeks chipmunk Bryan who says whatever women want to hear to get what he wants.
Good for her. She wasn’t going to compromise what she wanted in order to meet him at a level where he was comfortable. She came on the show for a reason and made those intentions clear from the start. Wish more women were willing to do that.
This. This perfectly sums it up. It blows my mind how many women are going crazy for Peter just because he's good looking. Well done to Rachel for seeing past that and not settling.
Same here 😭😭😭😭😭 Production did them dirty. They inteferred too much and didn't allow for things to naturally progress 😭😭😭😭 I'll forever be heartbroken 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This the realest, most heart-wrenching, most beautiful depiction of reality I have EVER seen on this show. No proposal, no other breakup, no emotional dates, EVER, have come close to this. Incredible.
shannon nesbitt he could have wished her well without the use of that word for sure. It's definitely hard to know that you won't be their person but someone else will in the future.
chempanda I love the flexibility Peter is given...Heat of the moment...But I guess when she flipped her wrist back at him and said she's living her best life, that's just rude, no more heat of the moment ey?
As much as I love rachel and bryan together, I have to admit this has to be one of the hardest breakups I seen on the bachelor/bachelorette. You can tell there really is something there, whether or not they both see it
@@kiaraj7044 beauty is not always in height and a chizel jawline. Hot to me is a man with a good financial life, loves you unconditionally and makes you feel bigger than what you are, and he proposed. Thanks what Brian offered.
Candy xoxo you may have written a paragraph, but that doesn’t mean that your opinion is more valid than mine, in my opinion peter is physically better looking, i never said that he was a better man than brian
She did say he reminded her of her 5 year relationship. She said she had dated many Peters. She is clearly crying for all those past experiences as well. Not just this one. He also got emotional talking about his ex at one of the dates and how he felt he held back from loving her fully. He’s clearly realising he hadn’t changed much and is again letting a good girl go. They’re both not just crying for this particular loss but all other loses in the past and possibly future ones (in Peter’s sake). I personally feel she chose the right guy. Bryan loves her, and she loves him. Despite being drawn to “the Peters”.
@@ninadowell7841 , and when you have taken that chance most of your life, waiting to see it they will eventually propose, you just get tired and have to decide if that is your choice....Bryan loves Rachel to the top of the mountain....
@@111alic Yeah forget what you feel if its not what you deserve, but don't go for what you deserve if its not what you feel - it's about what makes you happy (in the long run). That will not work if you always wander what could have been or are not in it with your heart as well as your head
Ill never forget this scene. So REAL and compelling. See producers, you don't need to stir up tiring drama amongst 21 year olds to make a good tv show. Get mature smart contestants and just let us watch the natural ebb and flow of romance and heartbreak!
@@tahnirene I do too. Rachel proved me wrong with Bryan. They're married and still going strong. Sometimes you have to go with who is reliable than one who stokes your excitement and passion. I will always miss Rachel and Peter.
Peter is the most realis person that has ever been on this show. His plan probably was to get to know Rachel outside of the show for a few months than propose and get married, their is nothing wrong with that.
Allison 9579 then he obviously picked the wrong place to do it. Obviously he's never watched the previous seasons. And I don't think it's the length of time. Their stars are just not aligned right now. But it could've been something awesome. Brachel will have a good life.
Let's be real probably half the guys in real life propose and don't really want to. They love their girlfriends and want to be happy and don't want to lose them, Peter should have proposed. Makes me wonder if he is already in a relationship.
Allison 9579 his fears were founded. Bryan is a much bettee fit. ABC didn't show us enough. I see them both on IG and Peter's life seems fun but not in a Rachel kinda way. They made the right choice.
Wow, looking back at this 3 years later and I'm so happy Rachael chose Bryan. She made the smart choice. Peter may have loved her but he wasn't ready for commitment. When a man really loves you he won't waste time to grab you for himself. The people that were mad at Rachael for not choosing Peter were a bunch of little immature girls who have no clue what it's like looking for love in their 30s. Rachael's a grown ass woman who needs a grown ass man.
@@mrnoobie2541 divorce is one thing but if someone is hesitant this early in the relationship esp when there group of other men competing for her then it is a Major red flag. I’m glad she didn’t compromise and chose the man who was ready 🤷🏽♀️
That was hands down the worst line of the season. I saw her in such a different light after she said that. And I LOVED her and supported her up until then. I still think she's badass, but she really didn't even acknowledge her fiancé, just the ring. Yep, sounds like love to me. *Eye roll*. Won't last. Brian will wise up and see through it. He's 37 years old and no fool I'm sure. I actually feel bad for him. Even in interviews she never talks about him or how amazing he is...she just shows off her ring and says "call me your fiancé". Brutal. This poor guy.
I'd have to disagree. I was not in support of her in the beginning of the show, because I felt as if Raven should've gotten the spot. As Rachel's season progressed I began to lighten up about the idea of her being the Bachelorette. I could see how the line "Gimme that ring." would be a turn off for most. Yet, the way that I see it is more as a witty statement. She clearly acknowledged her fiance. I don't know if she is in love with Bryan, but I could definitely say that in that particular incident that she was just extremely excited to become his fiance. A ring is just a symbol of that love, and she was excited to wear it! Also, I don't know what interview you are talking about, but when I've watched the interviews with her talking about Bryan she does nothing but gushes over him... Please, send me the link or name of video so I can check out what you're talking about. I don't like that she chose Bryan, but since she did I know that it's because she already has very strong feelings for him!
And this is why I stopped watching bachelorette. Not because her season was bad but because after this breakup I was over it lmao this was so real, so raw, and so heartbreaking.
As painful as this was, Rachel made the decision she thought was right for her. Edit: No one can predict the future. We all do the best we can in the present and hope for the best.
Bethsaida Romelus, Kristen was a former contestant on the bachelor who was having an affair with one of the people that worked on the show, she was sent home and he was fired. Rachel was allowed to contact Bryan and they had secret visits every two weeks. This happens with all the winners. Do your research before you post.
I was team Peter the whole season. This scene always made me emotional. I always thought she made the wrong decision. Now that I am older and looking back at this, she made the right decision with Bryan. No doubt her and Peter loved each other. You can't tell me they didn't love each other. But Peter wasn't ready. They were on different pages. I think Peter is still single, living the bachelor life. Atleast he was the last time I was on his page. If she had chose him, I doubt they would be together. This reminds me of that young love. That first love that you never forget but you know it wasn't right for you. Its not that forever. I thought she gave up on him, but he let her go. He didn't love her enough to commit. 😢
T LG What is she forcing she talked to him about marriage and he didn’t wanna go through and he knew what that meant she had to let him go to me if they would have stayed together it would’ve been toxic and like the person said on his terms he knows that there a proposal at the end of the show if you weren’t ready why come to the show what was the point she choose someone who wanted to be serious and settle down just like she wanted
T LG When she talked to him and she told him about want a future and getting married why stay on the show honestly I see no point of him coming to the show she didn’t force him to stay he made that choice on his own he’s a grown man she didn’t have a gun point at his head and say take the rose and you better marry me no she told him about wanting a life of marriage she even mentioned the subject of wanting to be serious with someone on group dates and we’re not taking about Raven season she’s someone entirely different we’re talking about Rachel season cause I guarantee if he would have told her in the beginning of the season that he didn’t want marriage he would have mostly like been sent home
Right? If she picked Peter they would not have lasted. They would have broken up within a year or within a month or within a day. She was so smart to pick Bryan. The smartest thing she could have ever done was pick Bryan.
I see that now. Bryan was the right choice for her BUT her still denying she had strong feelings for Peter is insane. Who cries this much over a man they didn't want to marry.
@@beyourself2444 lawyer Rachel? She said she 'didnt want to leave'...like i said she picked the right one for her, BUT saying that Peter didn't mean anything or that emotional wasnt for him is a lie...esp since we ALSO saw the stank energy at the ATFR but cie la vie, she picked right.
Peter did not want Rachel. That is the bottom line. No man ever has a problem committing to a woman he wants. If a man wants you, he will commit. No woman should have to beg a man to commit to her. If he is not ready and he does not want to do it, stop wasting your time ladies and don't let him waste yours. LET HIM GO. Because if a man wants you, he WILL ask you for commitment. You don't have to ask him. He wants to snag you before anyone else does!
No I feels he’s avoidant and needs therapy. He sabotaged this cause marriage isn’t a forever guarantee he wasn’t stuck if he later didn’t want it anymore lol
I always knew she settled for Bryan. If Peter wanted marriage he would’ve been her choice, hands down. They had so much more chemistry, and her family preferred him over Bryan. I remember him getting up in the middle of a converstion as Rachel’s sister was grilling him, and he couldn’t handle it. And if you watch the first episode, Bryan seemed so inauthentic; making out every second rather than having a real conversation with her, and using his sex appeal as leverage. He was an opportunist and him asking for spousal support confirms that; a trophy husband. Maybe they grew to have real love for each other when they got married, but that relationship was doomed from the start. I was never a fan of his. I really like Rachel though, I wish her the best moving forward.
That one sane dude on a crazy show.. to me this is real love. Not even a bachelorette fan, but am hoping she changes her mind.. she knows where to find him.
Ladies the point at where she was fidgeting and couldn't leave. We have all been there. She loved that man. It took a lot for her to walk away from him in that moment. And who knows this was over two months ago so now she has probably developed strong feelings for Bryan because he was her only focus now. But Rachel if you are a God fearing person please do not go on national tv and say you never loved Peter. We have the proof right here. Own your truth woman. ....that way you could be free to live as you so joyfully put it the "best life ever"
This is honestly one of the saddest break ups ever. Really felt it. This is raw and real. Its soo sad when two ppl that you feel belong together can't make it work. 😢
I was so sad about this and was upset at Rachel when I saw this but as I get older I finally understand where she’s coming from. She made her intentions clear from the start and didn’t want to settle for any less. As much as I loved Peter what he could give was not enough. She definitely made the right decision and I’m so glad that she and Bryan are still married, happy, and together to this day.
So....here I am, a month later, here to say that Rachel made the right choice. She is enjoying "her best life" with a man who came on the show fighting hard for her heart, BRYAN. Good job Rachel, you used your brains!
Rachel’s ego/pride was bruised when Peter wouldn’t propose on the show . Peter just wanted for them to take time to get to know each other more before proposing . The irony is that she waited for 2 years before marrying Bryan. If she had chosen Peter they likely would have been engaged within 6 months and married within a year . She was mean to him during the reunion show because of her hurt pride. That just shows how deep her feelings were for Peter. If she loved Bryan, she would t have cared so much !
There's no way you can date 20+ men in a few months and not come out with feelings for more than one person. I think she loved them both but Peter was easier on the eye and had her tooth gap... But in the end, there's nothing more scary than being with a man who doesn't know what he wants. You have to be on your toes the whole time... Its not a good feeling. She picked the right person for her in the end.
christie bowman Now that I'm older and more mature, I realize that Peter was her first choice, and Bryan was her second choice. If Peter wanted her, she would have picked him. It still worked out for all of them though
@@lilygrace6689 It doesnt matter because Bryan was the right partner. And the better partner. If you have to choose a few years of love or a lifetime...choose a lifetime.
This is like the Desiree season, both Rachel and Desiree ended up picking their second choice.... They're both clearly in love with men that weren't ready to commit... So they took the next best thing nothing wrong with it but it is what it is...
I remember watching this and truly wanting her to pick Peter. They had such great chemistry and clearly cared for each other. I don’t think there is right or wrong here. Just two people with incompatible views on how to approach love. I’m happy that Rachel found what she was looking for, and I hope Peter finds the same.
This break up was definitely longer than what we are seeing. After they kiss the first time and before he says I love you Rachel there is editing there. Yup was probably a lot of tears that probably was too much to be shown.
Also we didnt see the part where she says what am i supposed to do... Apparently they were there for almost 4hrs!! I think they edited it down cause they didnt want to make her engagement to look like a total sham... but who knows... WHAT I DO KNOW is i would pay a shit ton of money for all the Pachel footage...
I see Peter's point. It's only been 2 months and that too in a fantasy type of setting. If it were only 2 months in a normal life setting, then maybe he could be ready to propose, but he's not sure what life would look like with her in the real world and he needed time to explore that. It doesn't mean his feelings for her are less. I feel like she chose Bryan just to get a proposal.
Bryan was into Rachel more than she was into him. Rachel was into Peter more than he was into her. The man should love the woman more (especially at the beginning).. Peter would not have committed in the long run.. She made the right choice.
After watching this again I am certain Rachel is not keeping it 💯 In all of these interviews. No one cries like that over someone they did not love. It's actually heartbreaking 😩 I know she wanted to be engaged and it's possible things may not have worked out with Peter, but I wish she just would've gave herself more time.
I agree with you 100% She definitely wanted Peter. If she was sure she wanted to be she with B she would've let Peter go before this date. She keeps saying she wanted "seeing it through". If she knew it was gonna be Bryan why did she want Peter to commit to proposing the next day? I love Rachel but she is not being truthful about this.
They both backed each other in a corner. They were too stuck in their heads about past experiences and one not having enough time and the other expecting so much in so little time. It's sad because I truly believe they would have made a great couple. Even though Rachel claims now she would have picked Bryan anyways, I believe there's still a part of her that wanted Peter to be more than willing to propose. I am still shocked it's not Peter, but at the end of the day this is about what Rachel wants and she wanted someone who was sure and ready for marriage. Peter seems like a lot of women's ideal man which is why he is so favored and why so many women are upset that Rachel didn't choose him over a proposal. I think Peter needs to figure things out for himself and not jump in to possibly being the next bachelor.
We always want, fight for, and act emotional over men we can't have. That's what happened here. Rachel knew she had Bryan's commitment so her focus was redirected to Peter, who she should have sent home.
Halima Omar love this... i don't blame her. I see perfectly compatible people with an awesome life changing connection that stay in limbo for years. His mother said it. Your mama knows you best. She knows what her son is capable of. And Rachel grew up in a family where marriage or engagememt was featured in the earlier stages of relationships..... this is not her first rodeo. She put herself out there for a reason. And he couldn't deliver. I could see Peter with tremendous stiff-neckedness forcing her to change little bits of herself, her dreams, settling for the mediocre life.... because yes, what he offered was mediocre in her book. Their expectations were different. Hers was appropriate for the show and his was way off base.
I agree with you .she was hoping and falling in love with peter for so long and in the end when it did not work out she did not want to loose her pride .Either ways wish her all the best.
Halima Omar What do you think Rachel is doing now? She said she is not planning a wedding now. they are trying to get to know each other which was what Peter wanted minus the proposal. Peter would of bought her a ring that would have sentimental value but she settle for a Neil lane. and I heard she picked out the pear shape ring
At a certain point in life the best thing you can have is certainty. Brian was certain n unwaiveringly sure. Who knows how long peter is going to need. She loved him but had to say goodbye to him..he didn't want the same things..simple. Bryan is my pick all day everyday and thrice on Sunday. How sexy for a man to tell you he wants you,and then mean it, fight for it,n get it. Now that's a man that will stay...Rachel you my dear are the star for fighting for that..
Funny never watched this show before but i am currently checking this season. Haven't finished yet but I think the problem with Peter is that Rachel fell head over heels for him and didnt hide it from the very beginning. Whatever the reason he came to this show for, we could see he was shocked to be chosen and spend 1 to 1 moments with her. She said she liked guys who were straightforward, took the lead and knew what they wanted. Funnily she didnt give Peter a chance to do that, she straight up confessed to him how attracted and smitten she was with him. He knew too much about HER feelings from the get go. It's both an ego boost but also scary and makes a guy overthink rather than going with the flow.
see i remember watching this wanting her to pick peter and this scene was hella hard for me to watch lol. however.... he knew that at the end of the show is an engagement. the bachelor/bachelorette is looking for a husband/wife. and all he could settle for was a girlfriend?? that is very shady to me. if he wasn’t sure about marrying rachel he should’ve left
You know what the irony( if I can call it that)in all of this is. That we saw a journey to love between Rachel and Peter from the beginning to the very end which includes the breakup. The final rose ceremony in my opinion is to solidify the love story between two people. But I felt like the break up did that instead. It showed us even when they were on the verge of a spilt the love was so intense. To me that break up was the final rose ceremony. It just ended in heart break (I hope it makes sense to whoever reads this). Because we felt all the emotions that is suppose to be felt at the final rose ceremony in this scene even though it was sad. So it gives me some joy to know that what we witnessed throughout this season between rachel and peter was real feelings up until the very end. And pls don't say it was editing because cameras can't fake emotions (unless producers was telling rachel to ball her eyes out😅😅😅) which i doubt they did. what the camera did was capture real moments. Ok I'm done😊
I always come back to this breakup to feel something
I really felt like this was true love. I could feel his love and I found out after that he started to run after her,and the producers stopped him! I really think he was trying to say just trust me Rachel, let me propose to you in my way ,he wanted it to be special and done his way. I know he hasn't had a serious relationship since then.I think he was beyond devastated, and I think she would have chosen him but wanted the proposal. I didn't like Brian at all.
I was literally telling something this today… this breakup makes me really FEEL

Allison 9579 then he obviously picked the wrong place to do it. Obviously he's never watched the previous seasons. And I don't think it's the length of time. Their stars are just not aligned right now. But it could've been something awesome. Brachel will have a good life.
Let's be real probably half the guys in real life propose and don't really want to. They love their girlfriends and want to be happy and don't want to lose them, Peter should have proposed. Makes me wonder if he is already in a relationship.
I agree but that is not the nature of the show. Rachel said a lot happened off camera.
Allison 9579 that's exactly I said ...
Allison 9579 his fears were founded. Bryan is a much bettee fit. ABC didn't show us enough. I see them both on IG and Peter's life seems fun but not in a Rachel kinda way. They made the right choice.
The Peter stans wasted no time running to the comment section I see lol
Lmao. If Peter W. can go back and forth to multiple women. Then be on and off with Kelley multiple times.... we can have hope for these two 😂
who else is here after the divorce news..
honestly the real hero is rachel... so strong and mature to be able to make a smart decision despite the heartbreak
Wow, looking back at this 3 years later and I'm so happy Rachael chose Bryan. She made the smart choice. Peter may have loved her but he wasn't ready for commitment. When a man really loves you he won't waste time to grab you for himself. The people that were mad at Rachael for not choosing Peter were a bunch of little immature girls who have no clue what it's like looking for love in their 30s. Rachael's a grown ass woman who needs a grown ass man.
Well.. People who had divorces would say otherwise 🤔
@@mrnoobie2541 about what?
@@mrnoobie2541 divorce is one thing but if someone is hesitant this early in the relationship esp when there group of other men competing for her then it is a Major red flag. I’m glad she didn’t compromise and chose the man who was ready 🤷🏽♀️
@Cali #FACTS
I think everyone had a right to have their favorite. I was a Peter and Rachel fan but she is happy and that's all that matters
Ok so…can we get these two back together?
Everytime I watch this I cry. Still not over it.
me tooo
U are now...unsure men are such a turnoff
😭😭😭😭
@@maureenmucureezi7099 yup, you are right, she is happy with bryan now :)
I know...it was a very sad day.
I think she showed more emotion in he breakup than the proposal.
10000000% percent
Rachel said, "Gimme that ring." She was so excited, about the ring.
That was hands down the worst line of the season. I saw her in such a different light after she said that. And I LOVED her and supported her up until then. I still think she's badass, but she really didn't even acknowledge her fiancé, just the ring. Yep, sounds like love to me. *Eye roll*. Won't last. Brian will wise up and see through it. He's 37 years old and no fool I'm sure. I actually feel bad for him. Even in interviews she never talks about him or how amazing he is...she just shows off her ring and says "call me your fiancé". Brutal. This poor guy.
I'd have to disagree. I was not in support of her in the beginning of the show, because I felt as if Raven should've gotten the spot. As Rachel's season progressed I began to lighten up about the idea of her being the Bachelorette. I could see how the line "Gimme that ring." would be a turn off for most. Yet, the way that I see it is more as a witty statement. She clearly acknowledged her fiance. I don't know if she is in love with Bryan, but I could definitely say that in that particular incident that she was just extremely excited to become his fiance. A ring is just a symbol of that love, and she was excited to wear it! Also, I don't know what interview you are talking about, but when I've watched the interviews with her talking about Bryan she does nothing but gushes over him... Please, send me the link or name of video so I can check out what you're talking about. I don't like that she chose Bryan, but since she did I know that it's because she already has very strong feelings for him!
Chima Louis Word
And this is why I stopped watching bachelorette. Not because her season was bad but because after this breakup I was over it lmao this was so real, so raw, and so heartbreaking.
The break up was better than the proposal by a mile!
As painful as this was, Rachel made the decision she thought was right for her.
Edit: No one can predict the future. We all do the best we can in the present and hope for the best.
Ame T. Yep he had a gf
@@babushka2758 who had a girlfriend ?
SuperAnnieq he’s lying Lmfaooo 😂
Nah, I still believe they end up together. Right she's doing PR is B. Lol
I agree. Peter deserved/deserves better💅🏽
This is heartwrenching in a sad way that shouldn't even be on TV except if it's a movie.
Esther beamsforaballad thought so too!
When peter wiped away her tears 😭😭
This was so raw and heartbreaking and oh the way she's speaking to him so softly I haven't heard her speak to anyone else in that voice :(
simkayy true this
The most real moment in reality TV. Let me go and grab my tissues.
Just saw this after the divorce announcement. She should have followed her heart
Exactly. But I feel sorry for Bryan who was played by being the second choice
Peter tried to contact her after filming this by asking the producers but Rachel will not allow it. He really loved her.
allmamalove No don't come play with my mind after everything is said and done.
Bethsaida Romelus, Kristen was a former contestant on the bachelor who was having an affair with one of the people that worked on the show, she was sent home and he was fired. Rachel was allowed to contact Bryan and they had secret visits every two weeks. This happens with all the winners. Do your research before you post.
Bethsaida Romelus kaitlyn
Amanda Zinnerman Dean and Rachel were texting after the show, he said it during an interview.
Bethsaida Romelus That's a lie, Rachel and Bryan were spending weekends together before finale even on July 4th weekend.
I was team Peter the whole season. This scene always made me emotional. I always thought she made the wrong decision. Now that I am older and looking back at this, she made the right decision with Bryan. No doubt her and Peter loved each other. You can't tell me they didn't love each other. But Peter wasn't ready. They were on different pages. I think Peter is still single, living the bachelor life. Atleast he was the last time I was on his page. If she had chose him, I doubt they would be together.
This reminds me of that young love. That first love that you never forget but you know it wasn't right for you. Its not that forever. I thought she gave up on him, but he let her go. He didn't love her enough to commit. 😢
I legit just updated my comment apologizing for being upset with Rachel.
I guess she might be single soon
N now he’s trying to take her to the bank. 😂😂
You were right
… after seeing Bryan’s post yesterday … I half wish she had waited for Peter…
That was not love. So happy she chose Bryan. Her life would be so different if she settled for Peter. Everything would have been on his terms.
So true and they will probably not be together few weeks after the finale. What I saw was an ending of an infatuation.
How was that settling, Peter is the one she wants, Bryan was the one she was left with.
Kamille King Bryan was the right choice everyone knows that at the end of the show there’s a proposal if he wasn’t ready for that why come to the show
T LG What is she forcing she talked to him about marriage and he didn’t wanna go through and he knew what that meant she had to let him go to me if they would have stayed together it would’ve been toxic and like the person said on his terms he knows that there a proposal at the end of the show if you weren’t ready why come to the show what was the point she choose someone who wanted to be serious and settle down just like she wanted
T LG When she talked to him and she told him about want a future and getting married why stay on the show honestly I see no point of him coming to the show she didn’t force him to stay he made that choice on his own he’s a grown man she didn’t have a gun point at his head and say take the rose and you better marry me no she told him about wanting a life of marriage she even mentioned the subject of wanting to be serious with someone on group dates and we’re not taking about Raven season she’s someone entirely different we’re talking about Rachel season cause I guarantee if he would have told her in the beginning of the season that he didn’t want marriage he would have mostly like been sent home
Looking back at this I realize how SMART Rachel is for choosing Bryan.
Right? If she picked Peter they would not have lasted. They would have broken up within a year or within a month or within a day. She was so smart to pick Bryan. The smartest thing she could have ever done was pick Bryan.
I agree.
I see that now. Bryan was the right choice for her BUT her still denying she had strong feelings for Peter is insane. Who cries this much over a man they didn't want to marry.
@@theworldsonheroin An emotional person
@@beyourself2444 lawyer Rachel? She said she 'didnt want to leave'...like i said she picked the right one for her, BUT saying that Peter didn't mean anything or that emotional wasnt for him is a lie...esp since we ALSO saw the stank energy at the ATFR but cie la vie, she picked right.
who else is here 3 yrs after ;(
This is the realiest break up The Bachelor has EVER had..
Peter did not want Rachel. That is the bottom line. No man ever has a problem committing to a woman he wants. If a man wants you, he will commit. No woman should have to beg a man to commit to her. If he is not ready and he does not want to do it, stop wasting your time ladies and don't let him waste yours. LET HIM GO. Because if a man wants you, he WILL ask you for commitment. You don't have to ask him. He wants to snag you before anyone else does!
Jenn JointNot in 3 dates he won't! At least mature men won't.
I totally agree with you Jenn
I don’t think this situation applies.
@@laurenality exactlyyyy
FACTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believed every word he said . He was sure about his feelings for her but just didn’t want to rush things.
No I feels he’s avoidant and needs therapy. He sabotaged this cause marriage isn’t a forever guarantee he wasn’t stuck if he later didn’t want it anymore lol
I must admit this was a Notebook moment.
THIS STILL HITS
Lmfao
I always knew she settled for Bryan. If Peter wanted marriage he would’ve been her choice, hands down. They had so much more chemistry, and her family preferred him over Bryan. I remember him getting up in the middle of a converstion as Rachel’s sister was grilling him, and he couldn’t handle it. And if you watch the first episode, Bryan seemed so inauthentic; making out every second rather than having a real conversation with her, and using his sex appeal as leverage. He was an opportunist and him asking for spousal support confirms that; a trophy husband. Maybe they grew to have real love for each other when they got married, but that relationship was doomed from the start. I was never a fan of his. I really like Rachel though, I wish her the best moving forward.
All of this!
Girl you better preach!!! Amen to all of this!!!
Yeah I can’t believe he asked for spousal support
That one sane dude on a crazy show.. to me this is real love. Not even a bachelorette fan, but am hoping she changes her mind.. she knows where to find him.
Her first choice was Peter but Peter wasn’t ready and she was smart enough to choose a man who was. I can only imagine how Brian felt watching this...
Her first choice was always Brian. They have been together 2 years before they just got married.
@@bbwalk100 Well said!! I cannot believed how people were so blind!!

it's cute how he tried to hide their hug from the cameras at 2:46
If the camera's were not there, they would still be stuck together
@@nianiah2212😂😂 yip
Ladies the point at where she was fidgeting and couldn't leave. We have all been there. She loved that man. It took a lot for her to walk away from him in that moment. And who knows this was over two months ago so now she has probably developed strong feelings for Bryan because he was her only focus now. But Rachel if you are a God fearing person please do not go on national tv and say you never loved Peter. We have the proof right here. Own your truth woman. ....that way you could be free to live as you so joyfully put it the "best life ever"
Rachel go find him now!
You can't watch this and tell me they're not in love
THIS WAS the saddest and the most beautiful thing on the bachelor
This is honestly one of the saddest break ups ever. Really felt it. This is raw and real. Its soo sad when two ppl that you feel belong together can't make it work. 😢
When she said I know you're gonna feel pressured to do it that shows that she was gonna pick him not Bryan
Agree . I feel sorry for Bryan
3 years later and I STILL have my jaw on the floor over this. This was sooo real but everything worked out for the best.
Why am I still watching this in 2020😭
Mel Brome man facts🥺😭😭
Same.
Gotdamn same!! 😂😂 September 2020.
Im here today😫❤️
2021 for me lol
I was so sad about this and was upset at Rachel when I saw this but as I get older I finally understand where she’s coming from. She made her intentions clear from the start and didn’t want to settle for any less. As much as I loved Peter what he could give was not enough. She definitely made the right decision and I’m so glad that she and Bryan are still married, happy, and together to this day.
WHO'S HERE FINDING OUT RACHEL & BRYAN DIVORCING. I always thought he was better for her
He was. You just feel it. They were so real. It's sad. I pray they can find eachother again
Me too
Why did this make me cry?
I pray these souls get together now that she's getting divorced! I got tears watching this again today
Jan 2,2024.
So....here I am, a month later, here to say that Rachel made the right choice. She is enjoying "her best life" with a man who came on the show fighting hard for her heart, BRYAN. Good job Rachel, you used your brains!
Well said!
I mean, Peter did say "We are both going to regret this!" So....um............. we know at least one person does as of 12/31/2023. IJS!
This is the saddest, most heartbreaking thing to ever watch from the Bachelorette
Rachel’s ego/pride was bruised when Peter wouldn’t propose on the show . Peter just wanted for them to take time to get to know each other more before proposing . The irony is that she waited for 2 years before marrying Bryan. If she had chosen Peter they likely would have been engaged within 6 months and married within a year . She was mean to him during the reunion show because of her hurt pride. That just shows how deep her feelings were for Peter. If she loved Bryan, she would t have cared so much !
This!
There is just no explaining this away. Brian cannot possibly watch this and continue to believe Rachel was not in love with Peter..probably still is.
There's no way you can date 20+ men in a few months and not come out with feelings for more than one person. I think she loved them both but Peter was easier on the eye and had her tooth gap... But in the end, there's nothing more scary than being with a man who doesn't know what he wants. You have to be on your toes the whole time... Its not a good feeling. She picked the right person for her in the end.
christie bowman Now that I'm older and more mature, I realize that Peter was her first choice, and Bryan was her second choice. If Peter wanted her, she would have picked him. It still worked out for all of them though
@@lilygrace6689 It doesnt matter because Bryan was the right partner. And the better partner. If you have to choose a few years of love or a lifetime...choose a lifetime.
@@lilygrace6689 older and more senile is what you sound like.
This is like the Desiree season, both Rachel and Desiree ended up picking their second choice.... They're both clearly in love with men that weren't ready to commit... So they took the next best thing nothing wrong with it but it is what it is...
I remember watching this and truly wanting her to pick Peter. They had such great chemistry and clearly cared for each other. I don’t think there is right or wrong here. Just two people with incompatible views on how to approach love. I’m happy that Rachel found what she was looking for, and I hope Peter finds the same.
This break up was definitely longer than what we are seeing. After they kiss the first time and before he says I love you Rachel there is editing there. Yup was probably a lot of tears that probably was too much to be shown.
True coz they didnt show the part where he was crying on the floor. They left a lot out. Must have been more intense
Also we didnt see the part where she says what am i supposed to do... Apparently they were there for almost 4hrs!! I think they edited it down cause they didnt want to make her engagement to look like a total sham... but who knows... WHAT I DO KNOW is i would pay a shit ton of money for all the Pachel footage...
@Jozigal M omg I would kill to watch that footage !!!!
Did we even get the "I don't wanna give up on you and I'm not gonna give up up you" line from Peter ugh
i was so excited for that part damn it
Years later and this is still sad. This was real, true love.
My heart is hurting.
R Q rachel,get,piter,back,you,dont,know,what,you,missing
Hehe
I see Peter's point. It's only been 2 months and that too in a fantasy type of setting. If it were only 2 months in a normal life setting, then maybe he could be ready to propose, but he's not sure what life would look like with her in the real world and he needed time to explore that. It doesn't mean his feelings for her are less. I feel like she chose Bryan just to get a proposal.
Bryan was into Rachel more than she was into him. Rachel was into Peter more than he was into her. The man should love the woman more (especially at the beginning).. Peter would not have committed in the long run.. She made the right choice.
Exactly. Never fall in love with someone who don't love you. Rachel did right
Who is still watching this at the end of 2020? So raw and real...
After watching this again I am certain Rachel is not keeping it 💯 In all of these interviews. No one cries like that over someone they did not love. It's actually heartbreaking 😩 I know she wanted to be engaged and it's possible things may not have worked out with Peter, but I wish she just would've gave herself more time.
itsgloriapowell she found out he had someone on the side
I agree with you 100% She definitely wanted Peter. If she was sure she wanted to be she with B she would've let Peter go before this date. She keeps saying she wanted "seeing it through". If she knew it was gonna be Bryan why did she want Peter to commit to proposing the next day? I love Rachel but she is not being truthful about this.
@@retharamodibedi2788 I agree with you a 💯
All laaate lol but what is she supposed to say? It’d affect her real life relationship at that point lol
They both backed each other in a corner. They were too stuck in their heads about past experiences and one not having enough time and the other expecting so much in so little time. It's sad because I truly believe they would have made a great couple. Even though Rachel claims now she would have picked Bryan anyways, I believe there's still a part of her that wanted Peter to be more than willing to propose. I am still shocked it's not Peter, but at the end of the day this is about what Rachel wants and she wanted someone who was sure and ready for marriage. Peter seems like a lot of women's ideal man which is why he is so favored and why so many women are upset that Rachel didn't choose him over a proposal. I think Peter needs to figure things out for himself and not jump in to possibly being the next bachelor.
We always want, fight for, and act emotional over men we can't have. That's what happened here. Rachel knew she had Bryan's commitment so her focus was redirected to Peter, who she should have sent home.
melissa johnson 👏👏👏👏
he loves her but she made the right choice for her life . she ain't got no time to start dating process again .she want family and move along.
Halima Omar love this... i don't blame her. I see perfectly compatible people with an awesome life changing connection that stay in limbo for years. His mother said it. Your mama knows you best. She knows what her son is capable of. And Rachel grew up in a family where marriage or engagememt was featured in the earlier stages of relationships..... this is not her first rodeo. She put herself out there for a reason. And he couldn't deliver. I could see Peter with tremendous stiff-neckedness forcing her to change little bits of herself, her dreams, settling for the mediocre life.... because yes, what he offered was mediocre in her book. Their expectations were different. Hers was appropriate for the show and his was way off base.
I agree with you .she was hoping and falling in love with peter for so long and in the end when it did not work out she did not want to loose her pride .Either ways wish her all the best.
Halima Omar What do you think Rachel is doing now? She said she is not planning a wedding now. they are trying to get to know each other which was what Peter wanted minus the proposal. Peter would of bought her a ring that would have sentimental value but she settle for a Neil lane. and I heard she picked out the pear shape ring
that's why the divorce rate is high, people like to rush into things...why not take your time and make sure it's the one God has for you
+MissAki1 people do take time..get married over 20 years n still get Divorce.. ..watever was meant to be...will be.. if not.. it won't..
I always thought she should have waited for him. Sometimes marriage is not the answer to a happy ending.
This scene was beautifully tragic, but I guess everything happens for a reason. Wishing them both the best in everything.
wow, I think she loved him more than bryan. so many goodbye kisses.
Can u see how he kiss her that is love he do love her
Laura Neyxon 😂 Fantasy.
So many flashbacks.
She settled for the ring
Nah that is lust baby! lol
Laura Neyxon i hope that was sarcasm, he was not at all into Rachel.
He said it...we don't have to guess
this is the TOP moment in bachelor history!!! so sad, beautiful, and heartbreaking!
At a certain point in life the best thing you can have is certainty. Brian was certain n unwaiveringly sure. Who knows how long peter is going to need. She loved him but had to say goodbye to him..he didn't want the same things..simple. Bryan is my pick all day everyday and thrice on Sunday. How sexy for a man to tell you he wants you,and then mean it, fight for it,n get it. Now that's a man that will stay...Rachel you my dear are the star for fighting for that..
These two need to find their way back to each other. ❤😢
2023 and this is still raw
It’s 2021 and I’ve never seen a breakup like in my life!!! This shit was real! No one can tell me otherwise!!!!
When Rachel and peter's breakup has more views than Rachel and Bryan's proposal. Lol that says a lot
Maggie Kapindula I watch this SEVERAL TIMES A DAY.
same
lol was about to say that.And I'm still watching lol
2019 and still watching
Because it confirms this world is insane. People love tragedy more than happiness! and oh wait drama and not love? What has the world come to!
If she had chose Peter y’all would’ve called her dumb cause y’all would’ve been like “hes not gonna marry her..why wouldn’t she choose Brian”
Well said!! People only wanted Rachel to be unhappy!
Pilot Peter is the new Bachelor and these folks are seriously still rehashing the other Peter's intentions.(✷‿✷)
This is the saddest bachelorette break up ever
Funny never watched this show before but i am currently checking this season.
Haven't finished yet but I think the problem with Peter is that Rachel fell head over heels for him and didnt hide it from the very beginning.
Whatever the reason he came to this show for, we could see he was shocked to be chosen and spend 1 to 1 moments with her.
She said she liked guys who were straightforward, took the lead and knew what they wanted.
Funnily she didnt give Peter a chance to do that, she straight up confessed to him how attracted and smitten she was with him.
He knew too much about HER feelings from the get go. It's both an ego boost but also scary and makes a guy overthink rather than going with the flow.
see i remember watching this wanting her to pick peter and this scene was hella hard for me to watch lol. however.... he knew that at the end of the show is an engagement. the bachelor/bachelorette is looking for a husband/wife. and all he could settle for was a girlfriend?? that is very shady to me. if he wasn’t sure about marrying rachel he should’ve left
Ash B. He had a gf like Jed
Princess John i don’t doubt it
Dang he said mediocre life 😭 and now they’re getting divorced
And he is asking for Spousal support
You know what the irony( if I can call it that)in all of this is. That we saw a journey to love between Rachel and Peter from the beginning to the very end which includes the breakup. The final rose ceremony in my opinion is to solidify the love story between two people. But I felt like the break up did that instead. It showed us even when they were on the verge of a spilt the love was so intense. To me that break up was the final rose ceremony. It just ended in heart break (I hope it makes sense to whoever reads this). Because we felt all the emotions that is suppose to be felt at the final rose ceremony in this scene even though it was sad. So it gives me some joy to know that what we witnessed throughout this season between rachel and peter was real feelings up until the very end. And pls don't say it was editing because cameras can't fake emotions (unless producers was telling rachel to ball her eyes out😅😅😅) which i doubt they did. what the camera did was capture real moments. Ok I'm done😊
