"THE BACHELOR," season 9 (2006): After episodes filmed in Rome, Prince Lorenzo Borghese -- an Italian royal who grew up in Connecticut and became an entrepreneur (of pet products and cosmetics) -- made his ultimate choice just two hours before his final rose ceremony. He sent home publicist Sadie Murray and gave the rose (but not a ring) to schoolteacher Jennifer Wilson. Lorenzo and Jennifer broke up in January 2007, after which Lorenzo rekindled a romance with Sadie, who reportedly relocated to be near him in New York City, according to some gossip columns. But the two also split within a few months.
”THE BACHELORETTE,” season 8 (2012): Emily Maynard may have been the chosen one during ”The Bachelor's” season 15 when Brad Womack selected her as his honey, but it turns out he was no prize. By the time the ”After the Final Rose” special aired, it was clear there was already trouble in paradise. The two ended up splitting last summer and in January, the blonde bombshell signed up to be the next ”Bachelorette!” Last night, the single mom (to 6-year-old Ricki) met her 25 suitors and will pick up her quest to find true love once again. And, for fans of hot-tub drama and boozy brawls that have been pretty prevalent in past seasons of “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette,” this season might prove to be a bit more tame. "I don't want to be kissing every guy," Emily -- a self-proclaimed "hopeless romantic" -- told People. "I want to still be a lady. I'm a mom first." Will Emily manage to keep the drama factor low? We'll have to see it to believe that it's possible.
"THE BACHELOR," season 16 (2012): Ben Flajnik may have had his heart broken when Ashley Hebert dumped him during season 7 of "The Bachelorette" moments after he proposed, but he seems to have recovered nicely. Hebert went on to live blissfully ever after with J.P. Rosenbaum and Ben went on to date 25 women on "The Bachelor." During his season's final rose ceremony in Zermatt, Switzerland, the California winemaker sent sweetheart Lindzi Cox packing and took a stance he's familiar with -- he got down on one knee and asked mean girl, and skinny-dipping partner extraordinaire, Courtney Robertson to marry him. During "After the Final Rose," there were tears and tension between the two as Flajnik admitted that he and Courtney had split around Valentine's Day after he saw her bad-girl ways play out on TV, but they are back together and Robertson is finally rocking her engagement ring in public. Will they make it to the altar? They both seem to think so -- "we're in a good place," says Ben.
"THE BACHELORETTE," season 7 (2011): It was her reluctance to open up that kept dental student Ashley Hebert from winning Brad Womack's heart. But when it was her turn to do the choosing on her season of "The Bachelorette," Hebert received two proposals -- one from season 16's "Bachelor," Ben Flajnik, and one from her true love, J.P. Rosenbaum. Ashley and J.P. are getting ready to celebrate the one-year anniversary of their engagement and are currently planning a move from New York City to suburban New Jersey. During "After the Final Rose" on March 12, they revealed to Chris Harrison that they are hoping to get married within the year.
"THE BACHELOR," season 15 (2011): The notorious bachelor from season 11 returned four years later to redeem himself! Brad Womack ended his first season by rejecting both of his final two girls -- DeAnna Pappas and Jenni Croft. But with his second chance at love, the slow-talking Texan was determined to find a wife. He ended up proposing to Emily Maynard. The two were on-and-off before the constant paparazzi attention and tabloid rumors finally got the best of them and they broke up last June. According to Us Weekly, Brad didn't handle the split well and didn't stop calling Emily in hopes that she would go back to him. Based on the casting of this season's "Bachelorette," we know how that turned out!
"THE BACHELORETTE," season 6 (2010): Fan favorite Ali Fedotowsky famously chose her career at Facebook over Jake Pavelka during her stint on "The Bachelor." But when it was her turn to run the show, Ali was ready to focus fully on love. Her open heart led her to sweet and sultry baseball player/insurance agent Roberto Martinez, and the they got engaged on the show's finale. The two seemed crazy about each other as they moved in together in San Diego, but after pushing back their wedding date a handful of times, their 18-month engagement ended in November. Shortly after the split, Fedotowsky told People, "We definitely had been having problems. But I had always believed that we could work it out."
"THE BACHELOR" ("On the Wings of Love"), season 14, (2010): Strong, sensitive pilot -- and "Bachelorette" season 5 reject -- Jake Pavelka stunned fans when he became more and more attracted to brash, curvy Vienna Girardi, a lightning rod for conflict among the other women vying for Jake's heart. In the weeks leading up to the finale, tabloids ran reports defaming Vienna and rehashing scandals in her past. But Pavelka proposed anyway. Their roller-coaster romance didn't last long, and the two were soon back on ABC for "The Bachelor Breakup" special, which aired July 5. Jake screamed, Vienna cried (and infamously called Jake a "fame whore") and ratings soared. The two faced off once again during season 2 of "Bachelor Pad," where Vienna and her then-boyfriend Kasey Kahl (from Ali Fedowtosky's season) made a whole new set of enemies as they schemed their way to the no. 2 spot in the competition.
"THE BACHELORETTE," season 5 (2009): Interior designer Jillian Harris was sent home by Jason Mesnick during "The Bachelor," season 13. But the bubbly Canadian had better luck as star of her own "Bachelorette" season. She ultimately fielded three marriage proposals -- from Ed Swiderski, Kiptyn Locke and Reid Rosenthal (who made a surprise reappearance in the finale, despite being rejected after the hometown dates). Jillian chose Ed, and they moved to Chicago to start planning a wedding. But, like many before them, their romance headed south, and they called it quits July 2010.
"THE BACHELOR," season 13 (2009): Account executive and single dad Jason Mesnick first appeared on "The Bachelorette" in pursuit of DeAnna Pappas, who spurned his marriage proposal. Scooped up to star in a new season of "The Bachelor," Jason then shocked fans when he committed the biggest flip-flop in the show's history. After proposing to former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Melissa Rycroft, he dumped her (while cameras rolled) during the "After the Final Rose" episode hosted by Chris Harrison. Jaws were still on the floor when, moments later, Jason asked runner-up Molly Malaney for a second chance. Jason and Molly wed during a happy (rain-soaked) ceremony that aired on ABC in 2010. Rycroft ended up having the fairy-tale ending she deserved when she married Tye Strickland in 2009, and the two welcomed baby girl Ava Grace last February.
"THE BACHELORETTE," season 4 (2008): Real estate broker DeAnna Pappas was one of the two beauties rejected by Brad Womack on "The Bachelor" (season 11) finale. As star of her own "Bachelorette" season, she fell for pro snowboarder Jesse Csincsak, who proposed in the finale. The couple called off their engagement within months, but this didn't stop DeAnna from finding love within "The Bachelor" family. In October, the southern belle married Stephen Stagliano, twin brother of "Bachelor Pad" and "Bachelorette" contestant (from Jillian Harris' season), Michael.
"THE BACHELOR" ("London Calling"), season 12 (2008): The ultimate swinging singles' series signed up charming British financier Matt Grant for a season capped by his proposal to over-the-moon Shayne Lamas (an L.A. actress and daughter of Lorenzo Lamas). Within weeks, Shayne caused a media stir when she appeared in a racy, nearly nude photo spread in Girls Gone Wild magazine. Though the photos surprised Matt, he told People magazine, "I stand by Shayne 110 percent." But less than three months after his proposal, the duo broke up. In April 2010, Shayne made headlines again by eloping in Vegas with someone she'd just met, blogger Nik Richie. The two -- who have lasted longer than many "Bachelor" couples -- welcomed a baby girl in November.
"THE BACHELOR," season 11 (2007): Handsome bar proprietor Brad Womack arguably became the most hated "Bachelor" in the love-themed franchise's history after he narrowed his choices to real-estate agent DeAnna Pappas and cheerleader Jenni Croft -- and then rejected them both in the finale! On 20/20's 2010 special "Inside the Bachelor: Stories Behind the Rose," Brad revealed that after his season finale aired, he all but hid from the public due to the strong backlash against him, and said he was guilty of misleading the final two women about his feelings. Meanwhile, DeAnna went on to "Bachelorette" stardom, but after ending her season with a declaration of love (followed by the relationship fizzling out fast), she ultimately said she understood Brad's controversial decision.
"THE BACHELOR" ("Officer and a Gentleman"), season 10 (2007): In his finale episode, Andy Baldwin -- naval officer, ironman triathlete and doctor -- proposed to Tessa Horst, a San Francisco-based social worker. Andy told reporters that Tessa would soon join him at his naval post in Hawaii, but by July, they'd called off the engagement. "With the possibility of reassignment to a new location, we decided it was not the ideal time for Tessa to uproot herself and move out [to Hawaii] right now," Andy told People. He briefly dated Donald Trump's ex Marla Maples the following year.
"THE BACHELOR," season 9 (2006): After episodes filmed in Rome, Prince Lorenzo Borghese -- an Italian royal who grew up in Connecticut and became an entrepreneur (of pet products and cosmetics) -- made his ultimate choice just two hours before his final rose ceremony. He sent home publicist Sadie Murray and gave the rose (but not a ring) to schoolteacher Jennifer Wilson. Lorenzo and Jennifer broke up in January 2007, after which Lorenzo rekindled a romance with Sadie, who reportedly relocated to be near him in New York City, according to some gossip columns. But the two also split within a few months.
