NEW YORK -- Chris Harrison called "The Bachelorette" finale an "absolute tearjerker" and boy was he right! We began in the Maldives with two men and one rose. Becca feels like she's in love with both Blake and Garrett. She's hoping her final dates and her family's opinions will help her decide. Becca's family is at a beautiful villa waiting to meet her final two bachelors. Garrett was up first, and he was shaking as he walked in. Garrett told them how he got the first impression rose and about how happy he was to introduce Becca to his family. He didn't waste any time in telling them that he absolutely loves her.


Becca's mother told Blake that he will be fine either way and that she finds him to be special. He found it really weird that she said that to him. He thinks that Becca's mother knows that she's not going to pick him. Her uncles both told him he should be prepared to go home and even asked him if there was anything wrong with Garrett! Wow. Blake was very upset and said in an interview that he didn't want to talk about Garrett anymore. He said, unfortunately, usually his brain is right when he suspects something. Blake called it a curse. He sensed something was off and he said in the past, that always meant a breakup. Poor Blake! He's literally being tortured by this process.


Then we joined Chris Harrison live on stage with Blake. He had tears in his eyes as he watched the breakup playout. He said it was the first time he saw it. He said that he couldn't believe that he had a ring in his hand only for the woman he loves to say no. Chris Harrison asked him why he told Becca he loved her again, and Blake said that he just wanted her to know that he truly loved her and nothing she said changed that fact.

Becca came out on the live stage with Blake, sans engagement ring, and told Blake he looked great. Blake asked her if there was a moment or something that happened when she decided that it wouldn't be him. Becca told him that she just evaluated both relationships and what would fit best with her life and she decided it was with Garrett. Blake asked her what wasn't right with their future and Becca said that it came down to how they would handle situations and that he got in his head more at times. It came down to confidence! She said what if something happened to a potential child or something, she could see him being in his head. I think she sees Garrett as more of her rock.



Back at the live show, the crowd went wild with the news of the engagement. Becca and Blake then came out on stage and were beaming with happiness! Becca was wearing her huge engagement ring and the two of them were just elated! They talked about how exciting it was to watch it back and it made their love grow even stronger. Becca said that it blows her mind that they found each other this way, but she's ready to start her life with Garrett. He said he thought he was getting broken up with when she stopped him, until she said that she loved him and it was such a happy moment. She said that when his family congratulated her at the airport she cried into her quesadilla because she's just so happy. Garrett said that it was such an honor that Becca said that he reminds her of his father.

We got to see Garrett and Becca's weekend getaways and they seemed very happy! They spent a lot of time "together." Happy Couple Weekend is very happy for both, minus Garrett's snoring. To avoid the crowds, apparently Garrett has a mullet wig and Becca has a wig too! They have thriving rose bush at Garrett's family's farm, a sign of their love!

Garrett addressed his questionable Instagram activity and he said that he's sorry he liked certain posts and he stands by it and he's trying to grow as a person and be a better person on a daily basis. He said that liking those things went against what Becca stands for a person and he wants to be the kind of person she wants to be with. She says she knows who he is and she knows his heart and soul. Becca says that she knows that he stands by his apology and she just wants to move forward from it. He said that he worried he could lose Becca over the controversy, but she knows who he is and she knows he would never purposely hurt or offend anyone.

So what's next for the happy couple? They plan to visit Cosco and do normal things. They are moving in together. He is going to spend time in Minneapolis and then she'll go to Reno and then they might go to California for a few years, Becca said. They haven't planned their wedding just yet, but they are looking forward to spending more time together. Becca said she wanted four corgis, but that she'd settle for one or two and Garrett agreed. As a gift, the show is sending them back to Thailand to start their lives together. As they walked outside, the show gave them their very own woody minivan to ride off in!

Starting tomorrow night at 8/7 c, don't miss "Bachelor in Paradise!"
