Some Bachelor and Bachelorette stars had more luck in the love department outside the reality dating series, finding their forever without the prying eyes of cameras.
Ali Fedotowsky and Emily Maynard are among the former leads who broke up with their final picks, only to find The One after starring on the show.
“I went on the show for a good time. I didn’t go on for love,” Fedotowsky told Us Weekly exclusively in 2019. “Nobody goes on the show for love and then they’re just surprised when they actually do fall in love.They go on there like, ‘This could be fun.’”
While she and Roberto Martinez were briefly engaged, the pair split and Fedotowsky moved on with now-husband Kevin Manno, with whom she shares two kids.
Maynard, meanwhile, married Tyler Johnson in June 2014, and the two have gone on to welcome five children together. (Maynard shared her eldest child, daughter, Ricki, with her late fiancé Ricky Hendrick.)
