Jillian Takes the Final 3 to Maui on The Bachelorette

JILLIAN SWEEPS THE THREE FINAL MEN AWAY TO THE ROMANTIC PARADISE OF MAUI, HAWAII FOR STEAMY FANTASY OVERNIGHT DATES, ON ABC’S “THE BACHELORETTE”

Romantic adventures await Jillian and the final three bachelors Ed, Kiptyn and Reid as they travel to the tropical heaven of Maui, Hawaii for the intimate overnight dates. After finally sending Wes home despite her strong feelings for him, Jillian is confident that she has three incredible men left. The dates are not only filled with amazing sand and surf adventures, but also excitement and passion, as Jillian continues to explore what her future would be like with each of these potential mates. She is once again faced with extending an invitation to each bachelor to spend the night in a “fantasy suite.” However, there may be serious repercussions to their decisions and poignant reactions to these intensely emotional trysts, on “The Bachelorette,” MONDAY, JULY 13 (8:00-10:02 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

Jillian immediately tests Kiptyn with a daring, beachside ropes course designed to build trust and teamwork. She has strong feelings for him and their relationship has grown, but she still isn’t sure where this will end. During a romantic evening alone, Jillian confronts him: Is he ready to be the love of her life? And is she ready to take a leap of faith and trust him with her heart?

The next day, Jillian surprises Reid with a spectacular panoramic helicopter tour of Maui, landing at a secluded beach where a romantic picnic awaits them. They have an amazing time, but he confesses something that shakes Jillian. At dinner she lays her heart on the line: Is he going to be ready to propose at the end? And will his answer affect Jillian’s decision to continue the night in the “fantasy suite?”

Jillian takes Ed on a boat ride to a remote cove where the couple play in the pristine water. She has some very serious concerns about this bachelor, but out on the boat, Ed, who is head over heels in love with Jillian, presents her with a thrilling and totally unexpected surprise that shows just how serious he is about her.

The Bachelorette once again has the option to spend the night with all three men.

One of the dates does not go according to plan, leaving Jillian wondering if this relationship will ever work out or not.

Jillian is more confused than ever. She is in love with all three men and has concerns about all three. In an attempt to get more insight so she can make her crucial decision, she decides to have a private talk with one of the bachelors about their fantasy suite rendezvous. Finally, she offer her roses to the two final men, but bids a tearful goodbye to a man she truly loves. Then, realizing she is close to finding her fairytale ending, Jillian and two remaining bachelors toast their final adventure.

The woman lucky enough not be chosen or dumped by Jason will be the next Bachelorette

Jillian Harris, the intelligent, independent, passionate woman who fell just short of her goal — hoping that Jason Mesnick could be her best friend, soul mate and future husband on the just completed hit season of “The Bachelor” — will have her own opportunity to find true love, starring in the fifth edition of “The Bachelorette,” which will premiere MONDAY, MAY 18 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on  ABC .

An instant fan favorite on the last edition of “The Bachelor,” Jillian, 29, a restaurant interior designer who currently resides in Vancouver, British Columbia, came oh-so-close to being the woman Jason selected. She scored points with him the first night she met him. Finding a creative new way to “grill” a guy, Jillian disclosed her unusual theory about discovering a lot about a man from the condiments he puts on his hot dog, and she immediately put Jason to the test. Her adventurous spirit and resourceful, resilient manner of handling a stressful family situation impressed Jason, who fit in with her wonderful and warm family. He invited her to New Zealand as one of the final three women, but even after she and Jason shared one of the steamiest hot tubs in Bachelor history, he still questioned whether their chemistry would last over time and sent her home.

Enthusiastic about her work and life in general, Jillian is ready to find her best friend and settle down and is confident that she can find the love of her life on “The Bachelorette.” Jillian is an only child and is excited at the thought of starting her own family.
