All sorts of weirdness yesterday, I honestly don’t know where to begin. A lot of false information floating around out there regarding what happened based on the things that were sent to me, and I want to clear everything up. Especially after I released the name of the person who Peter was seen talking to once he was done dancing with Victoria. Might wanna listen to this whole story considering, well, she and I have been in contact during this last month. How everything came together was so bizarre because it was so back and forth and last minute. That truly was one of the weirdest days of filming I can ever remember yesterday from this franchise, and really, I still don’t know what to make of it. When you read everything I lay out for you today about the chain of events yesterday, you’re probably still gonna be slightly confused as to the show’s motivation and what it all means. Don’t worry, you won’t be the only ones. I’ll share my thoughts at the end today of what I THINK might happen now after knowing what I know about yesterday. Bear with me here, there’s a lot to go over.
First, lets just get out of the way all the pics and videos from yesterday’s date to those who didn’t see it. Keep in mind, all these pictures and video are BEFORE Peter knew anything about Victoria and what I posted yesterday. Clearly. So here it is in chronological order of what went down:

So yes, Lauren Luyendyk (Burnham) is friends with someone who is close friends with one of the women I referenced in my column today I was in touch with. Since Lauren has a baby and in AZ, looks like they sent her mom in to save the day. We’ve truly reached a meta moment today.

Can I just point out now that I’m glad Victoria dressed up for her hometown date? Did she think they were going to the beach and it was 90 degrees out? Cut off jean shorts in 60 degree weather? I’m no fashionista by any means, but that didn’t look like hometown date attire.
So you get the gist of what went down. Peter is into Victoria clearly. There’s a physical attraction there that is undeniable. And then things got weird. So you saw me mention the fact that Lauren Luyendyk (Burnham) had her mom (and dad) there, Pamela Burnham. Her mom got mic’d up by production. The other person of note who was there that was also mic’d up was Morgan Speight, this girl:
As you can see, she is friends with Lauren Luyendyk from back when she lived in Virginia Beach, as she attended her bachelorette party and wedding. But, I can tell you that Morgan is also good friends with one of the women whose now ex-husband Victoria had a relationship with. That’s why she was there and mic’d up. It certainly looks to me like Pamela and Morgan were told to be there by the show and were there to warn Peter about Victoria. I don’t see any other reason why they’d mic them up. But then Merissa happened…

I have a feeling that production will want to keep Victoria around longer so that when the show airs in the spring, everyone will know about it because it will surely make the tabloids just as Jed’s story did. This will create interest in the show…. people won’t want Peter to pick the evil girl and my guess is that she makes it to the final 2. I don’t know if they want a repeat of Hannah’s season because that’s already been done, but they still have Lauren’s mom and the other girl to come in at the last minute and save Peter from Victoria. I can already see it coming… lots of tears from Peter and drama, which is exactly what ABC wants.

Sad, but true, dogmomma. I’m sure ABC is frothing at the mouth thinking about how the drama will play out. And by spring – now that RS has gotten the word out – women will come out of the woodwork wanting to add fuel to the fire. And ABC will want Victoria to go as far as possible to milk the story. I just hope he doesn’t end up picking her…been there, done that last season! Just seeing the clips RS has posted I don’t even like her looks. I think some of the other women are much prettier. I’m rooting for Madison or Kelsey. Hannah Sluss looks like another attention getter…and we don’t need another Hannah!

It really irritates me that ABC somehow found a “never been seen before” scenario to top Jed’s slimy behavior last season. This show is doomed because they will eventually run out of new scandals after a while.

And it irritates me that they probably seek out women (and men) that are damaged rather than cast people that are genuine. I so miss the early days of watching the Bach/ette and getting caught up in the romance. It’s getting harder and harder to get invested in any of the “characters” as the odds keep getting higher and higher that the ones who make it far have skeletons in their closets and the whole thing turns out to be a huge farce. I truly hope that Peter learned something from Hannah’s experience and kicks Victoria to the curb…but I fear that producers won’t allow that to happen. Ugh.

Peter is fake and I bet all his relationships are transactional and all what-is-in-it-for-me. It doesn’t matter who he ends up with, whether it’s Victoria or not. He might just pull a Jake-Pavelka to gain as much attention as possible by picking the most controversial fiancé.

The fact that RS reported that Peter kept Victoria around even after being warned of her past with married men, leads me to believe that you may be correct “justsaying.” We all know that he ghosted a girl to go on the Bachelorette and lied about it, so that proves that he’s most likely NOT looking to meet someone to settle down with. C’mon…a 28 year-old pilot living the single life??

I agree ctrealitygirl. It never sat well with me how he broke up with his ex and he was so phony during Hannah’s season. He doesn’t love anyone nor will he ever.

I agree with dogmama. Production will keep Victoria around because she adds drama to the season. Plus everyone will be talking about Victoria meaning they are talking about the Bachelor.

Peter and his girlfriend broke up months prior to the filming and at show time she already had a boyfriend. He did not “ghost” her

So who does Peter end up with?
