But the finale didn’t wrap up without a dramatic journey that included a major twist and a huge shocker with frontrunner Greg Grippo, who left the show on his own accord the week before fantasy suites, leaving Thurston and tears and viewers completely stunned at home.
On last night’s episode of “After the Final Rose,” Thurston sat down with Grippo for the first time since shooting wrapped.

“The Bachelorette” Season 17 finale dominated primetime Monday, airing on ABC against new episodes of NBC’s “American Ninja Warrior” and “The Wall” on the first night after the Closing Ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics, per initial Nielsen data. That marks the end of NBC’s winning streak, which lasted throughout the 16-day Summer Games. ABC was first in ratings with a 1.2 rating in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and in total viewers with an average of 4.4 million, according to preliminary numbers. From 8-11, Katie Thurston’s “The Bachelorette” finale and “After the Final Rose” special scored that combined rating and total viewer tally. The season closer of Thurston’s season ended with her picking Blake Moynes as her winner, following last week’s exit of frontunner Greg Grippo, and Moynes getting down on one knee to propose to her (pictured above), an offer she gladly accepted. You can watch the newly...

“Bachelorette” Katie Thurston got engaged to Blake Moynes on the Season 17 finale of the ABC dating series Monday. And following their debut on the “After the Final Rose” special, Katie and Blake won an even bigger prize than each other during “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”: a set of “Joe Dirt” bedsheets, which they got for revealing how many times they’ve “made whoopie” while playing guest host David Spade’s “Newly Engaged Game.”
Turns out the answer to that question is not one that Katie and Blake can agree on, as he revealed his guess to be “30” and she showed hers as “43.” But seeing as they were both in the same “ballpark” (according to them), Spade let them pass and go home with his swag.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched the Aug. 9 season finale of “The Bachelorette.”
Katie Thurston’s reign as “The Bachelorette” has come to an end. During Monday’s three-hour finale, Katie walked away engaged to Blake Moynes.
But the path to engagement was less than smooth. Viewers last saw the Season 17 lead locked in the bathroom on the heels of her breakup with former front-runner Greg Grippo. The two exchanged a heated (and controversial) split during the penultimate episode, which left her with two finalists: now-fiancé Blake and Justin Glaze.
The finale episode jumped back and forth between present-day reactions and the finale production events in New Mexico. After introductions and a season recap by hosts Kaitlyn Bristowe and Tayshia Adams, viewers reunited with Katie in tears in New Mexico. The playback was followed by her present-day reflection, where she reacted to her exchange with Greg.

Those roses from The Bachelorette are looking thornier by the day. Katie Thurston and Greg Grippo's explosive argument on The Bachelorette on Monday, August 2 divided Bachelor Nation in half over who was "right." But Katie isn't letting anyone tell her how she feels anymore. The 30-year-old from Seattle revealed her true thoughts on the situation months after it happened. She shared an Instagram Story featuring an explainer on gaslighting, indicating she thought Greg gaslit her. The term means, "to cause (a person) to doubt his or her sanity through the use of psychological manipulation," per Dictionary.com. Their argument (and alleged gaslighting)...

Hometown dates on “The Bachelor” franchise are historically dominated by conversations with parents and establishing familial approval. However, Bachelorette Katie Thurston’s week of hometown dates was largely monopolized by tension with her self-described frontrunner, Greg Grippo.
Greg joined two other men — Justin Glaze and Blake Moynes — to round out Katie’s final three. Each man had an opportunity to introduce Katie to their loved ones and give her a taste of home, despite being limited to the grounds of their New Mexico hotel.
Blake introduced her to his Canadian roots with maple syrup and games of darts, hockey and a mechanical moose before introducing her to his mother and siblings. Blake’s confidence in their relationship was juxtaposed with Greg’s insecurity as he spied on their date from his hotel balcony.

Warning: Major spoilers ahead for the "man tears" of "The Bachelorette" Season 17
Monday's "Bachelorette" began with a huge shocker: An emotional self-elimination that ended a relationship Katie said she could see "going to the end."
In a tender moment, Michael A. revealed he was "at war with himself" whether to continue his journey with Katie while his 4-year-old son feels neglected at home.
"I'm not leaving because of us, I'm leaving because my son needs his dad," Michael A. told Katie, "You taught me how to love again."
The self-elimination left Katie confused and heartbroken, as she admitted that she saw herself and Michael A. "going to the end." The decision pared down Katie's remaining contestants to three men: Greg Grippo, who won the legendary First Impression Rose, Blake Moynes, the wildlife-obsessed "Bachelorette" frequenter — Katie is the third Bachelorette he's dated — and Justin Glaze, the romantic painter.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched the July 26 “Men Tell All” episode of “The Bachelorette.”
On the heels of Andrew Spencer’s emotional departure, another man said goodbye to Katie Thurston during “The Bachelorette.”
Widower and single dad Michael Allio was one of Katie’s final four going into hometowns. But before the “Men Tell All” special, he abruptly left the competition in reaction to a video call with his son.
“Maybe Daddy left because he don’t want to see me,” his son James said.
The comment forced Michael to go to Katie directly and withdraw from the season. “I’m not leaving because of us. I’m leaving because my son needs his dad,” he told Katie.
The exit prompted tears from Katie, before segueing into the “Men Tell All” portion of the episode, which — of course — contained the traditional bromances and recounts of betrayal from the season.

Katie Thurston was tasked with narrowing down her “Bachelorette” suitors from seven to four in anticipation of next week’s hometown dates.
Andrew Spencer, Blake Moynes, Brendan Scanzano, Greg Grippo, Justin Glaze, Michael Allio, and Mike Planeta remained in the running.
Katie strategized on how to distribute her dates but ultimately decided to reward Greg with a second one-on-one (making him the first contestant of the season to receive multiple individual dates). Mike received his first one-on-one, and the group date was split between the others.
The men — especially Brendan, who became the only remaining contestant who hadn’t received his own date — were envious of Greg for his additional time. Despite the jealousy, Greg managed to enjoy his time with Katie, who played homage to her hometown of Seattle with setups of Pike Place Market,...

“The Bachelorette’s” Katie Thurston kicked off the week’s episode of the ABC reality dating competition with a challenge for her men: “W.O.W.O” — a week off whacking off. The challenge was born out of a conversation with hosts Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe, during which Katie came up with the idea to ban the men from masturbating. Kaitlyn delivered the news to the contestants, which kicked off a sexual-innuendo-filled episode.
After Katie’s challenge, Justin Glaze received the week’s first date. He and Katie spent the day participating in a fake wedding, where the two dressed up in formal wear and exchanged vows.

Last week’s blast from the past brought former contestant Blake Moynes into the cast for consideration of Katie Thurston’s final rose. Blake — who formerly appeared on Season 16 of “The Bachelorette” — moved into the resort and was greeted with animosity from the other men upon arrival.
The angst only grew as Blake was given the first one-on-one of the week. Katie acknowledged that Blake’s presence was “frustrating” for the other men, but confessed privately that having him on the date was strategic: if there wasn’t a spark, it would allow her to eliminate the source of tension quickly for the other men.
However, that was not the case. Blake and Katie spent the day horseback riding and having conversations not normally shown on the show, including the mundane — yet realistic — topics of work,...

‘The Bachelorette’ Recap: Accusations Fly That Katie Thurston’s Men Are ‘Here for the Wrong Reasons’
Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched the June 14 episode of “The Bachelorette.”
Katie Thurston’s reign as the sex-positive Bachelorette continued during her first group date of the new season of ABC’s dating competition. She was joined by podcast host Heather McDonald with 10 of her remaining men as they competed for the title of “The Greatest Lover of All Time.”
Each man was encouraged to interpret the prompt in their own way — from sexual to subtle. The performances ranged from Connor Brennan’s innocent song-serenade to Tre Cooper’s erotic puppet performance. Karl Smith received negative attention for his long winded-sexual monologue, but it was Mike Planeta — whose poetic confession as a virgin — was named the winner. Despite anxieties before the performance, his candor was rewarded by Katie.

It’s Katie Thurston’s chance to find love.
Despite her striking first impression with Matt James on “The Bachelor,” when she introduced herself alongside her trusty vibrator, Katie’s time on the ABC franchise was cut short. Now, the self-described “silly, sex-positive girl” from Washington is back, though, leading the 17th season of “The Bachelorette.”
Former Bachelorettes Kaitlyn Bristowe and Tayshia Adams were tasked with helping Katie on her journey. After controversy sidelined regular host Chris Harrison, the two ladies joined the cast to emcee the season from New Mexico. The three bonded over their “sisterhood” of leading the franchise, and Kaitlyn and Tayshia offered their seasoned advice before the men arrived: “Don’t rule anyone out,” they cautioned.
The 30 men that arrived in the June 7 premiere episode used gimmicks and puns to stand out.

That's the million-dollar question Bachelorette star Katie Thurston asked contestant Greg Grippo during the highly anticipated season 17 premiere of the ABC dating series on Monday, June 7. However, Katie didn't offer the 28-year-old competitor any rose. Instead, the New Jersey native earned the coveted First Impression Rose.
