While Matt’s ending was certainly one of the least satisfying of the franchise for many reasons, it’s not the only one that could be described as…chaotic. The last time a Bachelor season ended well on screen was with Nick Viall in 2017, and he and Vanessa Grimaldi split a few months later.
And sure, we’d also call Arie Luyendyk Jr. and Lauren Burnham a success story, but never forget being forced to watch him break up with his first choice, Becca Kufrin, on camera for like 40 minutes.
What we’re saying is that this show is tough, and every ending is unique. Take a little walk through Bachelor franchise history by revisiting all the finales below!
Hopefully, new Bachelorettes Katie Thurston and Michelle Young (yep, 2021 is the year of the ladies) will have some better luck.
