'Bachelorette: After the Final Rose': Ali Fedotowsky, Roberto Martinez engaged
All I can in advance of the show is -- in the aftermath of the best "Bachelor"/"Bachelorette" finale ever, I hope Chris doesn't end up coming back all bitter, because he left Bora Bora looking pretty great.Ali's solo segment
Chris welcomes Ali to the stage. She immediately name-drops Roberto and shows off her beautiful ring. So Reality Steve got it wrong, huh? He claims Ali is single and didn't pick anyone. Hmmm.
But first, we have to deal with the Frank nonsense. Ali reiterates that he had a relationship with Nicole that wasn't over before he came on the show. Chris then has to tell Ali that Frank refused to come on the "After the Final Rose" special. Reality Steve got that one right.
Chris Time
There's a video montage -- on this show? Shocking, I know. It must be to fill the space Frank would've blathered on about loving two people. Back with Chris, he's not angry at Ali at all. He knows she couldn't control who she fell in love with and he's very classy about the whole thing.
They bring out Ali and it's definitely awkward between them, but they ask each other about being happy, which is nice. He asks what she learned from them as a couple during the show and she says he helped her learn a lot about what she's looking for in someone and she cites their friendship and stuff. It's a nice answer, but nothing earth-shattering.
We then see a video clip of Ali seeing the rainbow too in Tahiti -- did we see that in the finale? I don't think we did. That's nice she remembered. They are just so nice to each other, I'm really glad Chris didn't come back and be a jerk. Not that I thought he would because he's too awesome, but it was a slight concern.
Roberto Time
He says he realized the second or third Rose Ceremony that they would be together for ever. They seem really cute together, I hope it's for real. After reliving their engagement on video, Ali reassures Chris that they are in love. They tell Chris the way they've pseudo-dated since the finale taped, which is adorable. They also say that they have a place together in San Diego and that the wedding isn't set yet.
Then a helicopter whisks them off to Catalina Island and they presumably live happily ever after. Will I get to recap their wedding on ABC next spring? I certainly hope so.
That's it for this season, "Bachelorette" fans. See you next time, when hopefully Chris Lambton is the next Bachelor. And lest you worry about withdrawal, I'll be here starting next week for "Bachelor Pad" in all its trainwrecky glory.

so so happy for Ali and Roberto!!!
I really think these two will make it. Best Wishes!!!!
Loved her clothes through this whole series -- except for tonight. Was the design supposed to look like stitching on a baseball? (Roberto plays baseball.)
Chris for the next Bachelor!
Roberto won me over with his time with her parents. He was great!I sure hope this one lasts!
guess reality steve was wrong
its time to retire, reality-steve, you have failed at your occupation.
i could have swore i saw a preview clip where chris lays into ali about breaking up with him at a bad time.....sneaky editors!
I could have swore we were promised a frank appearance by chris harrison. Maybe they should make sure they have it on tape, or in legal writing, before they promise it. c'mon bachelor producers, surely you waved $5000 in front of his face to entice him to appear, right?...if he lives with his folks, then he probably would have taken the money.
I mean, cant you just contractually obligate guys like frank and justin to show up for a shaming-fest?
I dont feel too bad for chris. He is going to be swarmed by hot babes the next time he goes to his local bar. or any bar. or grocery store.
what if ali and roberto dont have beautiful babies? will they be totally bummed out?
im not sure i'll watch bachelor pad, its probably too much of a sleazefest. take the country-singer for example, wasnt he vanquished by our hero jake during jillian harris's season? Wasnt he, like justin, just an evil, evil man who, horror, of horrors, wasnt there for the right reason?
and if weatherman and slimy-craig are on the show, then boy, they must have gone straight from the ali man-mansion to the bachelor pad!
Hey if any of you guys read reality steve yesterday early afternoon he said he was misinformed got it wrong and that what was really happening was Ally picked ROberto, broke it off with Chris before the final rose ceremony which is why they never showed video of it, and that frank never had plans to make an appearance. While he may have initally been wrong, he still managed to give out the true ending before the show started...so stop hating!! If you don't want to read the spoilers, DON'T. Otherwise, get over it!
Ali picked the right guy, Roberto. I don't think Chris being a landscaper in Cape Cod, would have fit into her life style. He needs a country girl as she sometimes looks sleepy and boring! Congratulations Ali and Roberto, you make a terrific couple. Please keep it going.
Does anyone know why there was no studio audience at After the Final Rose??
Did anyone notice that in the preview for the "After the Final Rose" Chris and Ali looked to have some sort of argument? Chris looked upset about something and Ali was denying what he said. I just found that weird because it wasn't shown on camera. Makes me think that they aren't getting along outside of the show.
