AceShowbiz - Juliana Pasquarosa has been facing a barrage of comments since her engagement to Grant Ellis. During the roller coaster finale of "The Bachelor" Season 29 on March 24, Grant, 31, proposed to Juliana, 28, choosing her over runner-up Litia Garr despite his love declaration and early commitment to Litia.
Fans wasted no time taking to social media to express their opinions. One TikTok user wondered if Grant made the same move by gifting Juliana a similar journal to document their relationship, "There's no way he gave Juliana a journal too right?!?" Juliana promptly responded, "He sure did."
The Massachusetts native didn't shy away from addressing harsher critiques either. After a TikTok user insinuated that her intimacy with Grant was the deciding factor for his choice, Juliana clapped back, "So you think after a year of being celibate he just 'gave it up' for me? I'd think again gf & also … get a hobby. … That's a fun narrative to believe if you want to."
Litia herself confronted Grant during the "After the Final Rose" segment hosted by Jesse Palmer. "I asked you that night, 'Please don't make promises to me. I know what I signed up for, and it's really gonna hurt me in the end if you change your mind,' " she said.
Grant apologized on-air but later clarified his stance to Us Weekly: "I let her speak her truth and her piece. I'm not gonna sit up there and argue with her on stage about what she thought I said," he shared. He acknowledged Litia's pain, adding, "I understand."
Juliana, maintaining her composure amidst the drama, wished Litia well, "We are two different individuals and we have to go through this process very uniquely and very true to who we are. And I wish her well."
Ultimately, this season of "The Bachelor" has highlighted the emotional complexities of reality TV romance, leaving fans to ponder over the blurred lines between on-screen narratives and real-life feelings.
