00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,240
Speaker 5: You know, you can start to just do some normal,

17
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,319

00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: A wolf emji for me?

22
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, wolf emogi. The wolf emoji is totally giving it up.

23
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: If I'm one of your friends and I saw it

24
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: and I see the wolf, I'm like, oh, you're Grant.

25
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 3: I don't know what I was thinking, but it worked.

26
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 3: I mean it were it worked.

27
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: So what is Juliana for you? What has been the

28
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: hardest part of keeping this a secret.

29
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 5: Probably just not being able to tell like my big family,

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 5: you know, my parents know, my sister and my brother know.

31
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 5: But I just have so many aunts and uncles and

32
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 5: cousins that want to support me throughout this whole process,

33
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 5: and they tried to do their best, but it's like

34
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 5: they are so excited.

35
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 7: So did you have like a little script that you

36
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 7: would give when people would ask you, so, how did

37
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 7: it go?

38
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 8: I would just say, well, because there were some spoilers

39
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 8: out there, So I think my family really tried to

40
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 8: like act like they knew without just like even asking me,

41
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 8: and I'd be like, don't don't believe everything you read,

42
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 8: you know.

43
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,559
Speaker 2: You know, so just kind of that, but they didn't.

44
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: They didn't push too hard, which is nice, Grant.

45
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: How about for you keeping it a secret?

46
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 3: Ah?

47
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 4: Man, I think I just, you know, my close family

48
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 4: and friends knew. But the hardest thing for me was

49
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 4: just not being able to like be around Jules or

50
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 4: you know, see her like once every couple of weeks.

51
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 4: It's difficult, but you know, I mean I almost spoiled

52
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 4: the season myself, so I just it was like it

53
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 4: was like I was I was struggling.

54
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 3: I was struggling. How did you almost?

55
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 4: I was like, so, there was a night where she

56
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 4: sent me It was New Year's Eve and it was

57
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 4: and I liked one of her pictures because I thought

58
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 4: it was like I thought it was like a post. No,

59
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 4: I liked one of I didn't like one of her pictures.

60
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 4: I liked one of the pictures she was in, but

61
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 4: it was from a DJ, and I liked. His name

62
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 4: is Mikey B And I liked his picture and I

63
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 4: was just one too many shots I had that night.

64
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 6: So, oh my gosh, that's so funny. I didn't know that.

65
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 7: Did you guys get any advice from any other Bachelor

66
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,839
Speaker 7: couples on just how to kind of get through these

67
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 7: first few months off the show when you're in hiding?

68
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.

69
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 4: I spoke to Joanes and Chalk. You know, they've been

70
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 4: really instrumental for me in this process and and us,

71
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 4: and they just, you know, they just just be yourself

72
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 4: and don't worry about anybody else. You know, it's your

73
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 4: love story and focusing on that, and people are gonna

74
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 4: the people that.

75
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 3: Are gonna rock with you are going to rock with

76
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 3: you to do it or not they're not.

77
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: So I think that was the main advice, and I

78
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 4: think that's something that we're taking.

79
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

80
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 5: I talked to Kelsey and Daisy two, and I think

81
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 5: they were just really insightful, especially Kelsey because she had

82
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 5: to re watch everything and even though it's like months away,

83
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 5: you know, it still brings up questions and conversations that

84
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:37,839
Speaker 5: you have to have.

85
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: But she just, you know, really reiterated.

86
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 5: The fact that it's been so long since that happened,

87
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 5: and you like, we've come so far that it's not

88
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 5: really worth like harping on. You know, you can ask

89
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 5: the questions and have the conversations, but it shouldn't really

90
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 5: change your mind because we're together now.

91
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: You know.

92
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think Kelsey is a good person

93
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: for you to talk to. You, Like Juliana, you're in

94
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: a situation that like, you know, only a handful of

95
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: castmates go through, where you like it's your first time

96
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: on reality TV and you go from like not really

97
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: knowing much to like you're engaged and you know, you've

98
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: never really done this before. Where most of us were

99
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: cast mats for a minute, like even Grant he was,

100
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: you know, on the show, and then becomes the bachelor,

101
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: so he has a taste of reality TV where you

102
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: really don't have that. So connecting with someone like Kelsey,

103
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: I would think is pretty important.

104
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was super helpful for sure.

105
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 6: Nice watching it back.

106
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 7: Was there an episode that was maybe each more challenging

107
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 7: or did you have like a favorite episode to watch back.

108
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 3: I think favorite episode was definitely our date in Scotland.

109
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 7: You must have been like, finally, like you're watching the

110
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 7: whole season wanting to see your love story and like

111
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 7: you had such a late one on one.

112
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 6: You must have been like, yes, it's our time.

113
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, so fun, there you go.

114
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: I think I think one hundred percent.

115
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 4: I think that watching our moments that we had on

116
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 4: camera just reiterates our connection and what makes it unique

117
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 4: and what makes it special and the depth that we have.

118
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 4: I think it's just something that can be replicated. So

119
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 4: it's something that's like I'm I'm excited and I'm really

120
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 4: happy that we're together.

121
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, She's like, yeah.

122
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 6: I would hope, so Grant.

123
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: She's right, all.

124
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: Right, let's bring it back to the final episode. Juliana.

125
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: What was it like meeting Grant's family?

126
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 2: It was so nerve wracking. I think just because I can.

127
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 5: I'm like a nervous nelly, you know, and I'm a

128
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 5: little awkward, and so I haven't done that in a

129
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 5: really long time. But immediately when I walked in the room,

130
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 5: I could feel just so much love and excitement that

131
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 5: that kind of just like went to and I was

132
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 5: just interested to get to really know them and have

133
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 5: them get to know me so that he could confide

134
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 5: in them and and see, you know, their opinions on

135
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 5: me and if they thought that we would be a

136
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 5: good fit, because you know, I know I lean on

137
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 5: my family when when I'm like in a tough decision,

138
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 5: and you did have a tough decision to make.

139
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 2: So it was really exciting. Uh you know, your mom

140
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: was so awesome and your dad's.

141
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,799
Speaker 5: Amazing, and Taylor really helped me like kind of calm down.

142
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 5: So all around, it was awesome.

143
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 7: Grant, did your family behave as you expected them to

144
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 7: or responded you expected them to?

145
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,799
Speaker 4: So a little fun fact, my mom was like obsessed

146
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 4: with Juliana. She was like.

147
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 3: Dreams and visions.

148
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 4: I'm like, Mom, like just just let's talk, you know,

149
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 4: let's just take it one step at a time. But

150
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 4: you know, I think that my family loved them, and

151
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 4: they loved the energy that she she brung, and they

152
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 4: loved everything that I saw.

153
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 3: They saw the same thing. So they're so they behaved.

154
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 7: They were in the behave Okay, nothing like shocking.

155
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 3: I wasn't I'd have to worry about them like anything

156
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 3: crazy or embarrassing.

157
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: It seemed like and it seemed like your dad was

158
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: really comfortable with Juliana as well. I know that was

159
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: something I noticed when I was watching. I was like,

160
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,119
Speaker 1: this is this all is like clicking. It's making sense,

161
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: which is important. You know, you want to like the

162
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: family and you want them to like you because they don't, then.

163
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 3: You know, if they don't, you're.

164
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: Gonna have some issues down the road. Okay, how are you?

165
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: How are you? Were you both feeling on your last

166
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: date together?

167
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: Well, it was I don't know.

168
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 5: I think throughout the whole like process, I really tried

169
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 5: to just stay kind of calm, and I think I

170
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 5: said this last time, but my mom gave me this

171
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 5: advice that if it's meant to be, it will be,

172
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 5: and if not.

173
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: That's okay.

174
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 5: So I feel like by that time when you came

175
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 5: over that last night, I was like I knew that

176
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 5: it was going to be us in the end, but

177
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 5: I was just trying not to to like think that

178
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 5: that was the case one hundred percent because I did.

179
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 2: I think I did know.

180
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, because he sat down and you started just

181
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,559
Speaker 5: like yapping away like all these things.

182
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 2: You had to stop yourself because he was like, I

183
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 2: feel like I'm proposing right now, and I was like, okay,

184
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 2: you can keep going.

185
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 7: Up, you know, But.

186
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was it was calming, and and then when

187
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 2: you left.

188
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, shoot, like he's going to do

189
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 5: this with somebody else too, So you know, that thought

190
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 5: never left the back of my mind, and I did

191
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 5: try to protect myself from just like focusing on the

192
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 5: fact that I thought it was me.

193
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 2: But ultimately, you know, I got I tried to stay

194
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: positive too.

195
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: Man, where was like your confidence meter when there was

196
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: four of you left? Like, where where did you think?

197
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: Did you think it was you? Then?

198
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 5: I feel like I I feel like I knew.

199
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 2: I feel like I knew it was from like.

200
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: Night one, really Okay.

201
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did, you know.

202
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 5: I think it's hard to maneuver that situation, but just

203
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 5: our conversations were so sincere, and every single time we chatted,

204
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 5: it was like we got to know each other on

205
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 5: a deeper level and that.

206
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,119
Speaker 2: We were really progressing.

207
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 5: It might have been slow because I'm you know, a

208
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 5: little closed off, but it didn't feel like we were

209
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,439
Speaker 5: at any point backtracking, and it always was adding more

210
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 5: like hope to I don't know the end result, so

211
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 5: I think with four of us, though, it's like, wow, Okay.

212
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 5: You know, first of all, everybody was so amazing, all

213
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 5: the girls, and so that is a really odd situation

214
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 5: to be in because you know, you don't ever want

215
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 5: to compare yourself to anybody else, but it's comparison by

216
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 5: like the nature of what circumstance we're in, right, and

217
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 5: you know, the last four were amazing.

218
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: So I was definitely nervous as heck, but I just

219
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 2: also still tried to be like, it's me, it's me.

220
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 7: I think like that mentality is sometimes helpful to just

221
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 7: be like, yep, it's me, and until I feel like

222
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 7: he's giving me a reason to believe it's not me,

223
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna go with that totally and obviously worked

224
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 7: out in your favor because it was you.

225
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: Grant you had. You had a pretty tough time on

226
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: that last day, like I would say most leads do,

227
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 1: especially what Latia will. Obviously with Latia because she was

228
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: the only person there. How, like, I guess what's the

229
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: most difficult part about that? Because on one hand you're

230
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: extremely happy because you're about to propose to the woman

231
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: of your dreams, and on the other hand, you're breaking

232
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: someone's heart.

233
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 3: That's that's the most difficult thing.

234
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 4: It's like, you know, you know what you have to do,

235
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 4: you have to stand on business, but at the same

236
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 4: time you have to It's difficult because you're you're letting

237
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 4: someone down and the time is dwindling, you know, and

238
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 4: it's like your night one, everything is fun, and then

239
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 4: you get to that last day and your hours before

240
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 4: and the time is dwindling down and you're knowing that

241
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 4: you have to you know, you don't have to break

242
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 4: someone's heart. So I think that's the most difficult thing.

243
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 4: But ultimately, you have to think about what you want

244
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 4: and you have to think about yourself. You have to

245
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 4: think about what the best decision for you is going

246
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 4: to be. And that's that's what I did, and you know, yeah,

247
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 4: I think it worked out.

248
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 6: So yeah, well.

249
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 5: With Rose ceremonies just in general, like I think letting

250
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 5: people down with something that you had a hard time with.

251
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: It was hard too.

252
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 4: And then when like being a bachelor, it's like you're

253
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 4: you're getting to know these women. It's like you don't

254
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 4: want to be closed off. And the more open you are,

255
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 4: the more your feelings developed, and the more you care

256
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 4: about certain stories.

257
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 3: And just people in general. You know, it doesn't even

258
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 3: have to be a.

259
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 4: Love so you just care about where they're coming from.

260
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 4: And then you have to be like, well, listen, like

261
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 4: you see them up on the the you see them

262
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 4: all standing there, and then like people are nervous. I

263
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 4: remember I was nervous there too, Like I almost passed

264
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 4: on you, and you see him nervous and then you

265
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 4: and then they don't get the name called and it's

266
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 4: just so it's just it's just really difficult, but you

267
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 4: gotta do what you gotta do.

268
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: And I guess like the more the more open you are,

269
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: the more the women you're dating, I'll think it's like, oh,

270
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: he's he's just open with just me, like this is

271
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: only me, and then.

272
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 3: Like that, if you're open and caring, you're it's difficult.

273
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 4: But then if you're closed off and you're just like

274
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 4: you know I understand or you're like like you just

275
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 4: it's just it's not it's hard.

276
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 3: It's difficult. It's difficult.

277
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: It's difficult.

278
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 7: What were the steps or your process to get to

279
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 7: a position where you were like, Okay, I'm one hundred

280
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 7: percent going into this day proposing to Juliana. I feel

281
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 7: like locked in and calm and confident about the decision.

282
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

283
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 4: I always was confident in our connection. I think my

284
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 4: dad coming back and really we had a conversation off

285
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 4: camera and he just reiterated to me, you know, it's

286
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 4: not about what what anybody else thinks.

287
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 3: It's about what you want. It's about what your heart

288
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 3: needs and what your heart wants.

289
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 4: And I feel like his advice really helped me like

290
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 4: get over the edge and get over the hump of knowing,

291
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 4: and then at that point, it's just getting to the

292
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 4: end and be like, listen, this has to be done.

293
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 4: You know, you can't delay it. It's inevitable. So it's like,

294
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 4: but getting to that point, you know, you know, you

295
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 4: know what your heart wants and you know what you need.

296
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 4: It's just getting it done, getting to the finish line

297
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 4: and doing it.

298
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, I feel like I'm someone that like, even if

299
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 7: you know what you want, locking that in means accepting

300
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 7: that you're going to hurt someone else in the process.

301
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 7: And like in your position, there's literally no way of

302
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 7: avoiding it, Like you know, every single week you're going

303
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 7: to have to hurt someone on a bigger, bigger scale.

304
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 7: Did that just add to the weight of all of it?

305
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 7: Probably that last day.

306
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it adds. And an I'm the type of person.

307
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 4: I've been through so much conflict in my life and

308
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 4: so much like tension and a lot of struggle that

309
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 4: I'm I'm the type of person I don't I don't

310
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 4: initiate confusion or unless it's necessary. So at the end,

311
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 4: I'm like, Okay, this has it has to be done,

312
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 4: you know, like this has to be done. It's no

313
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 4: there's no working around it, or there's no meaning in

314
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 4: the middle gress like this has to be this has

315
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 4: to be done.

316
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 3: So it comes down to the wire at that point,

317
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 3: you know, I would have.

318
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: Left her, would have left her like a video message,

319
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: she would have got to and if she would have

320
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: got to the podium, there had just been a laptop

321
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: and it's just that I would have been pressed meeky.

322
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: So that's got some bad news.

323
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 7: Oh my god, that's a terrible idea, julianaware was your

324
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 7: thoughts and head at that last day, I.

325
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 5: Think it was pretty same, you know, throughout the whole

326
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 5: thing is I did feel really confident, but I just

327
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 5: I just knew that there was also somebody else there, right,

328
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 5: and so I was prayered to go in there and

329
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 5: spill my heart out. And I told him, you know,

330
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 5: I was like, if it wasn't me, of course I

331
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 5: would have been frustrated and upset, But at the end

332
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 5: of the day, no matter who he picked, if he

333
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 5: felt it was the right person, I just wanted him

334
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 5: to be happy.

335
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 2: And at that point I cared so much.

336
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 5: About you know, you that I I just that was

337
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 5: my main concern because I knew that I had an

338
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 5: army of people waiting for me to come back home too.

339
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 5: I knew I was going to be fine. I knew

340
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 5: I could get through like another heartbreak if that was

341
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 5: the case. But you know, I just I felt nervous

342
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 5: for him and for Lysia and for myself, but I

343
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 5: just tried to stay permative.

344
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 6: Well tired.

345
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 7: It's a big day, so you probably just you know,

346
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 7: even though you're going into it feeling very confident.

347
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 6: It just feels like a big day.

348
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 2: It's so nerve wracking.

349
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you also said, Juliana after Fantasy Sweets,

350
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 1: because I think you were the first to go. It's

351
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: like everything went great, but not like I'm sending him

352
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: off and he's still dating other women and like our

353
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: connection might have you know, at the time, you know,

354
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: one through one hundred was one hundred, but like what

355
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: happens if somebody else is one hundred and five and

356
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: I don't even know and I'm sitting around for five.

357
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 6: You're just probably sitting.

358
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: Talk like how did you how did you stay calm

359
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: during that? Like during those Yeah.

360
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 5: So my parents and a couple of my friends sent

361
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 5: wrote me letters before I left, and I really, yeah,

362
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 5: that like saved me, you know, because you're so cut

363
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 5: off from from your safety and your comfort that, you know.

364
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 5: They they wrote me some pretty long letters, and every

365
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 5: day I would read them and just remind myself. And

366
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 5: like I said earlier, my mom said, if it's meant

367
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 5: to be, it will be, and if not, that's okay too.

368
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 5: And I just kept trying to replay that in my

369
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 5: head and remind myself that like, no matter what happens,

370
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 5: I'm going to be okay. And yeah, I mean I

371
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 5: definitely spiraled a bunch, but at the end of the day,

372
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 5: I was like, Okay, there's nothing I can do to

373
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 5: control the situation, right, And I just pray that if

374
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 5: if there was anything that I could change, like in

375
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 5: our time together, that I would do that and I

376
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 5: would be able to give my all and give you

377
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 5: the most information that you could make the best decision

378
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 5: for you, and just like have peace with the things

379
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 5: I can control and just know the difference is really

380
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 5: all it is.

381
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, Grant, how did you choose the engagement ring?

382
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 6: Let's see it? Show us on camera. I know pretty

383
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 6: is an emerald cut?

384
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:47,640
Speaker 9: Yes?

385
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 2: So pretty?

386
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 6: Is that what you wanted?

387
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 2: I have a cushion cut with a halout.

388
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 6: You wanted an emerald?

389
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 3: Yeah?

390
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 2: And I want a Google though. It was very.

391
00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 3: Style.

392
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 4: I know her style a little, so I definitely knew that,

393
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 4: you know, that's a ring that she would she would love.

394
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 3: I think I think I picked right.

395
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: It did Again, does.

396
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: It make it feel more real? The Grant? Did it

397
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: make it feel more real to you? Like sitting in

398
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: that room in that moment and like seeing the rings

399
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: and being like, oh this is yeah, yeah.

400
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 3: That was like a really surreal moment.

401
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 4: And then putting the ring on her finger was another

402
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 4: life was another surreal moment. You know, it's actually seeing

403
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,439
Speaker 4: it on her hand, but picking out rings. You know,

404
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 4: that ring stood out to me.

405
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 3: So it was hard, but it wasn't really that hard,

406
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 3: you know, it.

407
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: Wasn't I know. I know Letia had talked about more

408
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: of like a harder timeline when it came to marriage

409
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: and having kids. Have you two talked about a timeline

410
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: for anything? Is like, where are you at now as

411
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: far as getting married or are you just like we're

412
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 1: in the honeymoon phase. We're gonna see how this goes

413
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: type of thing.

414
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

415
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 4: I think our relationship is, you know, we are two

416
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 4: people were very much in tune and we're we haven't

417
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 4: talked hard timeline yet, but we've been you know, we

418
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 4: know what we want ultimately and that's the end goal.

419
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 4: But we still have to meet each other's family and

420
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 4: like we have to. Everybody has to connect. And me,

421
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 4: I'm going to come out there to Boston and you know,

422
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 4: be out there for like a year maybe and then

423
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 4: we'll see, you know, where things are you.

424
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 5: Know at that point that's nice to do, you know,

425
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 5: to feel like that makes sense.

426
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: I feel like at least for the both of us,

427
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: you know, family friends, normal dinners.

428
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 5: Traveling, getting mad at each other, getting sad, like all

429
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 5: the things we have to go through. Not saying that,

430
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 5: you know, that's not going to be the end goal.

431
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 5: It's just that to jump the gun and start talking

432
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 5: about those things while we're still really trying to digest

433
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 5: life together in the our world, it doesn't seem I

434
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 5: think fair to either of us.

435
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: You know, I think the most important step is figuring

436
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: out the living situation because that's immediately that's where things

437
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: will get can get tricky.

438
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 7: So you guys are going to be living in Boston, Grant,

439
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 7: are you excited? You've never lived in Boston before?

440
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 4: Right, I've never lived in Boston, but I'm an East

441
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 4: Coast person, And the good thing about this is like,

442
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 4: I'm not tied down to Houston or I'm not tied

443
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 4: so I have.

444
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,879

Speaker 4: you know, I'm gonna do with what needs to be

447
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 4: done to make things work. So I feel like, yeah,

457
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: and when and when you're talking, you're also probably like

458
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 1: he might dump me right now, like he could.

459
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 2: I was so nervous. I feel like you can see

460
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 2: it in more.

461
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 6: Were you like looking for signs in his face? Yes?

462
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:16,199
Speaker 1: I was.

463
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 2: I was just nervous.

464
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 6: You were nervous?

465
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 3: You could?

466
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 1: You could tell you?

467
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah.

468
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 2: I couldn't even breathe. I think my whole body was shaking.

469
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 2: My soul like.

470
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 5: Left my body, and I was just trying to make

471
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 5: it through because I knew there were things I wanted

472
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 5: to say. But then you get up there and it's

473
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 5: almost like you black out, and I was like trying

474
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 5: to remember the things and I'm breathed, like heavy breathing,

475
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 5: and I'm just looking at him, and you know, you

476
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 5: were smiling a lot, and I just felt like, okay,

477
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 5: just take a deep breath because you know, I think,

478
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 5: I think it's me so I can just try and

479
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 5: get through this and not like faint and pass away.

480
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 5: Then hopefully I'll have a ring on my finger.

481
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 6: Yeah, I.

482
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 3: Was. I was happy.

483
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 4: I was relieved, you know when, because the hard part,

484
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 4: the hard part was over and now it was time

485
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 4: to just look forward to, you know, being happy in

486
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 4: the future.

487
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 3: And I think that's what I was doing. So when

488
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 3: Juliana walked up, I like, I there was no pressure

489
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 3: for me. I was like I would just wanted to

490
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 3: reassure her as soon as possible.

491
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 4: So because she didn't like pass out, I was like, okay,

492
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 4: like let's you know, and I think that. Yeah, it

493
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 4: was just it was just good vibes after that, and

494
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 4: then I was I was ready to start to just

495
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 4: start life, you know.

496
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, so cameras off. You guys just got engaged. What

497
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: how you did?

498
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 6: What do you do that night?

499
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: How are you feeling?

500
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: We were so excited.

501
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 5: I think we just popped so many bottles.

502
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 3: We was, you know, some food, some wine. We had

503
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 3: just having a good time, you know, dancing and we

504
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 3: had a great time.

505
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 2: It felt so crazy, you know.

506
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 5: I think one of the things that I feel like

507
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 5: we both were so excited for was when the cameras

508
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 5: were gone, you know, and you're so in the process.

509
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 2: It's like all this flits.

510
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 5: And glam and like minimal time and serious conversations that

511
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 5: have to happen, and then it's like, Okay, now it's done,

512
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 5: and now we can really just like breathe and kind

513
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 5: of like go back to the start and have like

514
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 5: smaller conversations and just like enjoy each other's company.

515
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 2: And that's exactly what we.

516
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 3: Did, what we're still doing.

517
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, we enjoy being around each other and there's no

518
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 4: like it's just natural, you know. So I think that's

519
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 4: the main thing, and I think that that sets us

520
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 4: up for success, you know.

521
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

522
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 6: Yeah.

523
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 7: I remember after the engagement, like while we were on

524
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 7: Paradise and dropping, like I felt elated, Like I remember,

525
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 7: you're the adrenaline is going so hard.

526
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,479
Speaker 6: You're like, that was the craziest thing I've ever done

527
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 6: in my life.

528
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 7: I'm engaged, but like I'm so happy and in love

529
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 7: and you're just like and like I just feel like

530
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 7: you're intimacy, Like the connection between the two of you

531
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 7: can just skyrocket forward so much faster because you're now

532
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 7: moving kind of you have all this time together that

533
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 7: you didn't have before.

534
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 5: It, and you know that there's you know, nobody else

535
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 5: involved at that point, it's like finally just you two.

536
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 5: So it's like the nervousness and kind of like the

537
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 5: walls that maybe I still had up just to protect myself.

538
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 5: I just felt like everything was down and I was

539
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 5: so happy and free and just excited.

540
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: Honestly, it's almost like the start of a new relationship.

541
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: You almost have to look at it like like, hey,

542
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: like you know, he was on a dating app while

543
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: we were dating, and now he's no longer on it.

544
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 3: Were engaged, and you know, the crazy thing. As much.

545
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 4: As much turmoil and as much as hard as the

546
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 4: journey is, I'm really appreciative because without this, I wouldn't

547
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,479
Speaker 4: have met Jules, and I wouldn't have you know, I

548
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 4: was obviously, you know, you're stressing out.

549
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 3: It's coming down to the wire. It's a high stake situation.

550
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 4: But it led to a really fast track process where

551
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 4: we really know each other and we have a really

552
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 4: good head start because we you know, who not a

553
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 4: lot of people get to go on dates and talk

554
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 4: about you know, life and and talk about common things

555
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 4: that you went through and get to know each other

556
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 4: the second time you talk, and it really it really

557
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 4: forges a bond that's like, Okay, well, you know, you

558
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 4: know this person, you know what their their core.

559
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 3: Values, already know what they're made up of. So yeah,

560
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: I'm grateful, you know.

561
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: Grant the Oh sorry, Grant. The first time we interviewed you,

562
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: were you at all expecting the kind of pressure this

563
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: was going to be.

564
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 3: I didn't know what. I didn't know what. I literally

565
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 3: went there. I'm like, I'm about to look for love

566
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 3: and I'm about to myself.

567
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 2: You know.

568
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: I went in there so naive and you know, it's

569
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 3: it's crazy, but it worked. So that's one of those

570
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 3: things that.

571
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 6: You just don't know what.

572
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 1: You don't know.

573
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't know. You know what I'm saying, you

574
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 3: don't know.

575
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 4: And I think the one thing about me is I'm

576
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 4: always going to be myself, Like I don't care, I'm

577
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 4: going to be myself and attracts the energy that you

578
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 4: need in your life, you know.

579
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 3: And I feel like that's just something that I stand by.

580
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 4: I think that's something that Julie stands by, and that's

581
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 4: what really attracted me to her.

582
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 6: It's so funny.

583
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,720

Speaker 6: Fucking hard.

592
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 2: I saw that there was like a meme of him

Speaker 5: all and everybody was like, those are two different.

596
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: It's like it's like you're a little kid, like for

00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: roller coaster, you're like nauseous.

600
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 6: Like the guys, they're.

601
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 7: Great, Juliana, this is obviously all new for you as

602
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 7: well as your family.

603
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 6: What do they think.

604
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 2: Of all of this?

605
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, like when you first told him you got engaged.

606
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 2: Well, what's funny is my dad didn't know that that's

607
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 2: how this ended.

608
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 5: And yeah, and like right before the hometown my sister

609
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 5: said that to him. She's like, you know, you have

610
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 5: to ask him like some hard hitting questions, and he

611
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 5: was like, what, like, how does that work?

612
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 2: You know?

613
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,919
Speaker 5: And he was definitely I think he was unsure about it,

614
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 5: but he had enough like trust in me that he's like,

615
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 5: if that's what she wants, and that's what you decide,

616
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 5: you know. After he met you, he was like, Okay,

617
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 5: it'll be fine. You know, they'll they'll make it work.

618
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 5: And I think everybody's just so excited, you know, Like

619
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 5: I said, my aunts and some of my cousins are like,

620
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 5: he is such an amazing.

621
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: Man, Like you guys are going to be perfect together.

622
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 4: Anything about her dad was like he came in and

623
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 4: you could tell he wanted to like ask hard hitting questions,

624
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 4: and then we just connected and bonded and then we

625
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 4: just were like having a it was like a chat.

626
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 3: It was like I met him before. I didn't even

627
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 3: it was it was. It was a really crazy situation.

628
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 7: That's good, but I feel like sometimes that's the best

629
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 7: way to get to know someone is just to have

630
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 7: a genuine conversation with them.

631
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,000

Speaker 5: Well, you know, I think that there's so there's so

666
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 5: much more to like our relationship that was formed than

667
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 5: you know, what everybody got to see.

668
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: And that's fine.

669
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:42,959
Speaker 5: Sure, I really tried to just compartmentalize like what I

670
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 5: actually experienced and what we actually, you know, founded our

671
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 5: relationship on versus kind of what was being like shown.

672
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 2: Not that that not that it wasn't true, you know.

673
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 5: I mean, we did have those deep, dark conversations that

674
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 5: we needed to, but there's just so much more. And

675
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 5: so I think Scotland was really fun because you got

676
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 5: to see just how kind of easy going we are

677
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 5: together and like get a little insight as to how

678
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 5: calm I think we are around each other.

679
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 2: And then we.

680
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 5: Did obviously have such a commonality between our upbringings that

681
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 5: allowed us to kind of feel like we could see

682
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 5: each other pushing one another to grow and always be

683
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 5: looking to like better yourself as a person. But at

684
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 5: the same time, it's like loving who you are in

685
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 5: this day. So it's been it's been a whirlwind. It's

686
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 5: been really fun, and it's been crazy to think that

687
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 5: I experienced it and then like we get to like

688
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 5: watch it back well, you know when does that all right?

689
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,080
