On Monday night the world watched The Bachelorette and they saw the evil genius brain child of Bachelorette producers recently spawned, called The Proposal, even hosted by former Bachelor and NFL star Jesse Palmer.
Yes, I guess producers decided that 9 weeks to look for a life partner was far too long and they needed to “accelerate” the process so they created a show where potential soulmates don’t actually meet until the end of the show at which time the lead makes a final choice and a proposal — yes Neil Lane is on the scene.
So last night 25-year-old Bakersfield, California police officer, Mike Rowe, got down on one knee and proposed to Monica Villalobos of Anaheim, California.
The two seem perfectly suited for one another, but I guess only time will tell and guess what?
As to the question Are Monica Villalobos and Mike Rowe still together?
Yes!!!
Mike and Monica are still engaged and recorded this message for fans on Twitter:
“Hey guys,” said Mike. “Never thought anything like this would happen in a million years, never thought I’d be on television, never thought I’d get down on one knee and propose to somebody in under an hour — but it happened and I got to meet this beautiful gal. We’ve having a good time and we’re excited for what the future has in store for us.”
They two revealed on Facebook Live why they decided to do such a crazy thing:
Mike said he was approached by producers and Monica said she did it on a whim.
“I’m really glad that I did it,” said Monica. “It’s kind of crazy, but it works!”
“I jumped on board and ended up finding somebody really special,” added Mike. “I thought it was just absolutely awesome, and it worked out in the end.”
