Chris Soules may have given the final rose to Whitney Bischoff, but media outlets suggest that he is still in love with the runner-up Becca Tilley. "The Bachelor" star reportedly wanted Tilley as his wife.
A source is telling In Touch (via Hollywood Life), that Tilley was "the one" Soules saw as his wife. "He loved her. And he probably still does. You don't just fall out of love with someone," the unnamed insider revealed.
Soules sent Tilley home at the final rose ceremony. The reality star was in tears as he bid goodbye to the bachelorette. Later, however, Soules presented a Neil Lane ring to Bischoff and popped the ultimate question to the 29-year-old fertility nurse. Fans saw that Bischoff accepted the proposal and the season ended with an engagement.
However, the bachelor has reportedly started feeling the burden of "making things work with" Bischoff. As per the source, Soules is currently trying to keep himself busy with "Dancing with the Stars."
Meanwhile, Dr. Lillian Glass a body language and communication expert told Hollywood Life that "family's influence" led Soules to give the final rose to Bischoff. But it is "clearly not where his heart was," the expert added.
Observing the bachelor's body language during the "after the Final Rose Ceremony," Glass claims that Soules was "passionate" towards Tilley.
"He fully embraced her and held on to her. If he was clearly in love with Whitney he would have hung on to Becca for so long," the expert explained.
Further Glass explained that during their interview with "Good Morning America," Bischoff leaned towards Soules. She notes that the bachelor did not "reciprocate" to Bischoff and did not respond to her gestures such as when she "nodded at him admiringly."
Meanwhile, Gossip Cop claims that when they dug deeper into the matter, they found out Soules is in love with Bischoff and he only "cares" for Tilley. The website reassures that the bachelor has moved on.
