The Bachelor: Brad Womack Talks to Ellen

Lately, reality dating shows haven't been producing very good and lasting relationships between people, and The Bachelor is one to consider. Usually after the finale of the dreamy season, there are only two things that may happen, either the couple stays together for good, or they buy some time and pretend to be OK then split after a few months or even weeks.

However, this season of The Bachelor will not have any of that, as Brad Womack did not choose between the final two women at all. He remained single from the start, and ended the show as just the Bachelor, in the real sense of the word.

Womack recently appeared on the Ellen Degeneres Show, giving light to his final decision during the season ender. He also expressed his sincerest apologies to those who have been hurt along the way. Moreover, he said a few things that seemed different from what the producers of the show recently said.

Womack said that he regretted telling DeAnna Pappas that the final rose ceremony would be a "good day" for her.

"I definitely regret that…I don't know if I got caught up in the moment. I don't know if I was trying to comfort her," he admitted. "I bear the full brunt of responsibility for saying that. I do. She deserves someone to be straightforward and honest, which I thought I was. That's one very, very bad decision of mine that I made."

Womack also clarified that he did not ask directly for Pappas' father to be flown out to be there on the final night.

"What I did say is a proposal was such a big deal to me that a phone call was not sufficient, if and when that proposal would happen," he explained. "When it got to that day, I was informed that Deanna's father was flown out. I never one time asked for Deanna's father to be flown out. Never one single time."

Taking all this into consideration, we can again hold the producers at fault for making hasty decisions and false public statements. Chastened by Womack's revelation, Ellen DeGeneres actually apologized for previously calling him a jerk. This makes the audience wonder, aren't the producers putting too much effort on dramatizing a reality show which is supposed to solely focus on just that--reality?
