The romantic engagement, where Roberto told Ali “I want to be that man for you. I want to make sure that you wake up every morning for the rest of your life knowing that you’re so, so loved,” followed another tumultuous heart break when Ali sent Chris Lambton. home the day before the final rose ceremony.

“I feel like you have all the qualities you want in somebody…even if two people really enjoy spending time together and hanging out doesn’t mean it is what is supposed to be. Do you understand what I’m saying? I’m in love with somebody else.” Ali said to a stunned Chris.
“I have to let you go right here and not wait until tomorrow. This wasn’t an easy decision; I just didn’t want to put you through this tomorrow.”
Ali said she knew it was the right decision. “I know I love Roberto and I know Chris has been through a lot in his life and I don’t want to be the cause of any more hurt.”
The drama filled season of The Bachelorette was a romantic roller coaster from the first episode.
