Will Bachelor Chris Soules and his fiancée, Whitney Bischoff, ever pick a wedding date and get married? There is a small percentage of Bachelor fans who are suckers for a good love story and honestly believe that Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff will get their happily ever after. The rest of us are realists. We have seen Bachelor and Bachelorette couples flop before and we all know the signs that the relationship is a complete sham or not going to amount to anything more than a showmance – and Chris and Whitney’s engagement is full of those signs.
I don’t wish anything bad on Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff, everyone loves a good love story and televised wedding like Sean and Catherine’s. But, I have watched the show long enough to know whether or not a couple is the real deal – and there is nothing “real” about Chris and Whitney’s engagement. Basically, the couple was doomed from the beginning. Anyone who watched this season of The Bachelor can tell you that Whitney won by default. Chris desperately wanted to pick Becca Tilley – and he pleaded with her the night before the rose ceremony to reconsider moving to Iowa or getting engaged, and she bluntly told him that she was not ready. How can a relationship last when it started by default?
Throughout The Bachelor, Chris Soules rambled on about how he couldn’t wait to get married and move back to Iowa and start a family – when he thought he was going to be engaged to Becca. Doesn’t anyone find it suspicious that after all of the talking Chris did about getting married, he suddenly refused to even set a wedding date or talk about wedding plans?
Aside from the fact that Chris Soules ended up with his second choice, we also have to take in to consideration the fact that The Bachelor got a taste of celebrity life, and he doesn’t want to back to Iowa and settle down on the farm. Soules has lived a sheltered life, and he finally is in California surrounded by beautiful women who are throwing themselves at him and he is the center of attention. Why would he want to give all of that up and go back to being Farmer-Joe in a town smaller than the apartment complex he is living in while performing on Dancing With The Stars?
So, if Chris and Whitney got together by default and he has no intention of getting married – then why hasn’t he broken up with her? Well, that’s the kicker – anyone who is familiar with The Bachelor knows that if Chris and Whitney break up they will fade in to Bachelor oblivion. The paparazzi won’t be snapping photos of them, TV networks will not be scheduling interviews, and reality TV shows won’t be knocking on their doors.
Chris Soules can’t break up with Whitney, or else he will lose the celebrity status he has fallen in love with. Whitney Bischoff could care less about the celebrity status, although it is nice to know that she isn’t living a mundane life as a nurse in Chicago and people actually are taking interest in her. Whitney has had baby fever since she debuted on The Bachelor, she is obsessed with starting a family and getting married. She doesn’t seem to mind that her future husband doesn’t want to be tied down – as long as she gets a wedding and a baby she is content.
At this point, Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff will ride out their engagement until either the buzz around them wears off and Chris doesn’t need his faux fiancée anymore. Or, until Whitney realizes that he has no intention of settling down with her and giving her the wedding and babies he promised her when the cameras were rolling. Do you think that Chris and Whitney will actually get married? Or do you think that it is just a matter of time before they break up? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
