THE BACHELOR UPDATE-AARON & HELENE!!!

OK-so I was @ KING KULLEN this afternoon and I was waiting on line and I picked up a magazine-I can't remember which one-it wasn't a tabliod though-but it had an article saying that Aaron and Helene had split up!! It didn't really give a definitive reason but it went on to say something about the distance and how they were kept apart for a long time after the show was through airing...blah blah blah.....she was quoted as saying that she will live and will go on--they made it sound like it was Aaron who did the breaking up and maybe he was regretting not choosing Brooke!! I totally thought the whole time that Helene was not that interested in him--but oh well--bascially I am obsessed with show and thought I would share the news with those who care....

Intresting

Thanks for the update ... I can't help but wonder about these things too!

I didn't think they would make it. I wonder if she still has that ring though. It was beautiful

helene...when I saw your screenname replied...I almost had a heartattack!!

lol yabbobay i thought the same thing how freaky

Not only is the rumor true, but ABC is now (of course) going to milk the break-up for all it is worth!

Bachelor Calls It Off
Feb 5, 11:02 AM EST

Associated Press

The second 'Bachelor' is still a bachelor.

Aaron Buerge, a 28-year-old banker from Springfield, Mo., proposed to Helene Eksterowicz at the end of the second season of 'The Bachelor,' ABC's romance-reality series in which an eligible guy chooses a bride from among 25 hopefuls.

An estimated 29 million viewers watched the Nov. 20 finale, as Buerge got down on one knee and placed a diamond ring on Eksterowicz' left hand. (He refused to let the show spring for the rock, and insisted on buying it himself.)

Now, he says in the Feb. 17 issue of People magazine that the engagement was over by New Year's.


''There has not been any dagger throwing,' Buerge said, adding that neither had been unfaithful. He said he and Eksterowicz, a 27-year-old school psychologist from Gloucester City, N.J., stay in touch by e-mail, and will explain why the romance died on a Feb. 20 ABC special.

So did Eksterowicz keep the ring? 'That will be revealed,' a network spokeswoman said Wednesday.

Gee, I'm so surprised...I mean really, you'd think they most meaningful relationships in the world can be forged in 3 weeks at a remote tropical location while vying for the attention of one not so hot guy!

Damn does this mean she won't become a member of LI Weddings?
