After weeks of emotional confessions and romantic dates, Grant Ellis made a choice that left fans divided—and one woman heartbroken.

On the final night of “The Bachelor,” hearts were broken. Grant Ellis and Litia Garr shared an emotional goodbye during Monday’s season finale. Despite a season filled with connection and vulnerability, Ellis chose to propose to Juliana Pasquarosa, sending Garr home in tears.

The decision shocked many viewers. During the March 24 finale, Garr expressed deep feelings for Ellis. She opened up about their shared one-on-one in Scotland, recalling how his story touched her. “When you talked about your childhood and how hard it was growing up and how alone you felt sometimes,” she said, “I knew that I loved you.”

Garr envisioned a future with him. A family and a home where, as she put it, “their kids would know that they are loved and cherished.” She told Ellis she felt complete with him. That she was lucky to be loved by him. But in the end, Ellis gave his final rose — and a proposal — to Pasquarosa.

The breakup with Garr unfolded in a tense and emotional exchange. Ellis, visibly conflicted, delivered the news with careful words. “I love you very much,” he told her. “I want to give you everything that you deserve, but I’m not your person. And I’m sorry that it got to this point. My emotional connection is stronger with someone else.”

Garr, holding back tears, responded with a sharp reply. “I’m disappointed,” she said. “You’re different than I thought.” The moment marked a turning point in the finale—one that left viewers questioning what had changed behind the scenes.

Following his decision, reactions from fans were swift and divided. “He should have never told Litia over and over he was in love with her for weeks,” one viewer wrote online. Another said, “Yes!! He definitely made the right choice! She just wasn’t there for him. She wanted a baby daddy.”

More reactions continued to flood social media. One viewer commented, “I have to say Litia didn’t look very upset at the end in the limo. And her voice went from the quiet daffodil to the… I dunno, thorn [sic].” Some even questioned the sincerity of her emotions. “She always rubbed me the wrong way. I truly hope she is not the Bachelorette.”

Others were more critical. “Grant, you made a lifetime mistake,” read one comment. As the season closes, debates continue over whether Ellis followed his heart—or made the wrong call.
