Bachelorette Kaitlyn Bristowe and Jason Tartick engaged after ‘intense surprise proposal’ that left star ‘blacked out’
KAITLYN Bristowe is engaged to boyfriend, Jason Tartick - whom also starred on the ABC franchise - after dating nearly three years.
The Bachelorette-turned-franchise-host said “yes” after a “beautiful” Nashville, Tennessee proposal on Monday while she was in the middle of filming her Off The Vine podcast.
The duo revealed that the proposal happened while they were filming an episode of Kaitlyn’s Off the Vine podcast together.
In March, Warner Horizon and ABC Entertainment - who produce the Bachelor franchise - shared the news in a lengthy statement.
"Chris Harrison will not be hosting the next season of The Bachelorette. We support Chris in the work that he is committed to doing," it read.
His replacements were then named as the statement continued: "In his absence, former Bachelorettes Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe will support the new Bachelorette through the next season."
The message then moved on to addressing changes within the show, stating: "As we continue the dialogue around achieving greater equity and inclusion with the Bachelor franchise, we are dedicated to improving the BIPOC representation of our crew, including among the executive producer ranks.
