Dying to know the latest details in the upcoming "The Bachelor" Season 20? Well, latest scoops about the upcoming 2016 season of ABC's reality dating show might sadden fans while some might be ecstatic. Based on the leaked finale report, bachelor Ben Higgins, who placed third on "The Bachelorette" Season 11 featuring Kaitlyn Bristowe, has already found a wife and is engaged to Lauren Bushnell.
While "The Bachelor" Season 20 is yet to premiere on Jan. 4, 2016, blogger and spoiler king Reality Steve has been dropping off the names of the women that Ben Higgins was currently dating. According to Celeb Dirty Laundry, Higgins had already filmed the final rose ceremony on Nov. 18 and proposed to Lauren Bushnell. The engagement came after the 27-year-old Bachelor took his final three women to Sandals Royal Plantation in Jamaica for the overnight fantasy suite dates. Also joining Higgins' reported fiancé Bushnell are Caila Quinn and Jojo Fletcher.
After sending Quinn and Fletcher home, rumors have it that Ben Higgins asked Lauren Bushnell to be his wife and when she said yes, he offered her a Neil Lane ring, Fashion & Style revealed. Reports also said that Higgins was quite smitten with the 25-year-old Alaska Airlines flight attendant since the beginning of "The Bachelor" Season 20. And during the midseason, insiders said that it became clear to the other contestants he was going to choose Bushnell in the end.
Aside from Ben Higgins being reportedly engaged to Laura Bushnell, Reality Steve has also revealed that fans will get to see some familiar faces including Becca Tilley and Amber James, who both appeared on Chris Soules' season last year. Tilley made it all the way to the finale while James was eliminated during the third episode.
Meanwhile, Ben Higgins and Laura Bushnell's engagement was not really a surprise. Wetpaint even noted that based on Bushnell's background, age and career path, she appeared to be just as flexible about her future as Higgins pledged to be. Thus, the newly-engaged couple clicked. And apart from being Higgins' reported fiancé, Bushnell also shares friendship with former "Bachelorette" winner and Josh Murray's ex-girlfriend, Anna Von Staehl, Heavy noted.
While it was Laura Bushnell who eventually won Ben Higgins' heart in "The Bachelor" Season 20 finale result episode, other names of the women who competed were also revealed.
