Midway through Monday’s three-hour finale, Kufrin broke up with her runner-up, Blake Horstmann, who was at a loss for words and broke down in tears. She then professed her love to Yrigoyen, who proceeded to get down on bended knee and slip a stunning Neil Lane ring on her finger.
“Since night one, I saw something in you. I felt something in you, so much so that you got that first rose. You got that first impression rose because right away I felt something so strong,” she told the medical sales representative. “I’ve been waiting to say it for the right person. I’ve been holding back because I wanted to be 1,000 percent certain. Garrett, I love you. I love you so much.”
