Bachelor Ben Higgins Proposes Again to Winner During After the Final Rose

Cue the awwws! Bachelor Ben Higgins proposed again to his fiancée, Lauren Bushnell, during ABC’s After the Final Rose special on Monday, March 14. 

“When I did this the first time, I had to call your dad on the phone. I didn’t get to do it the way I would have liked to. Your family is here. I’d like to bring them out,” Higgins told a surprised Bushnell before getting down on one knee again. “That day was a day that I meant every word I said … You have continued to support me and love me and keep me smiling in some of the weirdest and hardest situations,” he told his bride-to-be. “I meant it on that day… but will you marry me once again?”

The season 20 hunk, 26, popped the question to his 25-year-old bride during the March 14 finale. As previously reported by Us Weekly, Higgins proposed with a stunning $100,000 Neil Lane–designed diamond ring.

Their engagement comes after Higgins famously told both Bushnell and finalist JoJo Fletcher that he loved them. According to a source, watching her now-fiancé disclose his love for both of them was hard on Bushnell.

“Ben had told [Lauren] about [his I love yous], but seeing it is a lot harder than hearing it,” the insider previously told Us, adding that Bushnell was both “angry and sad.”
