BACHELOR: Conference Call with Ashley Hebert!

During tonight's episode of The Bachelor: Women Tell All, Ashley Hebert confronts Brad about why she was sent home. During a conference call interview earlier this week, Ashley talks about her experiences on being on The Bachelor and if she would be the next Bachelorette.
On your fantasy date night (in South Africa), what did you guys talk about other than mosquito nets that we didn't get to see during your time there?
Ashley Hebert: Oh gosh. Brad and I talked about a lot of things. You know, I feel like we should have talked about the important questions that we touched upon at dinner, but we just continued on with a really fun, light relationship and I think that's where things went wrong. We had the opportunity to kind of talk about the more serious things and I - we both opted to take the light route; the light way out again. And you know we didn't - we didn't - I didn't answer all the questions like he needed. He didn't answer all the questions that I had, so I think in the end, we ran out of time and that night was just the demise of our relationship.
Did you respect that Brad didn't put you through the rose ceremony and let you go before you had to go through that?
Ashley Hebert: Oh respect; oh absolutely, yes. I think that, especially after watching it and hearing all the things he said about, you know, pulling me aside instead of not giving me the rose. I have a whole new respect for him. You know, I left, you know, really heartbroken, but after seeing that, I think it kind of helped me put a little bit of closure and solidified what kind of relationship we had, which was like a very - one that was full of respect and you know mutual admiration. So I'd have to say that, you know, that made things a lot easier for me to hear him say that.
If Brad had offered you a rose that night, would you have accepted it and do you think you could have gotten your relationship back on track?
Ashley Hebert: I don't - I think at that point I had a lot of questions about our relationship as well. Looking back, if I were to go back, knowing what I know now, I would have certainly accepted it, but in that point in time I had so many questions, I think - I don't know that I wouldn't have accepted it, but I think we would've had to have a very good conversation before I would have accepted it.
Would you consider being the next Bachelorette if given the opportunity, or if now, maybe participating in the second season of Bachelor Pad?
Ashley Hebert: Oh gosh. Yes, I'm - I don't think I would be as happy about Bachelor Pad, but if they asked me to do the Bachelorette, I would definitely consider it. I feel like the process worked for me once and I would be so excited to do it, but Bachelor Pad, I don't - I'd have to really think about it.
Who do you think is the best match for Brad?
Ashley Hebert: You know it changes. It changes from week to week. I thought Chantal O. until last episode and now I'm a little bit more apt to say that he's falling in love with Emily. So in terms of what I think Brad wants out of life and in a relationship, I think Emily's probably a better match, but I love him and Chantal together. I love the way they complement each other well and they bring out kind of like this playfulness that I really like to see. So I guess it changes from week to week.
Tune in tonight for THE BACHELOR WOMEN TELL ALL!
Bachelor: The Women Tell All and Chantel O'Brien's New Boyfriend
BACHELOR SPOILER ALERT
If you believe Bachelor Blogger Reality Steve (and sometimes his facts aren't accurate), Brad Womack is engaged to Emily Maynard and Chantal O'Brien has a new boyfriend named Jeff Razore. He says that Ashley Hebert will be the next Bachelorette and perhaps the announcement will come later tonight after The Bachelor, Women Tell All episode. It is rumored that Chantal was initially chosen to be the Bachelorette but she backed out after meeting her new boyfriend.
Watch the Bachelor Women Tell All Preview here!
Bachelor Brad "It's Been Hard to Keep it a Secret"
Brad Womack admits that he made his final choice early on in the process.
But his woman hasn't been thrilled watching Brad kiss other women. Womack tells People Magazine, "Every Monday night since Jan. 3 has not been a good night at my house... Do I think this woman is the one? Damn right I do," he says. "I probably shouldn't say this but my heart was in a specific place pretty early on. I'm in love.....There's strength there and a real relationship," he says. "She's tough. We have our ups and downs but we're fighting through and making it work."
IS BRAD WOMACK ENGAGED TO EMILY MAYNARD OR CHANTAL O'BRIEN?

Brad Womack Predicts who will be Next Bachelorette "Fang Girl"
"I think Madison Garton would be great...I just think she has that personality," Brad Womack tells the Insider in this new VIDEO, "I don't think she'd do it in a million years."
Also in the running for next Bachelorette... Ashley Hebert and Shawntel Newton!
If they ask me, I'd be so excited. I would definitely do it, 100%, no question," Ashley Hebert confidently told "The Insider" at the taping of "The Bachelor: Women Tell All." "I feel like I know how to navigate the system now. I know how to ask the right questions."
Shawntel Newton thinks it's a good idea to "recycle" former contestants as the prime "Bachelorette" to be able to offer a true sense of empathy with the pursuers. "If they asked me to be the next 'Bachelorette,' I'd probably do it," she asserted.
If Madison Garton (aka Fang Girl) was the next Bachelorette, would you watch the show?
NEW Interview with the Bachelor's Ashley Hebert!
Full interview can be found here!
Reality Wanted: Watching the show was really frustrating because Brad just kept wanting you to say you wanted to get married and have kids.
Ashley Hebert: I think there was a lot of miscommunication. I feel like I'm at an age where I'm ready to settle down but I really think it was a lack of communication. I have to admit that, throughout the whole process, I went in and didn't expect to feel as strongly as I did. I guarded myself and I definitely learned a lot from that.
You obviously spent a lot of time with Chantal and Emily. Who do you think is the best match for Brad?
Ashley: You know, it changes from week to week. I thought Chantal until the last episode. Now, I'm a little bit more apt to say that he's falling in love with Emily. In terms of what I think Brad wants out of life and a relationship, I think he and Emily are a good match but I love him and Chantal together! They have this playfulness that I really like to see?
BACHELOR: Interview with Chris Harrison!

Chris Harrison answers your burning Bachelor questions...
So have you chosen the Bachelorette?
Chris Harrison: Well maybe, maybe not. I know a lot of people think that she’s already chosen and every year that it’s already sealed, but for us, we really want to know what the fans think and see what the reaction is at the end of this and see how it plays out. There’s really no reason for us to paint ourselves into a corner if we don’t have to. We’re in production for a while so why not wait and see what the fallout is from this Bachelor or maybe we meet somebody who everyone just falls in love with. There’s really no reason to nail it down yet.

The Bachelor: Women Tell All!
Bachelor Women Tell All airing March 7, 2011!
Get ready for the The Bachelor Women Tell All! The women including Alli, Ashley H., Ashley S., Britt, Jackie, Madison, Melissa, Michelle and Raichel -- return to confront each other and Brad Womack! Crazy Michelle Money returns and comes under fire from the other women. A devastated Ashley H. admits she still has regrets about her last date with Brad, but what has she learned from her experience? And will Ashley S. find the closure she never got from the Bachelor after her disastrous two-on-one date?
The Hot Seat:
Chris Harrison brings Melissa, Michelle, Ashley S. and Ashley H. to the HOT SEAT!
Apparently, Michelle breaks down at the show when the women call her two-faced and think she is not a good mother. A tearful Michelle admits that her behavior is a defense mechanism and that she feels guilty for leaving her daughter. She claims that she really came on the show to find love for both her and her daughter. Watch for Michelle to get really hysterical and break down crying!
The Melissa/Raichel Feud:
Nothing has changed between Melissa and Raichel since their explosive fight at the beginning of the series. They really go at each other, as Melissa tries to explain herself and Raichel immediately reverts to calling her "poisonous" and "toxic," blaming her for ruining her chances with Brad. But the other women jump in and point to errors both women made, in an effort to calm them.
Ashley Hebert takes the hot seat:
When a distraught Ashley H. takes the hot seat, she admits that she didn't really hear Brad when he tried to tell her how he felt about her the whole time, and that her retracting from him in the end was a way of protecting herself. Was she truly in love with Brad? This was an eye-opening experience for Ashley H., and she reveals how she has changed because of it.
Ashley Spivey takes the hot seat:
Ashley discusses the impact her past bad relationships have had on her and why she was hopeful in dating Brad and getting the "first impression" rose. Her optimism turned to despair when Brad rejected her in Las Vegas, telling her she wasn't the woman he saw as his wife.
Brad says he's happy and in love!
The Bachelor reveals that he is happier than at any other time in his life. This woman has changed his life, and he has fallen in love with her more and more each day.

The Bachelor Finale!
Brad Womack is down to two ladies: fun-loving Executive Assistant, Chantal O'Brien and Southern Belle single mom, Emily Maynard. In the Bachelor finale, airing in two weeks, the women meet Brad's family in Cape Town, South Africa.
WHO IS BRAD WOMACK'S FAMILY?
Chad Womack: Brad's twin brother and business partne. Married to Dillon Womack.
Wes Womack: Brother. Married
Pam: Brad Womack's Mom
Will Brad Proposal be as romantic as Chad's proposal to his wife, Dillion?
How Brad's twin brother Chad proposed to wife, Dillion:
"Beginning at Hotel San Jose to celebrate their anniversary, Chad told Dillon he wanted her to have everything new for their special night out. A day of shopping and intimate time together led into the evening. Dressed beautifully in new clothes from head to toe, Dillon is escorted by Chad to the “special place” they have reservations at for wine preceding dinner. Familiar territory surrounds them as they pull up to their home. Ecstatic but completely unaware of what lie ahead, Dillon enters the couples home. Surrounding her is a candle lit home with rose petals lining every inch of the floor. Dillon begins to cry at the sight of such a beautiful presentation and the thought of such a loving gesture. She walks further into the house to find a table lined with every card she had every given Chad. She turns to see his eyes filled with tears as he begins to tell her how important each word she has ever said to him means. They walk to kitchen where there are photographs of the couple spread across the bar. Chad tells Dillon that he loves her with all of his heart and wants nothing more to spend their lives together."
Remember when DeAnna and Jenni met Brad's family the first time? Here is a look back.
Brad Womack's Ex Lashes Out!
According to Eonline, Brad Womack's Ex, Laurel Kagay, says "his TV persona isn't quite what he's like in real real life." "When you first meet Brad, anybody falls in love with him because he
is the sweetest guy," Kagay said in an exclusive interview with E! News.
"If you really know him, that's not how he stays...He's the type of guy who will go to therapy for a few weeks and
think everything is fixed and he's changed and he's wonderful—and then
it just goes back," she said. Read the full story here!
Chris Harrison: We Do Not Have a Bachelorette Picked

In this NEW interview with TV Guide, Chris Harrison talks about whether Ashley Hebert is the next Bachelorette.
Is Ashley H the next Bachelorette?
Chris Harrison: There will be a Bachelorette announcement very soon, but it will not be announced at the Women Tell All. It might be announced on After the Final Rose, but I can promise you as of Sunday night I was with the creator of the show, Mike Fleiss, and when I left him in the wee hours of the morning we did not have a Bachelorette picked. We don't make a decision right away because we really leave a lot up to our fans and viewers. Immediately after Ashley S's exit, everyone was clamoring for her, but maybe that will die down, so let's wait and see. Ashley H can easily be our Bachelorette and she's a contender, but it has not been decided. We're constantly going back and forth and the front-runners change 10 times. We play the show out and honestly I can see a show with Ashley S, Ashley H — I can see a show now with Michelle. You got to wait to see the Women Tell All. If we came out and said Ashley H is our Bachelorette and America's like we really want Michelle, well why would we have done that to ourselves?

through it and hope to move forward," she says. "I just have to not
watch the episode."

Chris Harrison Tells Fans: Don't Believe Bachelor Spoilers!
Chris Harrison says don't believe all those Bachelor spoilers. Brad is indeed happy. "We just taped the 'Women Tell All' yesterday ... and he is in love and is happy as can be. He is so happy that he came back and did this again." Harrison says.
Chris Harrison Bachelor Blog: "The Women Tell All will be Surprising"

Chris Harrison talks about what went wrong on Ashley's Date:
The final date of the week went to Ashley. Who would have thought that Ashley would be afraid of helicopters? This is The Bachelor! She was pretty quick to come around and hop in, but this helicopter ride was a little different. Brad’s side of the chopper didn’t have a door, so he was just about hanging on the outside. When they landed at God’s Window in Nelspruit, the name spoke for itself. Views like this just don’t exist anywhere else. During the aerial tour of the bush, they even got to see something really rare: a pack of wild horses running through a clearing. While this was going on, back at base camp, an angry hyena tore through one of our coolers with its teeth and drank a lot of our water. Of course, we held off on dinner for Brad and Ashley for a while until we were sure the coast was clear. Maybe this was a sign, as this was a very emotional date for Brad and Ashley, and I think their up-and-down relationship was starting to wear on Brad. It’s a little close to the end to keep “retracting,” to use Ashley’s words....
I have so much more to say about Ashley, her exit and her relationship with Brad, but I’m going to hold off until next week. Next Monday night, all of your favorite bachelorettes from this season will be back to talk about everything you did see and some things you didn’t on The Women Tell All. "

What Brad says about his overnight dates:
"I'd like to explain why overnight dates are so important and what I used those nights away from the cameras for. I wanted to take the opportunity with all three of the women to talk, off camera, so we could all feel even more comfortable. By this time, I had gotten to know the women so very well and I wanted to feel confident in the fact that, after talking with each of them all night, I knew exactly what type of woman each of them is. I wanted to be confident that I actually knew these women as well as I thought I did. The overnight dates actually gave me quite a bit of clarity – clarity that I had been looking for!"
Brad on sending Ashley Hebert home:
"Saying goodbye to Ashley was extremely difficult. Everyone knows what a connection Ashley and I had that started from day one. I remember watching her drive away – I was so sad. I didn't think I had made a mistake. I was just riddled with questions in my mind. What happened along the way to our relationship? Could I have done something differently? Does Ashley know how much I care about her as a person? It was like I was watching a lifelong friend drive away, not knowing if I would ever see her again."
