Graham Bunn after the Bachelorette DeAnna show interview

Posted on Jun 28, 2008 by CHESSNOID in Bachelorette, Deanna Pappas, Entertainment | 3 Comments

You know I was getting alot of referral hits for my bachelorette posts. I think there are just a lot of fans like myself who want to know who the final person will be and if DeAnna eventually gets married to him. The last time that happened was with Trista and Ryan. OK, the only it happened. ;)

I checked out this referral source called Wikio and signed up for it as well. I really haven’t read up on it to see how it works. It does have a voting feature but that is all I can tell for now. Anyways, while at the site I found this ET article on a Graham Bunn interview. I have a little more respect and understanding about where he is coming from.

“I don’t believe that we were right for each other,” he says, adding later: “I just don’t think that it would ever be healthy for she and I to be friends.”

All or nothing: Graham explains that his inability to know with total conviction whether or not he could love DeAnna likely led to his downfall on the show. One thing he did know, for sure, was that he didn’t want to mislead the bachelorette by sugar-coating his wishy-washy feelings about a committed relationship with her.

“I don’t think it was a good fit for marriage,” he says. “She wanted me to get to a place that I couldn’t get to in the time-frame [we were given].”

So, with only three suitors left — Jason, Jeremy and Jesse — does Graham agree with fellow oustee Twilley’s assessment that Jesse is the right choice for DeAnna?

“I believe Jason and Jeremy would make better partners to spend the rest of her life with,” he says, adding to those surprised by Twilley’s pick that no, Jesse’s finer qualities were not in fact left on the cutting room floor: “I don’t think you’re missing anything in the [the show's] edit of Jesse. I think you might be missing something of the edit of DeAnna.”

“I feel, personally, that Jason offers her the best well-rounded choice and someone that can fully fulfill, you know, all her needs and wants in life.”

Graham admits that leaving the show was difficult for both him and DeAnna, but he believes that his brutal honesty about his feelings for her will guarantee them both a happier future, apart. He wishes her the best, though, regardless of who she winds up with.

“She is a wonderful person and, you know, you could do worse with me,” he says. “I’m not the devil.”

I don’t think anyone could really think Graham was a bad guy. I think his edit on the show was never actually bad. You could see the chemistry those two definitely had. I think under normal circumstances, they may even had a great relationship. If you haven’t figured out who the final two are, check out my spoiler prediction with pictures.

There is another great article with more of a question and answer setup. Here is a quick example below:

What did you think when she said she was falling in love with you?
Um, it was a little painful. I felt like I had hurt her, and that’s something that you never want to do with anyone, let alone someone who you spent the past few weeks with.

Were you falling for her?
I was not falling in love with her, no. But I did have strong feelings for her.

Here is the link to the full interview at NYMAG.  I can’t wait for Monday with the “men tell all” episode.  I look forward to watching it and sad for the next guy eliminated. The last 3 gentleman all seem cool.

    Ah, I thought it was odd how he was acting. Blame it on the edit. This explains a lot and confirms what I suspected – he just wasn’t that into her (as she was to him).

    It’s difficult to be into any woman who goes on national TV saying that she has strong feelings for five men or more. I don’t blame Graham or anyone else on the show if they decided to ditch her if she were to have the most feelings for any specific one of them, in this case, Graham.
