In the March 10 finale of The Bachelor, Chris Soules picked Whitney Bischoff and proposed to her. Not only did Soules and Bischoff find each other, they’ve also found fame as the latest couple to fall in love on national TV. Speaking with the Associated Press, the couple said that the experience of finding your soul mate in a reality show may not be normal, but they said that they’re making it as normal as possible for themselves. They’re looking forward to a lot of stuff, mainly their upcoming wedding as well as all the commitments that come with being The Bachelor contestants.
Watching the finale, it’s pretty clear why Bischoff said yes to Soules. The farmer proposed to Bischoff in a barn at the home where he grew up in. And if you’re thinking that a barn proposal isn’t romantic, think again. With the romantic lighting as well as the stunning engagement ring, it was a proposal to remember. However, Soules did admit that he was torn between Bischoff and 26-year-old chiropractic assistant, Becca Tilley. At least until the final moments. Tilley revealed in several interviews that she didn’t really fall in love with Soules because they were never able to spend a lot of time together during the show.

So it looks like Soules made the right decision by picking Bischoff. He also made the right choice with the ring that he gave her. The ring, a massive emerald-cut Neil Lane engagement ring, looked absolutely beautiful. The platinum and diamond ring reportedly weighs four carats and features an emerald-cut center stone. The stone is surrounded by a halo made up of round diamonds.
The extremely detailed ring reportedly costs just under $100,000, so if you’re planning on proposing to your loved one with a ring like that, it’s best you start saving your money.
