The finale results are...
Ben is engaged to LAUREN B!
Speculation for the next Bachelorette:
They will most likely choose Amanda or Caila because the vast majority of Bachelorettes have finished 3rd or 4th. Runner-ups are usually ruled out because filming takes place so quicly after the airing of the Fianl Rose, in which they are usually "still heartbroken" about not being chosen and still having feelings for the person who didn't choose them. Caila would be the youngest Bachelorette and may come across annoying in her edit, while Amanda has 2 young children, and it may not make her look too good for leaving them at home for another several months to do another show. It will be interesting to see what happens.
