HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Chris Harrison promises fans won't be disappointed with the upcoming season of The Bachelorette starring Ali Fedotowsky.
"There is a phenomenal ending," the show's host told Us Weekly over the weekend. "Whether it's happy or not – I'll say this: Ali had to make a very tough choice at the end, several tough choices, and I think she's satisfied with how it ends and satisfied with her choice."
The San Francisco advertising account manager was a front-runner for Bachelor Jake Pavelka's heart. However, she famously left the show when presented with an ultimatum to return to work or risk losing her job. Harrison says Fedotowsky has a lot of insecurities when it comes to love.
"Ali [is] a girl that has in the past been hurt before," he explains. "The more I got to to know her, the more I realize she's this strong, independent, beautiful woman, but very vulnerable."
"She really had this fear of almost being rejected," Harrison continued. "Like, 'Yes, I'm going to fall in love, but I'm really worried that I'm not going to get love back.'...Everyone has their kind of bones in the closet that they have to deal with. Hers was 'I'm going to put myself out there. I really think I'm going to fall in love, but are these guys going to love me back?'"
The new season of The Bachelorette premieres May 24 on ABC.
