Ever since Brad Womack proposed to Emily Maynard on the season finale of The Bachelor, people everywhere have been trying to pick apart their relationship and start rumors. The tabloids have been especially harsh, saying that Emily is just using Brad and that she’s only planning to move to Austin to please her fans. People just can’t seem to accept that Brad and Emily are still together.
People seem to forget that Emily Maynard was not a celebrity before The Bachelor…she was just a mom trying to provide a great life for her daughter, Ricki. Starring on a reality show definitely puts you into the public eye, but why are people trying so hard to find something wrong with Emily? And why are they saying that going on The Bachelor makes her a bad parent? She’s a great mom who deserves love in her life…leave her alone already!!
Why do people find it so hard to believe that Brad Womack and Emily Maynard fell in love? Why must everyone question whether their engagement is “real?” Whether they are 100% head over heels for each other or still trying to see if they are a perfect fit, they at least deserve the chance to figure things out without being subject to stupid attacks by people who don’t have any idea what they’re talking about.
I was rooting for Team Emily from the start of The Bachelor, and I’m still cheering her on, whether she and Brad make it to the altar or not.
