One couple splits before The Bachelor Winter Games finale, but they end up getting engaged during the reunion show.
Last week, the Bachelor Winter Games contestants got together in Los Angeles to tape a reunion show that will air after the finale on Thursday, February 22. The couple who got engaged last week weren’t together during the finale, making this week’s after-show must see TV.
Once word got out about an engagement, there were numerous rumors that pointed to Dean Unglert and Lesley Murphy getting engaged on the reunion show. However, the contestants who got engaged last week didn’t leave the show as a couple. Can’t wait to find out who it is? Here’s the scoop!
Proposal is unexpected — for fans, at least!
A photo of a diamond ring (below) on the official Bachelor Winter Games Twitter account tipped viewers off about the proposal. It didn’t take long for fans figure out that the hand in the photo below belongs to contestant Clare Crawley.
However, spoilers point to Clare leaving during Tuesday’s show (Feb. 20) after refusing to take part in a kissing contest with Christian.
Keep in mind, she rejected Benoit last week, so it sounds a little unbelievable that she got engaged on the after-show.

The Bachelor Winter Games was filmed two months ago. According to Reality Steve, Benoit contacted Clare in late December after she eliminated herself from the show.
Apparently, she had a change of heart for Benoit, who appeared on the Bachelorette Canada.
Steve goes on to say that Chris Harrison called Clare up on stage during the reunion taping. She confirmed that she was in love with Benoit — he came up on stage and proposed.
“They’ve been together for a couple months now. Benoit proposed to Claire, and she said yes.”
Maybe she had regrets after she told him she didn’t have the same feelings for him last week?
We are happy for Clare — let’s hope it works out for her.
Watch the Bachelor Winter Games on Tuesday, February 20, followed by the finale and reunion on Thursday, February 22 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
