BACHELORETTE Katie Thurston is tipped to choose Blake Moynes as her fiance after she gushed she was “in love.”
The bank marketing manager, 30, took to her Instagram page to post a sultry selfie with the caption: “I’m in love,” alongside a bear Emoji icon.
In this coming Monday’s episode, Katie meets each of the remaining contestant’s families for the Hometown Dates before she gives out her final rose during The Bachelorette‘s season finale on Monday, August 9.
The brunette’s teasing post came as fans flooded to speculate her lucky man is in fact wildlife manager Blake.
One quickly wrote: “Blake loves you too,” as the second retorted: “With Blake.”
A third then bluntly suggested: “It’s Blake,” while another assumed this was the case and wrote: “How’s Blake? Are you going to move to Canada?”
Another gushed: “I hope with Blake. I been loving your season. Congratulations!!!”
One Bachelorette fan then posted: “Oh good, that’s a relief.
“Can’t remember the last time the Bachelorette actually ended in an actual relationship, which is essentially the whole point of the show.”
HOMETOWN HONEY
This weekend, an explosive show preview revealed both Katie and Greg Grippo storming off set as she wailed: “I need to go home.”
The promo shows Katie visiting the hometowns of Greg, Blake Moynes, and Justin Glaze, which turned out to be an emotional visit for all.
Blake and Justin expressed their strong feelings for Katie behind the scenes as their families encouraged them to tell her.
While Greg ended up in tears multiple times throughout the episode revealing that he’s “falling so hard for Katie.”
The clip then shows a “confused” Greg as he questions how Katie feels about him.
“I don’t know what she’s thinking, but something isn’t right,” he said.
Cameras then followed Greg as he emotionally stormed off set.
After talking to host Tayshia Adams, Katie reached her breaking point as she contemplated her feelings for each of the men.
The 30-year-old walked away from cameras yelling “I am done, I am done, I am done” as she retreated to her room.
When host Kaitlyn Bristowe attempted to console the reality star, Katie is heard saying behind closed doors: “I just feel like I went through this whole time telling myself it’ll be worth it and all of a sudden it’s like blowing up in my face.”
Kaitlyn proceeded to ask the star: “So what do you want to happen?,” in which Katie bluntly responded: “I want someone to book my flight home.”
It’s been a difficult journey for Katie who previously regretted her decision to send Andrew Spencer packing in a recent episode.
Katie eliminated the footballer in an emotional scene that had her chasing him down a hotel hallway to ask him to stay.
After eliminating Andrew at the rose ceremony, Katie asked to walk him out and quickly began to sob as she admitted to having “such strong feelings” for the Minnesota native but had “deeper connections” with the other men.
