5 reasons Jenn Tran should pick Jonathon Johnson
SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA: In the seventh episode of 'The Bachelorette' Season 21, Jenn Tran had Hometown dates with her final four contestants. We think Jonathon Johnson should be her final choice, as he places great importance on his family's approval and appears to be very close to his mother. In the episode, Jenn wondered if Jonathan could express his feelings for her. After playing lacrosse, Jonathon mentioned he could "see something" between them but was hesitant to use the word "love" prematurely. This didn't comfort Jenn, who expressed concern about Jonathon's reluctance to fully embrace his feelings. Lisa advised Jonathan to be more open with Jenn, saying he wouldn't know the relationship's potential unless he fully expressed himself.
Jenn confided in Jonathon’s mom, Lisa, about her doubts, admitting it was hard to understand her feelings for Jonathon since he seemed to hold back. Lisa asked Jenn if she saw Jonathan as a real option, to which Jenn affirmed she wouldn't be there if she didn't. Jonathon wanted to seek clarity from his family before fully committing to Jenn. His sister-in-law reassured both of them, suggesting their relationship could be genuine, as she and Jonathan's sister Zach had quickly fallen in love and been married for four years. She believed that if it's the right person, timing is irrelevant. This conversation gave Jonathon the clarity he needed. He told Jenn he was "100%" on his way to falling for her. Jenn asked for more clarity, and Jonathon openly admitted he was falling for her. Jenn reciprocated, saying she was also falling for him.
