With Rachel entering hometowns, it looks like she will be meeting with Tino's, Zach's and Aven's families, before moving into fantasy suites and then making the all-important decision of who she wants to spend the rest of her life with. But it looks like fans might not have to wait that long for the whole drama to play out, seeing that blogger Reality Steve, who is known for his fairly accurate spoilers, has broken down what might happen to Rachel's journey and what fans can expect from the upcoming season.



 

What happens to Rachel and Zach?

It looks like in Season 19, Zach places third in Rachel's line-up. As seen in the promos, Jesse asks Zach to come clean about an issue with Rachel. Although we are currently unaware of what this might be, Reality Steve suspects that it is either something he did or something that possibly transpired during the show. The speculation, for now, is that Zach is either asked to leave or self eliminates.



 

What happens to Aven?

With Zach out of the picture, Aven becomes the 1st runner-up of the season for Rachel. While the two have been a good match this season, going up against Tino is no easy feat, seeing that Rachel has been gunning for Tino right since the start of the season and vice versa. 



 

What happens to Rachel and Tino?

Winning Season 19 and Rachel's heart is Tino, who is currently engaged to Rachel. Tino bagged the first impression rose from her at the start of the season and while he's been Team Rachel right from the get-go, Rachel has not been shy about just how into him she has been all season. 



 

What do you think? Has Rachel made the right choice? If not, who do you think would have made a better match for her? Sound off in the comments below.
