Season 16 of 'The Bachelorette' has just concluded. Zac Clark and Tayshia Adams ended up getting engaged on the show. All those shots of Tayshia crying in the desert were one of the ways to throw off the audience for a second. Showrunners were fueling the rumors that were set abuzz by Reality Steve that Tayshia doesn't end up getting a proposal on the show.

However, all that is behind us now and we now know she was crying with joy as Zac went down on a knee, Neil Lane diamond ring in his hand, and proposed marriage to her. But that's not enough for fans. It's been some time since the season wrapped up filming and Bachelor Nation fans need fresher updates on this couple.

In the past, they've relied on the After the Final Rose special that airs after the finale. However, this time around it didn't and fans are going in a tizzy. Here we tell you the unfortunate reason why it's not airing. 

The franchise's host Chris Harrison has come through one more time, giving fans the answers that they need. "It pains me there’s no AFR live special this #TheBachelorette season," he wrote on his Twitter handle. "Due to being pushed into the holidays and the difficulty of bringing people safely together during this time it just wasn’t possible. But hopefully, we’ll be back for #TheBachelor," he said.

Fans are coming up with a number of theories after this announcement was made, and some of them are of the belief that maybe it's because the couple is no longer together. "Countless other shows have done virtual Tell Alls very successfully. Is it maybe because Tayshia and Zach are no longer together??," wrote one fan. "Why not a ZOOM After? Doesn't have to be in person. That was the best finale ever!!!!! People want to see more," tweeted another.

"Not even an update... virtually?? Are they even still together? Oh, the questions??" read another tweet. "Soooo my guess is that b/c Tayshia & Zac haven’t posted anything on social media now that the finale aired they aren’t together anymore & things may have ended on bad terms & that’s why we did not have an After the Final Rose Ceremony #AFR" wrote another.
