Joey Graziadei meets Charity's mother

Charity introduces Joey Graziadei to her family in the promo clip. "I’m really excited to meet Charity’s family. I know that her family’s opinion means the world to her. The only thing I can do is kind of mess it up," he says.

"I want to start off by saying my feelings for Charity are very real, and I’ve obviously told her now that I’m in love with her, and that means a lot to me," he says as he sits down with her mother.

"If there’s anything you need to know more as a mom, because I know from your side how scary this can be," he further says.

It's a pivotal week in Fiji in 'The Bachelorette' season finale as Charity's search to find forever love concludes. Three guys are fighting for her heart -- software salesman Aaron Bryant, integrative medicine consultant Dotun Olubeko, and tennis star Joey, and she must choose who will meet her family at a stressful rose ceremony.

Charity seeks advice from her family about a decision that would change her life forever as she is torn between two men with whom she envisions a future.
