The Bachelor 29: Will Grant Ellis Give Runner Up Litia Garr Another Shot?

What Happened Between Grant & Litia?

"It Was Going To Be Us"

Litia walked into the final rose ceremony with confidence. Earlier, she had looked right into the camera and expressed certainty that she and Grant would be getting engaged soon. She was completely blindsided when Grant dumped her. During The Bachelor season 29 finale, Litia told host Jesse Palmer that Grant misled her. “Grant and I had talked a lot about that day, and everything that he had ever said about it was that it was going to be us,” Litia said. She also claimed he said he wanted to end the season early because he knew she was the one.

Litia told Jesse that Grant reassured her constantly that she was going to get his final rose. The night before the final rose ceremony, Litia says that she told Grant, "I can't believe we're getting engaged tomorrow," to which he responded in the affirmative. Grant didn't refute any of Litia's claims at the time. After The Bachelor season 29 finale, he responded to her allegations in an exclusive with Us Weekly. In the interview, he said that he didn't agree with Litia's take on what happened.

Grant Just Ended Things With Juliana

Their Three-Month Engagement Came To An End

Grant and Juliana’s breakup, announced on June 13, 2025, wasn't much of a surprise. It came after Grant hadn’t posted about Juliana on Instagram for several long weeks prior, an unusual silence for a newly engaged couple. Their plans for a grand destination wedding in Italy and moving to Boston together seemed promising, but Juliana’s insistence on a second proposal, revealed on the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast, hinted at unresolved doubts about their commitment. These and other clues suggested their bond wasn’t on solid ground.

Litia Shouldn't Give Grant Another Shot

She Deserves A Man She Can Trust

Grant may be single, but Litia should never give him another chance after their journey on The Bachelor. Grant’s indecision, professing love to both Litia and Juliana before choosing Juliana, left Litia heartbroken and publicly humiliated. Her confrontation during the finale, accusing him of leading her on, revealed a breach of trust that’s hard to mend. Litia’s poised exit and subsequent focus on self-empowerment, evident in her confident social media presence, show she’s thriving independently. Reopening old wounds risks undermining her growth, and she deserves a partner fully committed from the start.

The Bachelor seasons 1-29 can be streamed on Hulu.
