Will DeAnna Pappas muck up the ending of "The Bachelor?" The bikini clad former Bachelorette may not have to. There have been more than a few reports about a switch by Jason Mesnick (aka 'the Bachelor') involving Melissa Rycroft and Molly Malaney. First let's deal with the saucy DeAnna, as she butted into this season. According to a report from celebrity magazine In Touch gives an insider look from a contestant on the show and details that Molly and Melissa still had to deal with one more major competitor in the form of DeAnna Pappas, the woman who broke Jason’s heart by turning down his marriage proposal on the July 7 finale of The Bachelorette.


The report adds that recently, the newly single DeAnna flew down to New Zealand, where Jason, Molly, Melissa and Jillian had traveled to film the final episodes of the Bachelor. Former contestant Jillian, the season’s third runner up, tells Life & Style it was a move that threw the other ladies off their game, but seemed genuine.

“I think DeAnna really cared for him, just like I did,” Jillian says. In the end, however, he opened his heart to a new love - who will finally be revealed on the show’s shocking finale. “What I do know,” Jillian says, “is that he will find the life he intended on finding.”
