Bachelorette 2014 Spoilers: Eric Hill – The Scene That Went Wrong!
| June 3, 2014 at 10:30 AM EDTI don’t know about any of you out there, but I struggled making it through the episode last night on The Bachelorette 2014 because I knew where it was going and I knew I would not like the ending. Eric Hill, one of the men on The Bachelorette Season 10, had a tragic accident after he finished taping the show and it took his life. ABC decided to go on with the season and dedicated it to Eric Hill and his life. Smart move or terrible idea? Eric Hill’s time on the show came to an end last night and it ended with some major fireworks between him and The Bachelorette Andi Dorfman. Check out the details below in our Bachelorette 2014 spoilers!
Earlier in the episode, we saw Eric and Andi talk at the after party for the group date. They both agreed that their relationship started so strong with the first one-on-one date of the season, but then they never progressed from there. She felt he was not opening up to her and just sharing his stories of his world travels (I guess the Syria story and writing a goodbye letter to his parents was not opening up). He proceeded to talk about his family some more and how much they meant to him. (Side note: I could not imagine being his family and watching that moment, if they were even watching. It was hard for me to watch.)
So, this moment on The Bachelorette 2014 left Andi feeling better about things between them and relit that flame. However, it did not work for Eric. At the Cocktail Party, he confronted Andi about his feelings and that she seems to be closed off and not opening up to him (the opposite of how she feels). He went on to say that she had a poker face and called her a TV actress and was doing this for the cameras and he wanted to know the real Andi!
To be honest, some of what he said shocked me! However, he was coming from a good place and I don’t think he had any intentions of wanting to hurt her. He truly was trying to talk out his issues and get to know her more, but he used some poor choices of words at times and the whole situation spiraled out of hand. They both agreed it would be best if he left the show and it would never work out for the two of them.
In his final scene, I about lost it! We saw him getting into the taxi and hearing his final words of The Bachelorette 2014: “Love is the most important thing in my entire life. It is the reason to live. Love leads to family, and those two together are what life is all about. I feel more ready than I’ve ever felt before.”
And we see the final scenes of what appeared to be an amazing man. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends and he will truly be missed.
