HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Unlike the previous season, a marriage proposal actually happened on last night's season finale of ABC's "The Bachelor: London Calling."
Getting down on one knee, Matt Grant proposed to Shayne Lamas in what may or may not have been the "most dramatic" ceremony in "Bachelor" history. On last season's finale, "Bachelor" Brad Womack rejected both finalists.
Grant, 27, a global financier from England, chose the 22-year-old actress over Chelsea, a pharmaceutical sales representative from Durango, CO. She is the daughter of actor Lorenzo Lamas.
"It was a fairytale proposal like I've always dreamed about. I forgot that there [were] cameras around. In that moment, it was just Matt and I and it was the most amazing moment of my entire life," she told People magazine.
"It [was] a beautiful setting, a beautiful day. Shayne [looked] absolutely exquisite," added Grant, who presented his future bride with a 2.85-carat Tacori platinum and diamond eternity ring.
The couple has yet to set a wedding date, admitting they want to take their time and get reacquainted after not being able to see each other for several months while the show aired.
"There's still a lot of growing to do in our relationship," said Lamas. "We will not tie the knot until I am mentally and physically prepared as well as Matt."
