MeeVee Interview: Five Questions with Bachelor Prince Lorenzo Borghese

Did your experience on The Bachelor meet your expectations?
I can say that it did meet my expectations.  The only negative thing was that a lot of peoples’ emotions get involved, and it was harder than I thought to say goodbye to some of these girls.  How much they invested in me emotionally - that was what I was really surprised about.

What else surprised you?
I didn’t know about all of the backstabbing elements that were going on, and that the girls were fighting.  To me, that was a surprise.  I didn’t see it.  I didn’t hang out at the girls’ house, and when I was out on dates, I guess this stuff was happening.  I was surprised with how they were interacting with each other.

What about the situation with Lisa?  Were you at all aware of her timeline before the hometown date?
I had no idea she had a timeline until the hometown date.  I was sort of surprised, because I had such a great time with her, and she seemed so laid back.  I thought she was there just for me.  Then she pulled out the wedding dress and the wedding magazines, and she’s telling me she has a timeline. There were all these things that I learned about our hometown and our overnight dates, and I had no idea that Lisa had plans.  That’s why I got a little shocked. I felt like I didn’t know who she was.
