On The Bachelor, she went on a one-on-one date with Jake to Sea World where he surprised him with the arrival of her son Ethan. She also went on a two-on-one date with Jake and Kathryn but was eliminated on the fourth episode.
RealityTV World talked to Ella in a conference call and used as its headline the fact that Ella didn’t hate Vienna Girardi, the spoiler favorite to torture Jake for a few months before a “mutual” breakup.

“I liked her myself,” Ella said of Vienna, adding that she “loved” all the bachelorettes and stayed out of the drama.

YAWN.

And yet she did weigh in on some of Jake’s choices, including that she didn’t realize he had also sent Kathryn Sherlock home on that two-on-one date until she watched the episode.

Ella was also surprised to see that Jake sent home both Ashleigh Hunt and Jessie Sulidis — she was expecting Jessie, but not Ashleigh.

She was also expecting Corrie Adamson to be gone by now.

“But I thought he had a great connection with Ashleigh, so to see her go that early over (Corrie Adamson) — I love Corrie to death — but I didn’t think they had a connection that I had saw. So that was a big shock to me.”

Corrie

Ella thinks Corrie will be the next to go (no big shock, since that’s been in the spoiler cards all along) — leaving Vienna Girardi, Gia Allemand, Tenley Molzahn and Ali Fedotowsky to go on hometown dates.

“I don’t think that Corrie will be getting a hometown date,” said Ella. “I don’t think that they’ve spent enough time together for her to make it to that point. I think that it’s going to be Ali, Tenley, Gia and Vienna.”

Ella said she thinks Gia, Tenley and Ali are the best matches for Jake.

“I could see him with either of those women and it going somewhere,” Ella said. “As far as being able to grow old with one of them, I think that his best bet would probably be with Tenley.”

"He's incredible, and I'm entirely in love with him," says Nolan, who's planning a spring 2011 wedding to a soldier she's known for about a year.

She says she doesn't want to reveal his name because of his job with the military. He is stationed at Fort Bragg, Ky., and he is being deployed to Afghanistan soon.

"I thank God every day he has placed him in my life and the life of my son," says Nolan, who is divorced. "I am very, very blessed."

Nolan first met this love of her life when she was on a beach vacation last summer. They parted ways as friends, and she went on to do "The Bachelor," but he didn't watch it, she says.

"With him in the military, I just didn't know how things would work out," she says. "We decided to be friends, but we stayed in contact."

In the meantime, Nolan did "The Bachelor" and was ultimately rejected by Pavelka because he wasn't serious about being an instant father to her son. She shot "The Bachelor" during October and November 2009.

Once she returned home, Nolan dated other people but kept her ties to her soldier.

"We've been back together about two-and-a-half months," she says.

Their engagement came quickly in the scheme of things. They are planning to wed as soon as his deployment is over.

They aren't sure if the wedding will be in West Virginia (where he's from) or in Knoxville (where she lives) or at the beach (where they met). "We have to try and figure that out," Nolan says.

Since her time on "The Bachelor," Nolan has graduated from the Tennessee School of Beauty and did "Dancing with the Knoxville Stars," a benefit for East Tennessee Children's Hospital.

Isn't all this too soon after being on "The Bachelor" and professing feelings for Pavelka? No, she insists.

"I was never in love with Jake," she says. "I thought he was a really good person when I went (on the show) because of the way ABC portrayed him on (the previous season of 'The Bachelorette.')

SereneLdy cannot find anything on why she called off the wedding. Maybe it was a rebound situation.
