So how did Grant wind up his search for love? Read on to find out more in our spoiler-filled recap!
Who did Grant Ellis pick on The Bachelor 2025 finale tonight?
Juliana(Disney/Matt Sayles)
Juliana, 28, a client service associate from Newton, Mass. She told Grant he made her believe she was deserving in love. At the proposal site, Juliana said she would "create a safe space" for him.
"The sky's the limit...I love you." Juliana wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.
Grant told her she'd inspired him through the entire Bachelor journey and she was his best friend.
"I'll be there for you as your man, as your friend, as your partner," he said.
Grant got down on one knee and asked Juliana, "Will you marry me?"
"Yes!" Juliana replied, adding, "Oh, my God!"
They kissed and she accepted his final rose.

Litia(Disney/Matt Sayles)
Litia, 31, a venture capitalist from Salt Lake City, Utah.
Grant’s decision to choose Juliana meant that Litia was eliminated. On the final day, Litia said she was ready to start a family with him. She told him she'd fallen in love with him on week two of the show!
But he told her, "This is hard for me. Litia, I love you. But I'm not your person."
Grant noted, "My emotional connection was stronger somewhere else."
Litia immediately recoiled and snapped at him, "It's all about you. I think I got my answers. I'm disappointed. You're different than I thought."
Referring to Juliana, Litia told Grant, "I would have a lot of questions if I were her."
Litia stared daggers at Grant and said, "The switch up is crazy."
"I'm confused and I'm sad and I'm mad."
Litia went home in the van, still expressing her surprised disappointment.

Litia said she thought Grant made the right choice, but she still was upset about how he handled things after leading her on.
When Grant joined her in front of Jesse, she said he'd started out with great intentions.
But, Litia told Grant, "You went out of bounds...there was no transparency that you were conflicted."
How did Grant struggle during the finale?
On the final day, the reality star told cameras both women were “equally amazing.”
Grant consulted his dad Robert, indicating how supportive Litia was but how he found Juliana the most fun.
“You deserve to be happy,” said Robert, not influencing him in any way.
Grant chose a Neil Lane diamond engagement ring—but for which woman?
Host Jesse told Grant both women were on their way to the proposal site, and he had to know who to send to him first.
“I don’t know,” which one, Grant sighed.
But he did, finally, make his decision.
What did Grant’s parents think of both women?
During the show, Grant’s parents, Robert and Renee, and sister, Taylor, visited the DR to support him. Divorced Renee and Robert loved Litia, finding her kind, genuine, and family-oriented.
The Bachelor star’s mom asked Litia if she had any doubts about settling down with Grant. She didn’t! But Grant confided in his dad, a recovering addict, that he wanted to travel with his partner, while Mormon Litia hoped to have kids right away.
Robert told him that shouldn’t influence his decision: “Don’t let one little issue stop the show.”
“I do love you,” Grant told Litia after the meeting with his family. Litia returned the sentiment and said she’d never said that to any man before!

Grant’s family then sat down with Juliana, and Renee loved the beauty’s “vibrant, positive energy.” But she was worried when Juliana admitted, “We haven’t told each other we love each other.”
Grant’s mom sighed to him, “She’s not quite there yet.”
Renee told Grant to walk away if Juliana didn’t say the L word.
But she didn’t need to be concerned. “I do love you,” Grant told Juliana at the end of the day.
“I love you, too,” she smiled.
What happened on The Bachelor 2025’s final dates tonight?
Grant met Juliana for a romantic sailboat ride and swim. Later that night, he asked Juliana if she was ready to get engaged.

The two went horseback riding in the rain. That night, Grant asked Litia if she felt pressure to have a big family. Her timeline to have kids was two years and Grant wondered if he wouldn't be ready for that.
"I want you to feel ready," she replied. Litia felt his stress and said, "You are enough. I love you."
She told cameras, "I want to marry him."
"Pick me!" Litia told Grant.
