Ryan Park: The Next Bachelor?
Ashley Hebert rejected Ryan Park not once, but twice this season. Still, she says The Bachelorette castoff is one of her top choices to be The Bachelor.
Would he consider a turn in the spotlight as the next Bachelor? "Maybe!" he said on a conference call with reporters, saying it would be an honor.
While he was clearly stoked about the idea - almost as much as he is about tankless water heaters - he did say it's no easy task to be in command.
"Being the Bachelorette is hard!" Park said. "It's unfortunate [Ashley] is being attacked for her insecurities, and how [Bentley Williams] preyed on that."
As for getting dumped twice, Ryan says he has no hard feelings.
"When I was let go, I didn't really understand, [but] now everything becomes clearer watching her chemistry with the other guys," the 31-year-old said.
Having been dispatched before the hometown dates, Ryan showed up in Fiji out of the blue in this week's episode. Ashley sent him home again.
"Timing has a place in every relationship. I do think Ashley and Icould work; Maybe a date earlier on could have sparked something," he said.
"Something could have been different if it was under different circumstances - or if [finalists] Ben Flajnik and JP Rosenbaum weren't around!"
All in all, Park deems his one-time love "a great Bachelorette," saying she was often misunderstood and looked at unfairly by fans and viewers.
Park says he's no longer "in love with Ashley," but will always feel a close connection to The Bachelorette star. That's nice at least.
What do you think? Can you see Ryan Park as The Bachelor?

I am shocked at the comments about Ryan. He is amazing in so many ways. Someone whom is postive, loves life, cares about the environment, kind nature, sucessful and does his homework!!! is in my eyes a perfect man.

I think it should be Ben. He is witty,smart, and was always my 2nd choice. I LOVE J.P. though. Ben will find someone better... in my opinoin. He IS in fact the better family man, total package actually. He just deserves a BETTER woman who won't frickin' humiliat him. At least she didn't pick the ugly, stupid, CRAPPY Bentley.

If Ryan is the next Bachelor I probably won't watch the next season. Ames or Ben would be much better choices. Don't get me wrong Ryan seems like a wonderful person, I just don't enjoy watching him on television. Ames, on the other hand, is articulate and interesting and makes for compelling viewing. Didn't you see how much everyone applauded for Ames at the Men Tell All? Please don't pick Ryan.

ABSOLUTELY IT SHOULD BE RYAN!! HE IS THE CATCH OF ALL CATCHES - THE TOTAL PACKAGE.... ANY SINGLE LADY WOULD BE SO LUCKY TO WIN HIS HEART!!

I think that Ryan should be the next bachelor. I was upset because Ashley let certain ones get multiple alone dates before she even gave Ryan one alone date. So how could she really know that he wasn't the one. He was robbed of a fair shot. He is gorgeous, successful, sweet, caring, sincere, and very honest. He can be my bachelor anyday.

I was rooting for Ben the whole time on the bachelorette! I was shocked when Ashley didnt pick him. My heart went out to him and his heartache..i definitely want to see Ben as the next bachelor!!!! Ames is already going to be on the new Bachelor Pad series and Ryan would be just boring to watch lol i think youd get ALOT more viewers with Ben as the Bachelor ;)

I think Ryan will be a really boooooring Bachelor! Can you imaginethe conversations? I agree with someone earlier that said Ben might need more time and that he'll do well on his own. I say find someone new!
