The postponement of Clare Crawley and Tayshia Adams' season of The Bachelorette has given us an additional few months to sift through the wreckage of Peter Weber's season of The Bachelor to try and figure out what the hell happened.
And that's a good thing, because we're still pretty baffled by what we witnessed, and there's no black box to tell us what was going through the pilot's mind.
Barbara Weber is not a woman who lacks for opinions.
Or haters.
As you're probably aware, Peter Weber is still dating Kelley Flanagan following one of the most random twist endings in Bachelor history.
Against all odds, the relationship is getting serious, and we learned this week that Peter and Kelley are planning to move to New York together.
These days, Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are in love and planning to take some major steps in their relationship.
But to say the odds were against these two in the beginning would be a massive understatement.
The Bachelor has brought us some pretty lame dudes and even lamer endings over the years.
But perhaps no one has disappointed viewers quite as thoroughly as Peter Weber.
Madison Prewett has admitted that her heart isn't ready to date again after Peter Weber.
Worse than the breakup, perhaps, was her feud with Peter's mom. How does she feel about Barb these days?
Last month, it became very apparent that Barb approves of Kelley Flanagan after she and Peter Weber went public with their not-so-secret romance.
Now, Barb is taking it further, publicly declaring that Kelley is like the daughter she "always wanted."
Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are not wasting any time, you guys.
The Bachelor and the suitor he kicked off his season of The Bachelor weeks before the finale are very much a romantic item these days.
As has been made very clear over the past few weeks, Kelley Flanagan and Peter Weber are going strong.
Very, VERY strong, we should say.
It may not have made for the most compelling season of television.
In fact, there's much to be said for the argument that Peter Weber wasted everybody's time.
Here's the thing, Bachelor Nation.
And it's the thing that you may need to wrestle with for awhile, for at least as loong as Kelley Flanagan and Peter Weber continue to flaunt their affection for each otherr on social media.
We've known for a couple months now that Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are dating.
But it's only in recent weeks that Weber and Flanagan have stopped hiding their relationship and started flaunting it.
Chris Harrison has officially confirmed what all of Bachelor Nation has known for months now:
That Peter Weber guy?
Whether or not Peter Weber is really the worst Bachelor of all time, as some fans insist, there's no denying that Hannah Ann Sluss got a raw deal from his season.
Peter proposed to Hannah Ann, she accepted, and then -- in the anti-climax to end all anti-climaxes -- he just sort of allowed the relationship to fizzle out over the course of a month, forcing her to hunt him down and break it off.
With all the controversies surrounding Hannah Brown's season of The Bachelorette, it's easy to forger that Peter Weber was caught up in a mini-scandal of his own.
Along with several of Brown's other contestants, Peter was revelaed to have secret girlfriend waiting for him at home while he competed for Hannah's heart.
We've never seen a Bachelor receive quite so much input from his mother as Peter Weber.
And maybe that's why we've never seen a Bachelor who seemed to be pulled in so many different directions before.
Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are official.
Or, to be more specific, Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are now Instagram official.
Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan have gone from doing all they can to keep their romance a secret...
... to now doing the total and complete opposite.
Peter Weber has spent time gushing about Kelley Flanagan even though the two insisted that they were merely "friends" in lockdown together.
But now, a report just blew the doors wide open on their real relationship.
What can we say about Peter Weber that hasn't already been said by the millions of viewers who were supremely annoyed by his wishy-washy indecisiveness during the most recent season of The Bachelor?
Was Peter the worst Bachelor in the show's history? That's still up for debate.
