Arie Luyendyk Announces New Relationship: Lucky Woman Is A News Reporter

Bachelorette star Arie Luyendyk may have been heartbroken that Emily Maynard didn’t pick him in the end of her season. Arie was super excited to go on a final date with her, but Emily felt a stronger connection with Jef Holm. But Luyendyk fought for what he wanted, as he continued to try to see Emily after returning home, despite the fact she was engaged to his best friend from the show. Luyendyk later accepted the fact that the relationship was over.

But that wasn’t the end of Arie Luyendyk’s presence in the Bachelor family. When Courtney Robertson and Ben Flajnik were finding love on the show, their relationship in real life was already crumbling, as the show was filmed months in advance. As their romance was airing on TV, Courtney was actually hooking up with Luyendyk behind closed doors, according to the Inquisitr. She opened up about her brief romance with Arie in her book, I Didn’t Come Here To Make Friends: Confessions of a Reality Show Villain.

According to a new Wetpaint Entertainment report, Arie Luyendyk quickly ended his relationship with Courtney and began dating people who were not from the show. And it sounds like he has just confirmed that he has found love with a local Arizona news reporter by the name of Jenna Jones.

This week, Arie posted a picture of himself and Jenna with the caption, “I’m one lucky man…my #WCW.”

This isn’t the first time that Arie has hinted that he could have been in a relationship. A while back, he did share a picture of himself and Jenna, but it was uncertain whether they were actually in a relationship.

“All I’ll ever need right here #100happydays,” he wrote back then.

Of course, it was just this summer that Arie Luyendyk was gunning for the title of Bachelor. This past summer, Luyendyk revealed that he would love to be on the show to find love once again. It was a battle between Arie and Chris Soules with the farmer clearly winning. And people had mixed reactions to this decision, as people really wanted to see Arie find love again.

“Not too happy about this. Still wanted him to be the bachelor or my husband,” while others wrote, “boooooo” or “nooooo.”

But it sounds like Arie Luyendyk was able to find love on his own. He hasn’t really given any details about how they met, or how long they have been together, but it sounds like he has become a bit more private since his Bachelorette days.

What do you think of Arie Luyendyk finding love again? Would you want to see him on The Bachelor in the future?
