It was a Hollywood ending on screen for these couples. Here's what happened after the final ceremonies. Who: Andrew Firestone & Jennifer Schefft, The Bachelor 3
The Way They Were: Mr. Firestone, heir to grandpappy's tire industry and the family's wine biz, says he knew at first sight -- despite a view obstructed by 24 other foxy contenders clamoring for his eye (and wallet) -- that Jen was the One. A Chicago account executive, Jen hailed from more modest beginnings. Aside from a sweet disposition -- she was put to the test and faced with fearsome vineyard wildlife, like ponies (she also had natural beauty and a way with the 'rents and siblings). After sending hottie runner-up Kirsten packing, Andrew told Jen he loved her, knelt down and proposed. A breathless Mrs. Firestone to-be accepted, exclaiming that it had all gone too fast.

Reality Bites: Their post-show romance lasted for about 10 months before combusting. For a while the two were inseparable, hawking their smooching, grinning mugs around town at public appearances and as tabloid centerfolds. They reassured inquiring minds everywhere of their romance and, even, Oprah; but it was just a few days after kissing up to the Queen of Talk that Jen and Andrew bid adieu in mid-December. Shocked? Sorry, sucker, but we saw red flags from the start. For one: Andrew's old roommate never moved out. It also seemed like Jen left her heart in the Midwest, and never quite took to Andrew's Richie Rich lifestyle. But the two insist their problems were plain. "Our love for each other was genuine," said Jen, "but we confronted the same challenges as any other couple trying to make a relationship work day to day."
