The Bachelor's Colton Underwood explains why he jumped the fence

The Hollywood Reporter

"I was gone for a while and, in that moment, I quit," Underwood says of the moment teased all season, which inspired memes across Twitter. "I didn’t want to be the Bachelor anymore." Underwood implies in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that his season might not end with a traditional proposal. "It caught me off guard, and I fought for it with everything that I had," he says of Cassie Randolph's exit. I throw out every unwritten rule of The Bachelor that there is — you’ve never seen a Bachelor say, 'Hey, it’s you,' when other women are still there. You see the fight, so it was tough; it was hard.” ALSO: Colton is officially the most-dumped man in Bachelor history.
