Tonight Ashley got to travel to the remaining 4 guys hometowns to meet their families. First one up was Constantine who's from Atlanta, GA.
He started out the date by taking Ashley to a restaurant he owns in Cumming, GA. It's an Italian place (even though he's Greek). They built their own pizza and salad together and then ate it. After that he took her over to his parents house. There she got to meet his Mom, Dad, and Sister. Things were going along well...and quietly...until all of the sudden the doorbell rang! Surprise! It's Constantine's WHOLE ENTIRE family! Ashley was excited about the surprise and enjoyed getting to meet more people than she had expected.
Second hometown was Ames in Chads Ford, PA.
He wasted no time in introducing Ashley to his family. She met his Nieces, Nephews, Sister, and Mother. We found out on this episode that Ames not only lost his biological Father to cancer, but his step-father, as well. Ames's sister really dug deep to find out more about Ashley and make sure she was a good fit for her brother. Ashley admitted that her relationship with Ames has progressed slower than it has with the other remaining guys. After meeting the fam, Ames took Ashley to a lovely grove of Magnolia trees to picnic under. From there they rode in a horse-drawn carriage. All very romantic and whimsical.
Third hometown was with Ben F. in Sonoma, CA.
Ben owns a winery in Sonoma so, it was only fitting that he take Ashley there and get her nice and drunk off of his tasty wine. He gave her a little sample of his wine when he first met her and she'd been craving it ever since. I think she might've been more excited to see the wine than Ben, to be honest. After a short picnic in the winery he took her to his parents house to meet his family. Ashley got to meet Ben's Mother and Sister. Ben's Sister is very protective over him and has her doubts that Ashley is the one for him.
The fourth and final hometown was with J.P. in Roslyn, NY.
J.P. surprised Ashley by taking her roller skating! Ashley felt instantly transported back into the 7th grade. She loved it! Then it was off to his parents house where she met his Mom, Dad, Brother, and his Brother's Girlfriend. We saw mostly J.P.'s Mom on this date because she had, by far, the most to say. J.P. got his heart broken in his last relationship and she didn't want to see a repeat. Who can blame her? By the end of the date J.P. admits that he can't say he's in love with Ashley yet, but he feels he may be in denial of his true feelings.
In the end, Ashley simple didn't see herself with...
Ames. I'll sure miss his non-stop concussion-like state. Better luck next time, buddy.
