Juliana Pasquarosa, a finalist from season 29 of The Bachelor, recently addressed a resurfaced comment concerning her fiancé, Grant Ellis, and fellow contestant Litia Garr. In a TikTok video dated April 1, 2025, Pasquarosa shared a light-hearted dance to No Doubt’s “Just a Girl,”accompanied by a caption referencing their decision to stay at different hotels before their relationship publicly unfolded.
A user took the opportunity to remind her of a pivotal moment from the show, commenting:
“Hey remember when Grant said on television ‘Should I just stop right now and pick Litia?'”
Juliana’s response was sharp yet playful:
“Hey so this is a really odd thing to take time out of your day to type.. hope that helps!!!! 🫡.”
This online exchange emerged following the season finale, where Grant proposed to Juliana, thus sending Litia home. The situation stirred significant online dialogue, especially given Grant’s previous expressions of affection for Litia during the series.
Controversy Surrounding Grant’s Remarks on Litia
In a memorable moment during the finale, Grant declared his love for Litia Garr, suggesting he could envision her as his future wife and even pondered if he should just pick her right then. He acknowledged Litia’s maturity and expressed admiration for the principles she maintained.
However, ultimately, Grant chose to propose to Juliana, leaving Litia visibly shocked at the outcome. During the live reunion segment, she conveyed her confusion and mentioned to Grant that Juliana would likely have many questions regarding his remarks throughout the show.
“When you are the Bachelor, you do see your final two contestants as somebody that could be your wife… that’s where some confusion came into play.”
Grant further remarked,
“I’m not gonna argue, I just have to accept whatever the conditions are and apologize and let her feel how she feels because she’s in a tough situation and she’s hurt.”
Juliana Pasquarosa Reflects on Litia’s Comments
In a recent episode of The Viall Files, aired on April 1, Juliana shared her thoughts regarding Litia’s statements made during the finale. She described Litia’s decision to mention her as “uncalled for.”
“I think that that was uncalled for,” Juliana stated, reflecting on Litia’s jabs during the live reunion.
According to Juliana, while most contestants maintained a respectful demeanor post-show, Litia’s comments felt particularly pointed. She explained,
“That was strictly a jab at me,” referencing Litia’s comments about deserving a partner who wasn’t “so confused up until the last second.”
Juliana expressed that while she had no issue with Litia receiving emotional support, certain public remarks made after their departures felt deeply personal and hurtful. Choosing to rise above negativity, she opted not to engage with it.
