The Bachelor Season 29 runner-up, Litia Garr, may not have captured Grant Ellis’ heart, but she has been embracing her life post-show with remarkable resilience. This 31-year-old venture capitalist from Salt Lake City, Utah, was taken by surprise when Grant, a 30-year-old day trader from Newark, New Jersey, decided to propose to Juliana Pasquarosa, a 28-year-old client service associate from Newton, Massachusetts. Litia recalled that just before their split, Grant expressed love for her—a sentiment she hadn’t vocalized to him yet—leading her to believe he was committed to their relationship.
The season finale left viewers on the edge of their seats as Grant wavered between the two contenders until the last possible moment. After their breakup, Litia delivered an emotional response, suggesting that Grant’s true character was different from her expectations, describing the experience as a “crazy switch-up.”During the subsequent “After the Final Rose”segment, Grant extended an apology for the hurt he caused her. Litia expressed relief that the finale was not part of her love story, affirming her worth and the need for someone who confidently chooses her. Here’s a glimpse into Litia’s life in the aftermath of Season 29.
