ET's Lauren Zima sat down with Chris Harrison to talk about Tuesday night's shocking finale. 'The Bachelor' airs Mondays on ABC.

Why Madison was willing to take Peter back after he had no issues proposing to Hannah Ann is beyond me.

[SonyaLCH]

Worst proposal ever. "Madison left 2 days ago. So I guess I love you. Let"s get married. . ."

[catherinehuang]

I have to say the fact that Chris Harrison and Lauren Zima are dating and kept this interview professional is a testament of how they are good at their jobs.

[CM-tgco]

These two are pros. Every time they do an interview together, they still keep it totally professional and you'd never know they have a relationship outside of this. That's not easy. I also love them together!

[resten.mutesasira]

If barb had a daughter, she would have acted different. Madi's parents didn't like peter either but were not rude to him

[MontserratTorres]

Can we talk about how Chris worked harder to get Madison and Peter together than either of them😂

[saywhat]

I would be pissed if I was Madison’s Mom....how dare Barb treat Madison like that???

[keepinglifeflowing]

This is the breakdown we needed. Chris Harrison is rightfully horrified. For al of the people cheering and wishing the demise of this relationship, Chris put the onus in the right place. The buck stopped with Peter’s parents. Period.

[leonelamarquez]

WHY MADI's parents not there.. The rating would have been "ding" ding" ding"

[megans]

CHRIS HARRISON SPEAKING ALL THE TRUTH!!!! OUR GUY!

[anastasialazic]

I think that this season had one of the saddest and unsatisfying endings ever. Like this is peters life, madisons life, hannah anns life and they all (barbara) just aired their bad laundry on national television for our enjoyment but once the cameras stop rolling and the season is over, they all go home and continue to go through that. I dont know what peters intentions were by going on the show and if he did it for the wrong reasons but you cant help but feel bad for him. My heart goes out to all three of them, none of them deserved this ending. And i feel like since the night did go the way that it did, it left a lot of questions and ambiguity as to what happens next and where to go from this. I wish them nothing but the best (except barb, she was the worst lol!)

[danyelleb]

Momma is jealous of Madison...Madison will have control and she wouldn't. With Hannah Ann, Barb knew she could run her and Peter's life.

[daniellemontreal]

"You're not speaking Alien!...It's SPANISH!" Can someone put that on a tshirt or decal pls? Mkaythanks.

[rachelcameron]

Thank you Chris for reminding everyone that THE CONVERSATION THAT MADE BARB WAIT WAS VERY NECESSARY AND IT SHOULD NOT BE BLAMED ON MADISON. period.

[Burn]

Chris shouldn’t have gone after Madi, Peter should’ve never proposed to Hannah Ann, Barb should’ve acted better, Mike should’ve been the bachelor. So many things during this season COULD have been avoided.

[bhavya.d]

They shouldn't involve parents. This season they did and it's a mess.

Edit: Holy shit! I didn't knew my comment would blow up like this. Thanks guys

[CJ-]

Yeah they forgot how madison parents and sisters might feel seeing their daughter and sister treated that way, imagine how she felt thinking her family and friends saw that. Yeah dont only think about the webers.

[gcool]

I bet producers are wishing that they had just chosen Mike. Better guy, more diversity, better ratings. Peter’s season was the worst in bachelor history and was completely a waste of time.

[Tatyana]

Barb displayed the maturity of a 12 year old and I feel like I'm offending 12 year olds. Too bad her spirituality didn't teach her any wisdom. I SHOOK!

[_itsmeeim]

Barb embarrassed herself tbh. There is no taking back the words and her action she made in public if she likes HER* sons decision or not.
