Who Went Home on The Golden Bachelor Tonight?
Four women packed their bags and said heartfelt goodbyes on “The Golden Bachelor” tonight: Amy, Monica B., Monica P., and Terri. All the drama and emotion happened poolside, and let’s just say, nobody had to actually jump in the pool as a “punishment” for not getting a rose, though, honestly, after some of the tension during the cocktail hour, a cannonball might have been a welcome icebreaker. Amy, the effortlessly funny full-time mom, Monica B., the flight attendant with stories for days, Monica P., the dentist who always knew when to flash a comforting smile, and Terri, Houston’s reliable tooth expert, all waved goodbye to their Golden journey.

Awkward Goodbyes And Emotional Moments
It’s always a little jarring watching a group of people, who just last night felt like lifelong friends suddenly become casual acquaintances again. As Amy joked with Monica B. about their imaginary trip to Bachelor in Paradise (seriously, producers, take notes!), there were real tears. Terri looked especially bummed she’d gotten into more than one candid conversation about why perfect teeth might not be the secret to romance. There’s something genuinely touching about seeing grown women set ego aside and hug it out, mascara streaks and all. Even Mel, the bachelor himself, looked like he could use either a group hug or a nap. Who among us hasn’t been the reason for an awkward breakup and just wanted to run away and eat cheese in peace?
Cocktail Hour Shenanigans
Right before the rose ceremony, the cocktail hour had all the usual suspects: nervous glances, small talk, and desperate one-on-ones with Mel. Amy was hustling hard, breaking the “no hovering” rule (which, honestly, is such a funny concept on a reality show built around hovering). Carol tried three ways to tell Mel he’s handsome, while Cindy oh, Cindy made it glaringly obvious she’s not cool with Mel exploring relationships with other women. “I don’t share men very well,” she confessed, which, come on, might be the most relatable line of Bachelor Nation this week. This casual confession definitely stoked the fire for next week’s “here for the wrong reasons” drama.
Roses, Drama, and Who’s Left
In case you’re keeping score at home, here’s a not-so-perfect table of who went home and who’s still in the running:

Roses went to Debbie, Cindy, Peg, Roxanne, Gerri, Cheryl, Robin, Nicolle, and Carol. These ladies are hanging on for another week of dates, drama, and maybe more teary poolside chats. It’s funny each time the roses get handed out, there’s this moment where you expect someone to stand on a chair and give a rallying pep talk. Never happens. But that’s what makes “The Golden Bachelor” so weirdly charming.
