I can't be the only one who just about had a mental breakdown when Ben sent Amanda home last week (not an exaggeration). Although she may not have stolen Ben's heart, she absolutely stole ours. After watching Amanda tell the audience that she was falling love with Ben right before he sent her home, my heart broke. I couldn't understand why Ben would do this to us. Amanda is perfect! We think that Amanda is worthy of any one's love, and because of that, we've decided that Amanda should 100 percent be the next bachelorette. Here's why.
1. She is the ultimate #MomGoals.
Not only can you tell how much she cares and loves for her children, but she also has made them two of the most stylish children on the West Coast. She is beautiful, her kids are adorable and she's an incredible mother.
2. You also lost it when Ben sent her home.
I have to say, I have been all for Ben Higgins and his choices, up until this point. Are you crazy, Ben? What's the point of this show anymore? Why do you hate us all so much? Do you want me to be miserable? Is love even real? Yes, I absolutely balled my eyes out in her final scenes.
3. She is an incredible friend.
Competition aside, Amanda was there for the other girls and was an especially caring friend for Lauren and Emily. Besides Ben, watching this friendship form and see how they interacted on social media was one of my favorite things. Lauren, Emily and Amanda are squad goals.
4. Amanda would look good with anyone!
From her perfectly hombre'd hair to her amazing style and beautiful smile, Amanda has it all. We know that she would compliment any man well. Ugh, Amanda, you're so perfect.
5. The world needs more of Kinsley and Charlie.![]()
The two adorable girls stole everyone's heart in the last episode. They were definitely the stars of the show.
6. She know what she wants in life.
Amanda was serious about the show. She's a single mom who has already been through a lot in life. She wasn't on the show to mess around, she was serious about finding love and building a family for her children.
7. She's an extremely caring person, but she's not afraid to stand up for herself.
Amanda was seen as the "sweetheart" of Season 20, but there were definitely times when Amanda had to put that aside and say it like it is.
8. You worship her style.
Amanda's closet is something sent from heaven. Every outfit she wore on the show left me Googling to see where I could find it.
10. You want Amanda to find love more than you want it.
In the end, you forgave Ben for saying goodbye to Amanda because, overall, you know that Amanda deserves someone who is just as crazy about her as she is about them. After all, the last stage of grief is acceptance. It's time we learn to live with his decision and move on (hopefully, by making Amanda the next Bachelorette).
