Blake will forever be known as the guy who brought a giant horse into ABC's studio. His sell to Becca was, "When you fall off the horse, you’ve got to get back up again." And then he got her to climb up and sit side-saddle, despite her gown and heels. She did not look comfortable.
According to Instagram, his full name is Blake Horstmann, he's from Denver and, like Ryan, he enjoys wearing bowties.
Call him Blake Horse-man! This strapping fella walked onstage alongside an equine friend named Bradley.
We'll see how well these guys do when The Bachelorette Season 14 premieres on May 28. Until then, be sure to join our Bachelor Facebook group

Less than a week away from the premiere and things are beginning to ramp up. Most notably, Becca went on GMA this morning and revealed that she is engaged.
The big question now becomes, “Well Reality Steve, who is she engaged to?”
I don’t think this should surprise anyone, but Jason was eliminated after overnight dates. Blake and Garrett are your final two. Ever since they returned from filming, those who have been following along and dissecting social media have seen the comments by now, with the biggest one being Connor writing on Blake’s IG about him being engaged, then retracting it saying he doesn’t know anything and was just having fun. Here’s the deal: I don’t know for sure who won yet.
It’s obvious from the first episode these are the two she’s into the most, and they are your final two. I’m waiting to get the confirmation I need from one particular source.

I’m gonna share an email exchange from yesterday with you from someone who could’ve been a source. If you haven’t seen the news by now, TMZ posted pictures from Becca’s final rose ceremony in the Maldives this morning which clearly shows...
I won't post the spoiler; if you want it, you can go to Reality Steve's blog to find out or you can wait and enjoy the season as it progresses.
