Netflix has done it again.
While this proposal was met with praise, a similar surprise was met with a different response.
Immediately after Nate Ruggles asked his partner Lauren Pounds to marry him, his costars expressed their disappointment.

Some of you really need to go through this experience."
But I need to pick someone.'"
Despite ending his time on the series early, Ruggles maintains that “The Ultimatum” did help him.

He said, “This experience, and I said this before, did help me.
Still, no one held a candle to Lauren, to me.”
She happily shared, “We have agreed to have one for now.”
