"Fix Your Face": The Bachelor’s Grant Ellis Reveals How His Sister Really Feels About Juliana Amid Signs Producers Made A Mistake Choosing Him As Lead

The Bachelor season 29 star Grant Ellis revealed what his sister, Taylor, actually thinks about his new fiancée, Juliana Pasquarosa, after Taylor appeared to have a negative reaction to him choosing her instead of Litia Garr during the season finale. At the end of The Bachelor season 29, Grant and Juliana got engaged, leaving Litia confused and angry because she felt that he'd misled her throughout their journey. As Taylor sat in the audience, the expression on her face led some fans to speculate that she believed Grant made the wrong choice when he picked Juliana over Litia.

Grant shared that Taylor loves Juliana and that sometimes he has to remind Taylor to be more aware of her facial expressions.

In an interview with Us Weekly, Grant shared that Taylor loves Juliana and that sometimes he has to remind Taylor to be more aware of her facial expressions. He said, "They have a great relationship. Sometimes I have to tell my sister, like, 'Dude, fix your face.' Like, that’s just her. She has this mentality where she’s a boss, I guess. I don’t know what that is, but that’s my sister and she loves Juliana very much."

Grant also acknowledged that Bachelor fans on social media are always going to speculate about things, but he, Juliana, and Taylor know their truth. He shared, "The Internet is gonna create a narrative and run with what they want. We know what we have internally, and that’s what we have to go with."

What Grant Ellis Doing Damage Control Means After Sister’s Finale Reaction

Grant Wants To Defend Juliana From Negativity

Bachelor Nation has a bad habit of looking for negativity where it doesn't exist, so Grant is now defending Juliana and his relationship with her from it. By explaining Taylor's facial expressions, Grant is letting the world know that his sister didn't mean anything by how she looked during the Bachelor finale, and that she and Juliana have a great relationship. This is wonderful to hear because Taylor also liked Litia very much, especially when she met her on a surprise visit during the premiere, which is why the speculation began in the first place.

Our Take On Grant Ellis Pushing Back Against Speculation About His Sister

Grant Wants To Move On From The Bachelor Season 29

I think it's great that Grant is able to joke about Taylor's seemingly annoyed reaction to him choosing Juliana. His explanation that it was just part of her personality proves that they have a really good brother-and-sister relationship. I understand the speculation, though, because Grant faced so much backlash during his season because of how torn he was between Juliana and Litia at the end. It was to the point that people thought that it was a sign the producers made a mistake when they chose him as the lead.

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

However, now that his season is over, and he's happily engaged to Juliana, Grant wants to move on from the negativity and enjoy his life. I don't blame him for wanting to shut down any doubts about Taylor accepting Juliana because the show made it clear that he values his sister's opinion, and there could've been problems if she wasn't on board with his engagement after The Bachelor. As he said, all that matters is their truth. I'm thrilled that Grant found his happily-ever-after with Juliana, and that Taylor is so happy for her brother.
