'The chemistry is undeniable!' Bachelorette Andi Dorfman gushes about Josh Murray... who is rumoured to be her final choice
Rumours have been rife that The Bachelorette star Andi Dorfman is already living with Josh Murray in Georgia and Monday's show did little to quell that gossip.
After the results of the primetime show were 'leaked' fans were left wondering if the chatter was true.
Way ahead of the finale famed blogger Reality Steve asserted that Josh, a former pro baseball player, would become the attractive prosecutor's husband.
Limp love: The Bachelorette star Andi Dorfman used limp asparagus on Monday to describe an uninspired date on the reality show
The excitable Josh, 29, scored another intimate date (and rose) with the brunette stunner.
'I'm falling in love…I've never felt like this,' said Josh, who appeared to be smitten from the moment the TV competition opened.
After a hand-in-hand stroll they partook a smoochy sailboat ride and breezy cliff top picnic.

Rose ceremony: Andi narrowed the field in France
'The physical chemistry is undeniable,' purred Andi, while conceding that she always dates 'Josh's type' and 'it never usually works out'.
Overlooking the waves she discussed travel, kids and sport with her athletic suitor.
The budding lovers also bonded over their shared roots in Atlanta, Georgia.
Getting cosy: Andi and Josh enjoyed a romantic conversation on a cliff
'But I worry that the main connection we have is physical,' she mused after they spent much of the date passionately kissing and hugging.
'I want to have a deep conversation with him,' she decided, while trying to coax him to reveal his inner secrets.
A final talk about their 'emotions' and vulnerability from past relationships appeared to seal the deal.
Making out: Andi made out with a couple contestants on Monday night's show
'It was one of the best, if not the best day of my life,' gushed the zealous sportsman after they had slow-danced to a 'romantic private concert' in the moonlight.
'This is perfect,' breathed 27-year-old Andi.
Later she was 'so sure' of her 'instincts' that she skipped the cocktail party and ruthlessly discarded three men.
'I know what I want,' she asserted.

The night's action had begun in Marseille, in the south of France.
Andi, who had never been to France before, adored the 'charming' Mediterranean port.
'It's the perfect place to fall in love,' she cooed, while admitting that she's already falling for 'more than one' of the guys.
Meanwhile a racism dispute had erupted after JJ told Marquel that Andrew may have referred to him as 'a blackie'
Marquel, a 26-year-old sponsorship salesman from Las Vegas, was hurt and began crying.
'It's awful to realise that no matter how you treat people, sometimes to them you'll still just be 'that black guy',' he said.
Hurtful words: Marquel became upset after learning that Andrew had allegedly referred to him in racial terms
He later confronted Andrew - who denied it vehemently.
'I'm looking you in the eye man…it's complete bull****,' said Andrew.
The 'group date' was a mime class to help the nine men 'improve their nonverbal communication'.
The wonky mime novices were then forced to perform live for the French public.
The crowd looked at best nonplussed, at worst 'terrified' of the sloppy performance.

JJ, Cody and Marquel 'worked it' while morose Nick V. 'sulked' in the corner.
'I don't want to pretend I enjoy the group dates,' he pouted.
'I don't want all these other guys here with us,' he complained.
'Not wasting any time' JJ, a 31-year-old pantsapreneur [entrepreneur of trouser design] then whisked Andi away for a Ferris wheel ride.
'It's so romantic,' she beamed to the handsome San Francisco resident.

The slick move earned JJ a rose – which palpably annoyed Nick V, a software sales engineer.
Nick, from Chicago, then came to loggerheads with Cody, a stocky personal trainer.
'Don't mock me, coming on this show was a big deal to me,' griped Cody who kept repeating 'how thankful' he was to be there.

Andi addressed the situation with Nick V. calling him 'salty'.
Nick who was 'falling for Andi fast' said his moodiness stemmed from jealousy.
He then read her a personalised love letter.
'When I see you, I see a future,' he orated.
Wondering if Nick 'might be a bit manipulative' Andi was melting regardless.
'I can't deny the mental connection…and he's just so sweet,' she said.
'Are you going to kiss me already?' she asked him.
Rose guys: JJ, Josh and Brian had nothing to worry about
'Easy and fun' Brian was given a private date – a movie followed by preparing a frogs legs dinner.
The basketball coach from Pennsylvania 'hates cooking,' which completely ruined the latter part of the date.
Eating sea urchins at the market didn't impress him much either.
'I could have done without that,' he grimaced later.
'I'm totally out of my comfort zone,' he moaned.
Andi was disappointed.
Stepped up: Brian was out of his element cooking but got a rose anyway
'He's not rising to the occasion,' she said, holding up a limp vegetable.
'But I wanted to kiss you every second,' he explained later - which earned him a rose.
'That's a man right there,' she giggled.
Three men were ejected at the end:
California contestant Andrew was somewhat bitter.
Narrowing the field: Andi addressed her remaining suitors
'I have been bullied…it really sucks,' he said.
Advertising executive Patrick, another Californian, was also given the boot.
'I don't get it,' said the 29-year-old incredulously.
Missed out: Patrick said that Andi didn't get to see his husband potential
Marquel was tearful but resigned to his fate.
'I believe in love again now,' he sniffed.
Next week the show will be set in Venice, Italy.
