Mel was “shocked” by Cindy’s exit, saying, “I came into tonight thinking there was a future, but she quit.”
Owens met with Peg the next day and shared he wasn’t sure he could commit, but he later changed his mind!

Peg gushed, “One thing I can say about Mel: He doesn’t have integrity. He is integrity. Let that sink in. That’s one thing I love about him.”
“Extra” spoke with Mel earlier this season, and he talked about his final two ladies, Peg and Cindy, and what appealed to him about each of them.
Mel shared, “One common denominator they have is they have energy and they’re lovely and they’re smart… they’re both athletic.”
As for their differences, Owens explained, “Peg has a background where she had a lot of sacrifice and that appeals to me and Cindy, she’s really serious and thoughtful and she has three daughters. So that appeals to me as well. So those two things really draw me in to those women.”
