The Bachelorseason 29’s Litia Garr was recently spotted forgetting her troubles at Coachella. The 31-year-old venture capitalist is still reeling from being rejected by Grant Ellis. She was one of 25 single women who spent the season dating Grant, 31, a day trader and former basketball player. Litia focused on her career her whole adult life, but now she was ready to find her husband. She comes from a large, close-knit Mormon family, so having her own family was important to her. She fell hard for Grant, and he fell for her, but it wasn’t meant to be.
Grant liked Litia right away, and the couple had an instant connection. She seemed to be a front-runner throughoutThe Bachelorseason 29. By the time the final rose ceremony rolled around, Litia was convinced that Grant intended to give her his final rose. When he proposed to Juliana Pasquarosa, 28, instead, Litia was blindsided. She never saw the elimination coming. Since confronting Grant during the season finale, Litiahas been trying to heal her broken heart. She’s been spending time with her former castmates and was recently spotted partying it up at Coachella.
What Happened Between Grant & Litia?
“It Was Going To Be Us”
DuringThe Bachelorseason 29, Grant whittled his initial 25 women down to Litia and Juliana. He made the mistake of telling both women he loved them, ensuring one would be blindsided. During the season finale, Litiarevealed that Grant had gone even further than telling her that he loved her. According to Litia, he repeatedly told her he intended to pick her in the end. She even claimed he said he wanted to end the season early because he knew it was her.
DuringThe Bachelorseason 29 finale, Litiaaccused Grant of misleading her. “Grant and I had talked a lot about that day, and everything that he had ever said about it was that it was going to be us,” Litia said. “I remember saying goodbye to him and saying, ‘Oh my gosh, we are getting engaged tomorrow.’ And he said, ‘I know, I can’t wait. I love you. I love you. I love you.’Those were the last words that he said to me before I walked up there. So it was a shock.” Grant has since denied Litia’s claims.

It’s fact that he repeatedly misled her so aggressively. It may be a long time before Litia can ever fully trust a man again, but she shouldn’t waste too much time. She should do her best to move on from Grant, and having fun at Coachella was a great start.
