On Season 5 of The Bachelorette, Jillian Harris was genuinely looking for love, and by the time the fantasy suites came around, she thought she found it with contestant Ed Swiderski. Jillian and Ed did end the season engaged, but their fantasy suite episode was a bit of a downer, pun intended.
During the episode, things had gotten very hot and heavy between Harris and Swiderski, but when push came to shove, they couldn’t get the deed done. “We were definitely sunburnt and exhausted … and that ‘Oh my God, I want my hands to be all over you,’ that wasn’t there,” Harris told the cameras of what went down in the fantasy suite. “I couldn’t wait to be with [him] in this setting … and that feeling that I want to be there isn’t there,” she continued. Swiderski also explained the situation in his mortifying confessional, saying, “I was very nervous, and it didn’t just happen. I couldn’t show her that I really truly am in love with her.”
Vulture‘s recap of the episode was decidedly more brutal, claiming “[Swiderski] will forever be known, insofar as he is known at all, as the guy who couldn’t get it up in the Fantasy Suite, after two others successfully sealed the deal the nights before him.” Yikes.
