When did former bachelor contestant Melissa Rycroft announce engagement to Tye Strickland?
We’re hoping the second time is a charm for dumped ‘Bachelor’ contestant Melissa Rycroft. Rycroft announced her engagement to boyfriend Tye Strickland on ‘Good Morning America.’ “Sometimes the stars align and the clouds part and everything works out the way it should,” Rycroft said on the program. According to Usmagazine.com, the couple celebrated their engagement with their parents at Manhattan restaurant Brio, then partied with friends late into the night. Rycroft’s first engagement was to ‘Bachelor’ JasonMesnick, who then dumped her very publicly on national television six weeks later. Rycroft rebounded quickly from the break-up and began dating Strickland shortly thereafter.
