Jake Pavelka still loves Bachelor frontrunner Ali Fedotowsky… as a friend! Vienna, you’ve got nothing to worry about!
Now that The Bachelor’s Jake Pavelka is happily engaged to Vienna Girardi, he has nothing but good things to say about former flame Ali Fedotowsky ! In fact, Jake likes her SO much he wishes he could have set up Ali with one of his pals!
“If I had a friend that I thought would be great for Ali I probably would have kept her off the Bachelorette, but I didn’t and this is a great opportunity for her. [Vienna and I] are pulling for her,” the 32-year-old pilot, currently competing on Dancing With the Stars, told HollywoodLife.com exclusively at pal Mark Ballas’ concert in LA April 12.
“[Ali’s] awesome. In every episode I’ve ever watched, she was growing as a person on The Bachelor and she deserved that spot [as the Bachelorette],” he added.
But what does Vienna, 25, have to say about her former rival for Jake’s affections? Remember, these are the women who loathed each other on the show. Well, not much. But that was only because she was signing autographs while we spoke to her man! Jake did confirm that Vienna shares his sentiments on Ali. “We think she is going to find love and she deserves it,” he said.
We’re glad that Vienna and Ali have put the claws away—and now they’re BOTH going to have the men of their dreams (or, at least, Ali will be searching for hers when the Bachelorette premieres May 24). Don’t you just love a happy ending?

Kate’s doing the best she can! I think that she is doing great at the “I’ll stick to this adventure” process.Kate has not had TIME to take any dance lessons. She has NO dance background — and — she’s wearing shoes that are probably hurting her feet! (I’m speaking from my experience in dance competitions, wearing brand new, professional high heeled shoes!) I’d bet she has more than a few bandages on her feet!
This show is for entertainment, but it also serves as a motivational show for those at different ages, in different professions. She’s doing this competition — in “her style.”
Kate is getting a chance to dance — at this time of her life — on live TV. How very proud her children must be of her. She is a good example of trying to do something in life that is totally scary! And — she’s doing it!
