The gifts the guys give on the last chance dates are totally set up. First off, production takes your camera, cell phone and computer, etc. So it’s impossible for any guy to give Ali a photo of themselves together without production doing it all for them. All the gifts on the show are all done by production. “Here, give this gift to her, she will love it!” they say.

As for the $50,000 Neil Lane ring – that’s given to each contestant who proposes as well. They put the jeweler on camera, make him feel like a super star and put his jewelry company’s brand name in front of 15 million viewers - and he gives them some rings. They didn't pay for the ring – almost everything is a trade for TV time.”
