It was just strange.

I thought it was strange that her kids were ushered off the stage. If they are supposed to be one happy family, why couldn't her kids stay out there??? Another thing, he was probably afraid to take the lie detector test in case there were questions about Christy cause I do think they had more chemistry than the gal he ended up with. During the commercial, they probably assured him it was all in fun and there wouldn't be any serious questions. But if I were his fiance, I would want to know if he still harbored lusty thoughts of the beauty queen!!

Agree that the whole thing with Christina's kids was plain wierd.

I also thought Christy removed all doubt about being a bad loser and her lack of grace... ('...but I really think we had better chemistry')...and she was still so mad that she could barely spit her words out -- this from a polished and experienced beauty pagent winner. Wonder how many potential suitors are now intimidated by her vindictiveness regardless of her looks but let me tell you how I really feel...

Julie, I'm not sure of their exact ages, but the boy seemed around 14, 15 or 16 and the girl was maybe young college age -- 19 or 20.

CINCINNATI - The star of NBC's "Who Wants to Marry My Dad?" is remaining a bachelor.

Don Mueller, of suburban Cincinnati, said his proposal to a California woman is off because neither one wanted to relocate. Mueller proposed to Christena Ferran, of San Diego, on the Aug. 11 episode after his four grown children selected her to become his wife.

"We agreed mutually that neither of us would relocate," said Mueller, 48, owner of a map printing business in Fairfield. "She has two kids in high school, a junior and a sophomore, and their dad is a very active part of their life. I can't leave the company I founded 25 years ago, and my grandson is here."

Ferran, in her early 40s, didn't want to uproot her daughters from California, where she's active with charities and as a champion Arabian horse rider.

Mueller met last weekend with Ferran in San Diego. It was the first time he had visited her home, and only the sixth time they had been together since the engagement ceremony was taped in late May.

While in California, Mueller visited with his daughter Heidi, 21, and son Chris, 22, in Los Angeles. Heidi makes her acting debut Oct. 24 on NBC's "Passions" drama. Chris went to Los Angeles to pursue modeling and acting.

Mueller said one of the reasons he agreed to the show was that it allowed him time to visit with his children in California.

"The honest reason I did it was so I could spend three weeks of my life with my kids as adults," he said. "I knew it would never happen again."

WTF?

Why did this chick even try out for the show when her life is obviously cemented and, unless the guy lived near, she wouldn't change it? Is it only about wanting to be on TV?

And he agreed to do the show to spend time with his kids? Geez. Try explaining that to any of the women who emotionally invested in the experience. Can't this family vacation together as opposed to creating a huge farce and inconvenience for so many people?

Ok....what? I don't understand this? Didn't they question the woman about relocating? And why not pick someone that lived in the vicinity? I don't get it...what a waste for everyone involved:(

Don and Cristena broke up. They were on the John Walsh show last week via satellite/telephone. They sort of implied the distance (and perhaps, her kids) were the problem.

While looking at the nbc website today, I noticed they have a big ad for applicants for Who Wants to Marry My Dad 2. Don't know when it's scheduled to be on.

Oh...well, even though the first one didn't work out....now they have the logistics worked out a little better, I'm hoping this show returns.

I liked Don, he was very personable, so I'm sure he had no problem finding someone on his own.

On Monday, June 14, "Who Wants to Marry My Dad?" returns
with a relatively restrained one-hour premiere introducing the latest group
of three adult daughters looking to pimp their father out to one of 13
single women over the course of six episodes. The "secrets tasks" and lie
detector tests will return.
