Attributions (Quoted Comments)
On the actual difficulty of choosing the final bachelorette: “I decided about two hours before the final Rose Ceremony and it was obviously a very difficult decision because I had strong feelings for both Jen and Sadie.” [Quoted by Deanna Couras Goodson, Suite 101]
Borghese’s primary language is English. He speaks a minimal bit of Italian, saying that this is because when he was young and developing a stutter, the doctors told his parents to speak only English [According to TV.com] to him.
