After her time on The Bachelor, Melissa Rycroft reconnected with Tye Strickland - and the couple have been going strong ever since. Rycroft and Strickland met at a mutual friend's party in 2006. The twosome dated on and off before Rycroft starred on season 13 of the ABC dating show. During the finale - which aired in March 2009 - Rycroft got engaged to Bachelor Jason Mesnick. However, during the After the Final Rose special, Mesnick ultimately broke up with Rycroft to pursue runner-up Molly Malaney, whom he later married in 2010.
