Yep, I watched it. I also liked the blonde better myself. But I had a gut feeling since day one that Helene seemed to be a better match for him. I think the age difference did play alot into his decisions. And maybe he was looking for a stronger version- like Helene sort seemed like she didn't give to his every whim and had her own opinions rather than Brooke who was more the type to stand by and support everything he needed or wanted. Neither necessairly bad traits but maybe he liked the one over the other himself.

I do have to say that I loved the flowers in Helene's hair and her dress was gorgeous. I didn't really care for Brookes final do though.
