Fletcher was the star of season 12 of High school. She got along with Rodgers quickly and gave him the first impression of rose.
The season ended with them committing to a Neil Lane ring. They are still engaged, but Rodgers again proposed with a different ring. He posted a photo of his ring on Instagram with the caption:
Yesterday Jordan asked me to marry him … again! I didn’t see it coming or expected it … I can’t express in words how much it meant to me @ jrodgers11 … but I think by now you know I’m crying hysterically and totally passed out. The show brought us together and set us up for a truly amazing proposition the first time, but this time it was ALL YOU. And that means everything and more to me. I can not wait to marry you! Thank you for loving me so purely and protecting my heart in a way that I always prayed for.

The couple admitted to having difficulties in their first year after the show. They told Entertainment Tonight that he had multiple fights and bad plots.
“You never have conflicts on the show. You really don’t. He may have a little and … but he never learns to fight, “Rodgers explained.” And anyone in a relationship knows that you need to know how to navigate the relationship conflict. We didn’t know how to do that, and we were in different worlds of how do we handle that. “
Fletcher explained how things changed between them. “It was just that conscious decision every time we got into an argument, taking a step back and, yes, we love each other, but we must also respect each other,” he said. “To this day … nothing is perfect! There are times when we will discuss or discuss something and we will think, ‘OK, this is where we should take a moment.’ It will always be work, and I think that is what makes relationships last. “
It seems that the couple had to figure out how to make things work. Fans will have to keep waiting to see them get married.
