What happened to Emily Maynard and Jef Holm?

Maynard described the decision as difficult and heartbreaking, saying they were at different points in their lives; Holm said they had tried hard to make the relationship work. ABC News reported their statements at the time.

What did Emily Maynard do after The Bachelorette?

In 2016, Maynard published I Said Yes: My Story of Heartbreak, Redemption and True Love, a memoir about her personal experiences. In an ABC News interview, she reflected that she would not change having appeared on the shows because she might not otherwise have met Johnson. The interview discusses the book and her life at the time.

Looking back on her season, Bachelor Nation quoted Maynard saying she wanted a family, a husband, and to be a wife. That was her stated hope in 2012—not a guarantee of what would happen. The retrospective revisits her Season 8 story.
