Byron and Mary - The New Thread

[jelle]

Perhaps they are doing just fine in private. No one can say whether Mary wants or really wanted kids, based on comments on The Bachelor, and I doubt anyone has any inside info if either or both of them have any desire to get married. They are still together after five years, so something must be working for them. You can get some updates on Byron's fishing blog. Something old, something new - ESPN

What am I?
I'm in Las Vegas with Mary — she's taking some well-deserved time off — practicing on Lake Mead for the U.S. Open next week

A Word from Mary
Mary Delgado here. I'm covering this week for Byron while he's fishing the Mississippi River. And I'll tell you I couldn't be happier that I'm doing it. It's a labor of love.
As most of you know, Byron has had three good events in a row and is now ranked 15th in the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year standings. That's way up from where he was earlier in the year, and, barring a complete disaster in the last two tournaments, it means we'll be returning to the Classic next February.

I think most of Byron's success is because he's now concentrating on his fishing like never before. It's been about three years since he bought Lake Amistad Resort and over one since he bought into the boat dealership down there. Those business deals really distracted him.

What I'm trying to say is that the more I'm around professional bass fishing and professional bass anglers, the more impressed I become. These guys have it tough. There's nothing easy about it. They have to juggle a lot of balls at the same time to be successful.

Byron has found a way to do that this year. I'm really proud of him — not so much because he's catching fish but because of how he's managing his career.

If I were Mary, I would get married first and only mention the very word afterwards. They have been engaged - what 4 years? - and they have told everyone they are going to get married every November of each year only to keep the exact same status.

If you all remember, Byron and Mary were guests along with Trista and Ryan on the ATFR after Brad Womack's season. I think she told CH they were getting married in November during the show. Ironically, that show was November 19, 2007, so we took it to mean they were getting married November 2008. Of course, that date has come and gone AGAIN! Personally, I don't think they will ever get married. They will remain "Life long partners" as I think Byron described her on his website. It used to say fiance. I haven't checked his website in a very long time, so it could have changed by now. Why should they get married now? Mary's clock has just about run out for bearing children. I think she is 41. I know women have kids after 40, but I don't see Mary doing that.

They were brought out after Brad's season but that is also the night that they had a fight, Mary clocked him and was arrested. They seem to have a rather volotile relationship at times ... Maybe marriage and/or being together isn't quite the best thing. LOL!

I think you are probably right!

yeah - that episode also included a visit from Trista, Ryan and baby Max - probably got Mary all riled up......

Just read at two websites that they are splitsville.

Not sure if I am allowed to mention where, but I am sure it will be all over the place soon enough.

After five years together, Season 6 Bachelor Byron Velvick and Mary Delgado have split, he confirms to Usmagazine

[Daphne7411]

Wow, well finally over. I don't know...I can't seem to count this as a Bachelor failure. They were together much longer than many married couples of the non-reality sort .

[Mike'sgirl]

Finally! Byron stayed with Mary Delgado much to long as far as I am concerned.
I dislike abusive relationships, and even when the woman is the one that is abusive, I still expect the partner to wise up and get out. Maybe, Delgado sought treatment, and he was giving her time.... but I am glad they never married and now are going separate ways.
