I just read the release again, and it says nothing of Brad meeting anybody older than Ricki. Either they are building the drama of will he/won't he meet Rickki and think caps/talk of adults would detract from that, or he does just meet Ricki.

a bunch of bogus drama.......
Brad's final hometown date is with Emily in Charlotte, North Carolina. This sensitive single mom must figure out if she is comfortable enough to introduce Brad to her daughter, who has never met a man she has dated. Will she be able to take this crucial step, and how will it affect her romance with Brad?

Yes, I know there was Melissa, and I can see what you're saying about Ricki being her family, which is true. I thought Emily's parents lived in WV, well I know that's were they were from. I guess I just hear Brad emphasising "family being so important", I would think he'd want to meet her parents.

Meridith never met Ians parents either.. Only his brother & he was F1
Ian came from wealth & did not want his family on TV in Brazil.

I think that this situation is different.
Above anything, Em seems to want her daughter to feel comfortable with her "love" interest. We heard her say that if Ricki doesn't approve, it'll essentially kill the beast.
Emily, not her parents, has to decide if she wants Brad around and active in Ricki's life. It's also just as much about Brad being ready to take on this responsibility and being a dad as it's about him meshing with the in-laws.
In real life, I could see this scenario--just meeting the child--happening before parents were met.
Max, I think that the "family" they might be emphasizing here is the one that might form between Brad, Emily, and Ricki. If he picks Emily, then I fully expect him to meet all the necessary parents very soon![]()

Come to think of it, were there any previews of any of the parents?
Will he have another chance to meet Emily's parents before the FRC? He has said he wouldn't propose to a woman without first asking her father's permission. Even flying them in on FRC day doesn't sound like something that would be kosher in Brad's mind.
This all just lends credence IMO to the notion that Emily never had any intention of being F1.
