While speaking to Breakfast Television , Jenn states that she’s never dated a Canadian before the show. But it sounds like she may end up with one, giving viewers clues that she doesn’t choose Sam in the end . “I definitely would say that dating a Canadian man, they’re way sweeter, and they’re way more in tune with their emotions than most American men that I’ve dated,” Jenn said.
