The Ultimatum: Jake Planned To Propose To April On Cruise Before Show
Jake Cunningham has revealed that before joining The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On, he had planned to propose to now ex-girlfriend April Melohn, on a cruise. The two joined the Netflix show because April desperately wanted Jake to propose to her. The star was ready to get married and start a family, but Jake had recently been released from the military and wanted more time to live his life and travel. To fans it seemed pretty obvious from the start that Jake and April would not end up together.

The finale episode and reunion confirmed this when Jake did not propose to April, and the two went their separate ways, barely interacting during the reunion.
