SPOILER for everyone either living under a rock or deliberately avoiding all mention of Br*an: Rachel sent Eric Bigger home on Monday night's finale of The Bachelorette.
ABC
The breakup was sad.
ABC
So sad!
ABC
REALLY, REALLY SAD.
ABC
But things got better. At that weird finale/"After The Final Rose" hybrid, Eric came out to see Rachel for the first time since their split, and can we just say..... DAAAAAAANG.
ABC
Not only did Eric look spiffy in his suit — which Rachel herself commented on — but can we also talk about this beard??
ABC
REMINDER: This is Eric at the beginning of the season...
ABC
And this is Eric now.
ABC
Even Rachel, who the whole season was like "Wait, who is Eric, again?" seemed enchanted by the alluring magic of the Beard.
ABC
DON'T WORRY, ERIC, WE NOTICED.

But let's talk about the real hero of the night: Eric's beard #TheBacheloretteFinale
Even people from the Bachelor Universe noticed.
Eric looking hot with a beard post breakup is the equivalent of girls changing their hair color post breakup. #TheBachelorette
In short, this is all of us on our way to Los Angeles to find Eric and console him.
ABC
