An Aaron Martell posted this 3 yrs ago under a BMX stunt rider video shot in Sydney Cape Breton:

Dude, that was awesome...good stuff!!

This blurb was in a paper about a fundraiser:

The 2007 Ride 4 The Cure started with Friday night late registration and social at the Membertou trade and Convention Centre. The evening’s musical entertainment was a big hit provided by Aaron Martel followed by Mark MacIntyre.

nanab, the school information is right, but the Aaron Martell in the videos is not the right one. I found his myspace page and he is married with kids from California.

[Brill]

I am guessing that if Aaron is from Canada then he will be gone early. If the guy's business can not be moved Emily will not move to Canada. She may move to Africa for love but I am betting she won't go north to Canada.

[Love_Me]

Kind of a cross between Brad and Kiptyn.

BINGO!! He is a cutie!!

Doug does remind me a lot of Brad. As you can see from my screen name, I think that's a really good thing. I hope he really is one of the 25 guys. It would be intersting to see if Emily likes him.

bradfan!

[n4692u]

I think Emily said she would move to Africa if she was in love. Seattle is much, much closer.

If Doug is the F1, Emily and Doug can double date with Chantal and her guy....

Now that would be interesting!!!

I posted these comments tongue in cheek... I also really feel for Brad. I have no idea how in love with Brad Emily really was but it was pretty obvious that
Brad was over the moon in love for her.
I hope he does not watch because I am sure it will be tough.

Oh yea, Brad will watch. TV Guide asked Emily if she was still friends with her ex, Brad Womack and she said "Oh yeah, he's really supportive and excited for me."
Now he might be just putting on a brave face and will really hate every second of it. On the other hand, he could be completely over her and really sincere about his support for her. I hope that's the case, because I don't want him to be hurt over it. The only good thing about him still having feelings for em would be that he would get a dose of the medicine that Emily got watching him make out with all the women on his season. We all know that was bitter medicine for Em at the time. She told People mag that after the ATFR, she never brought up the show to him again.

BTW, I love this guy, Doug Clerget. Just from what we've learned, he seems perfect for her. I'm anxious to see if he's divorced or widowed. He doesn't seem like the guy who wouldn't marry the mother of his child, so I'm not even entertaining that option. Oh yea, someone tweeted Wes & Prima Womack the article about Doug which is on WetPaint.com. There is a hot pic of Doug, and the tweeter asked them if that guy looked familiar, maybe a cousin of theres!

[n4692u]

I am getting a really good vibe about this guy. I hope it is true that he is one of Emily's bachelors. He could be a keeper.

Same here bing! :Nod:

Physically, I think he's the cutest of the bunch so far, too. He's very close to Brad in physical traits. But geeze louise, he lives in Seattle, Washington.. doesn't he? Do you think Emily would relocate there? Hmmmm... I dunno.

I doubt Emily is moving... UNLESS she gets married. So I would guess that if she comes out of this with a fiance... the courtship would have to take place in Charlotte.

The timing of her season will make it a good time to move immediately. Filming ends in May and the finale airs on 7/30/12, if I'm not mistaken. She could move immediately and enroll Ricki in school in her new city. With Brad, the finale aired 3/14/11 and Ricki had about 2-1/2 months left of school and it wouldn't have been wise to pull her out of school with that short time left of the school year. She was getting ready to move after her last trip to Austin in May. She tweeted about cleaning out her house and going through Ricki's toys and throwing away the ones she hadn't played with in a long time. Before she could move, she & Brad had another blow up, so that made her insecure about jerking Ricki up & moving. I just don't think Emily will hesitate to move if she and the guy are in love and she is secure in that relationship.

Brad will watch. TV Guide asked Emily if she was still friends with her ex, Brad Womack and she said "Oh yeah, he's really supportive and excited for me."

Was this interview in the new TV Guide Magazine or is it also available online? Thanks.
