Arie, a 36-year-old pro racing driver from Scottsdale, AZ, is nearing the end of his journey to find love on The Bachelor.

In the next The Bachelor episode on February 19, Arie will be visiting the hometowns of his Final 4 bachelorettes: Lauren Burnham, Tia Booth, Kendall Long, and Becca Kufrin.

These ladies will introduce Arie to their families and hopefully receive a rose, which would advance them to Arie's overnight Fantasy Suite dates.

So which bachelorettes survive those two rounds, and then who makes it to the end of the season?

Arie said he fell in love with two women on The Bachelor's 22nd season, and according to Reality Steve spoiler blogger Steve Carbone, he got engaged!

Arie allegedly popped the question at the final Rose Ceremony filmed in Cusco, Peru late last year.

The woman who received Arie's final rose as well as a Neil Lane diamond engagement ring?

Carbone says the winner is Becca, a 27-year-old publicist from Minneapolis, MN.

And the bachelorette who allegedly finished in second place was Lauren, a 25-year-old technology salesperson from Dallas, TX.

While fans would probably assume Arie continued dating Becca after the show and they are still together, that's not actually the case!

Carbone claims that Arie second-guessed himself after proposing to Becca and ultimately determined that he had made a mistake.

Sound familiar? Arie reportedly pulled a Mesnick.

Former The Bachelor star Jason Mesnick dumped his winner and fiancee, Melissa Rycroft, during his season's After the Final Rose. He then begged his runner-up, Molly Malaney, to take him back, and she did! Jason and Molly are now happily married with children.

Arie, however, allegedly dumped Becca and reunited with Lauren already, so he will appear on After the Final Rose in March with Lauren at his side.

Arie made these decisions as The Bachelor season was airing, and both his breakup and reconciliation were filmed by ABC cameras, so his finale is expected to be a doozy.

So how did all of this go down?

Carbone says Arie had doubts about his engagement to Becca between the time taping wrapped in mid-November and The Bachelor premiered on January 1, 2018.

Arie allegedly called Lauren on the night of the premiere and then a source told Carbone on January 16 that "Arie broke up with Becca" and was "heading to Virginia to film."

Virginia is where Lauren's mother currently resides, so Lauren must have been visiting at the time. A photo also surfaced hours after Carbone received the tip of ABC vans parked outside of the mother's house. 

"This is what happened. It's not wrong... If you honestly think I'm reporting this based off a hunch, or some wishful thinking, or something to stir the pot, then you don't know how I function," Carbone wrote in his blog.

Carbone said that although Arie "whined" about not being in love for five years since Emily Maynard and got engaged on the show, he "couldn't give it more than two months" with Becca.

"The guy who's now a matured man and is 'not looking for someone to date, is looking for my wife,' couldn't give it more than TWO MONTHS," Carbone added.

Becca actually had a surprise visitor on The Bachelor ahead of the final Rose Ceremony. Her ex of about seven years showed up begging to get her back. This man also allegedly proposed marriage to Becca but she chose Arie instead -- only to have her heart broken weeks later.

Now let's dive in to what happens from this point forward on The Bachelor, starting with Monday night's new episode airing at 8PM ET/PT on ABC.

"Meeting the families was even more stressful and dramatic than I anticipated," Arie teased in his People blog.

"You'll see people question my past, my intentions and my character. I'm forced to confront rumors and try to win people over who don't want me dating their daughter."

Arie will travel to Los Angeles first for Kendall, an analytical and unconventional bachelorette, and he'll experience "one of most bizarre dates in Bachelor history" with her according to ABC.

Arie will then head to Weiner, AR, for Tia's date. After spending time with the feisty southern belle's family, Arie will travel to Prior Lake, MN, for Becca and meet her "no-nonsense midwestern family."

And the last hometown date, according to the network, will be in Virginia Beach, VA, where Lauren's intimidating family has some questions for Arie.

ABC says Arie's hometown date with Lauren will be his "biggest test yet" of the season because her parents of very skeptical of his intentions and motives.

At the subsequent Rose Ceremony in Los Angeles, ABC teases that, "[Arie] can imagine each woman as his wife. He has no idea who he will let go. After finally gathering his nerve, he does something totally unexpected, leaving one woman shocked and devastated. Her heartbreak forces him to re-examine his decision."

According to Carbone, Arie will let Tia go after the round of hometown dates, and Arie admitted in his blog it was "one of the single hardest decisions" of his entire life.

After Arie and his remaining bachelorettes travel to Ica, Peru for the overnight Fantasy Suite dates, Arie will allegedly send Kendall packing -- setting up a Final 2 featuring Becca vs. Lauren.

Arie will have one more date with Becca and Lauren before making his final decision in Peru.

- Becca Kufrin, a 27-year-old publicist from Minneapolis, MN
