'Bachelor' Jason: 'I'm Really Sorry'

"The Bachelor's" Jason Mesnick revealed to Mario Lopez, "I am really sorry for what I did as far as having a a public breakup with Melissa on camera. I feel horrible about it." The single dad sat down for an interview with his new love Molly Malaney. Jason tells Mario, "If I could go back and do it again, I would not do it... but I take full responsibility."

Did Melissa Rycroft know before Jason broke up with her on national T.V. that Molly was the reason for their split? Jason says, "She [Melissa] asked me flat out if Molly had something to do with this and I said, 'Yes.'"

The happy couple truly is happy. Jason and Molly held hands while walking through "Extra's" studio. They also kissed and cuddled during their appearance.

Molly was ready to respond to the backlash she's received for her decision to take Jason back after he picked Melissa over her. "We did not get back together right away... We had a lot of serious discussions about what happened... I was never angry with Jason when I left New Zealand." Now Molly believes Jason is her true love, "I found the person I want to spend the rest of my life with."

The 24-year-old department store buyer had a message for Melissa. Molly said, "Melissa, I think you are one of the most incredible people I have ever met and we did have a good relationship on the show, the circumstances are very unfortunate but I wish you only the best."

The couple's full interview airs on "Extra" on Friday and Monday, March 9. Tune in to "Extra" on Monday for Jason's message for his former fiancée Melissa!

Jason and Molly, I hope you see this post. I am proud of you both. Molly, you are so nice to Jason and Jason is like my son and grandsons. We have a great time together. It would be great to sit down to dinner with you. I give you, Molly and Tye hugs and my love. Stay together. You will go thru many phases in life. My husband and I will soon be married 63 years and the love of God will always keep you together if you know Him, you will know the truth that sets you free.

As Bachelor creator Mike Fleiss tells PEOPLE, “That’s patently untrue. It was [Jason’s] choice in New Zealand who he proposed to.” But after the show wrapped, Fleiss says, “HE WAS NOT IN LOVE WITH MELISSA ANYMORE and he was in love with Molly and he needed to make a change.”

Hey Bette, Melissa has moved on. Now she is doing DWTS and she is going places thanks to Jason dumping her.

Melissa is the type of woman that doesn’t hold grudges, she kindly accepted Jason’s apology.

Now it is time FOR JASON TO MOVE ON, HE IS THE ONE THAT WANTS TO BE FRIENDS WITH MELISSA. He now has Molly and she should be Jasons’ friend, not Melissa.

Jason should leave well alone and leave Melissa alone. He is the one reaching out to Melissa. She has her life to lead and doesn’t need Jason as a Friend.

Melissa has moved on nicely and she has a good head on her shoulders. She is going somewhere in life and I am extremely happy for Melissa.

Jason, don’t worry about what others
say. It’s your life & you had the right
to change your mind. Melissa should act
like a grown up & take it like you did
when you were dumpted. It’s always ok
for a man to get dumpted but everyone
get too emotional when it’s a women.
Melissa GET OVER IT. Bette

Melissa “waltzed” her way into America’s hearts after being betrayed by bachelor Jason Mesnick on the most shocking and talked about season finale ever of ABC’s The Bachelor. With an outpouring of support and affection from viewers across America, a dignified Melissa has personified the courage to move on. Her journey continues as a participant on season eight of Dancing with the Stars, valiantly stepping in with less than a week to train when two celebrities were forced to withdraw due to injuries. She teams with Tony Dovolani, who returns for his seventh season

Jason and Molly deserve each other. They both lack integrity and class.

I’m a ‘Bachelor’ fan and have watched all the shows. This one was different though because a child was involved. I didn’t see him as ‘parading’ this son, to me, he wanted to make sure that whomever he selected meshed with his child. It is unfortunate however, that the Producers insisted that their breakup be ‘shown’. I felt awful for Melissa! I’m soooo glad that Melissa joined ‘Dancing with the Stars”. I think that it will be a real boost for her in many ways. At least Molly got the ‘love of her life’. And, as always , I will continue to watch the new “Bachelorette” come May. c.

Why doesn’t everyone just get over the hate already? Jason made a mistake…he admitted it and is moving on…why doesn’t everyone else just move on and see where this goes…looks like Melissa is doing very well, she is on Dancing with the Stars and making a name for herself and come on people….are we all forgetting she knew they were breaking up before the show?????????

Jason and Molly are has beens, they are history, I wish they would just drop off the face of this earth, anywhere, any planet I don’t care.

Melissa is going places, she is a darling of a girl. And she has alot of celebrities that are on her corner. Jason does not, he is desparately trying to be in the limelight. What good can he bring to the limelight? NOTHING, ABOLUTELY NOTHING.

It’s too late for you Jason, you got what you bargained for and now you are stuck with her. You need to leave Melissa alone, you said you want to be friends with Melissa. You already have your friend, Molly. Do you want Melissa as a backup in case it doesn’t work out between you and Molly? With friends like you, who needs enemies?

Jason, you are washed up, and has been. Melissa has it going on thanks to you Jason. Now you want to be her friend? sorry charlie to late for that, you don’t do your friends dirty or do you?

Time to put the Bachelor (Jason n Molly) behind us and move on they all have. It gets to be a bit much hearing it over and over again.
I wish everyone all the best.

The problem wasn’t the break up ,a lot of couples on the bachelor have broken up .The problem was that he showed not an ounce of respect and sensitivety towards Melissa’s feelings by airing the break up live on TV publicly humiliating her.
If I were Molly I would think hard about what kind of man would do a thing like that .
He was so histrionic in his display of tears and emotion on the show he came across to me as a sociopath .He turned on and off the tears like a faucet and it did’t look genuine at all .
I married and divorced such a man who appeared so charasmatic to other people while privately he loved and cared about only one person and that was himself and he acted just like Jason turning on and off his emotions publicaly and when it came to doing what he wanted to do he disreguarded anyone elses feelings as long as he got what he wanted in the end.He was incapable of feeling remorse for hurting other people .
Look out Molly because Jason really acts like someone incapable of feeling any true emotions towards anyone else .

Get real everyone,how many people break up everyday.Give the guy credit,no he didn’t have to do it on t.v.,but he did.To me that shows that he really loves Molly for dealing with the backlash.If it works out great,if not at least they both can say they followed their hearts & tried.Give them a chance

Molly is very stupid and desperate to take Jason back. Jason is desperate too. I give Molly and Jason one year then they will split up. He like to dumped his woman when hes done with her. He did it twice he will do it again. He is a confused man and selfish.

Jason is trying to clean up his tarnished image and promote his website. What he did to Melissa is worst than what deanna did to him. He cries too much like a woman. He’s not dumb, he is a conniving manipulator. Take a look at his website, he is trying to get it going and his tarnished image will get in his way. So will how he treated Melissa, that was so uncalled for, sucks to b u Jason.

Oh people get over it already! If you watched the show and everything that happened to Melissa you are just as guilty as Jason for breaking up on national television! He’s happy what’s it to the rest of the world if he made a mistake how he went about it? Melissa knew what she was getting herself into, just like all the other girls who were “dumped” who are we to judge what’s right or wrong for another individual?
