Reason for wanting to visit the contestant:   I have heard through the proverbial grapevine that Lizzie has not been "putting herself out there" enough. Lizzie has always been more concerned with cerebral matters, than with matters of appearance. However, if she is to win a husband-- which one assumes to be the grand prize of this contest-- she will need to spruce herself up. My daughter has a lovely face and figure, if I may be so bold. She obviously takes after her mother. If she would just put on some makeup and fix up her hair-- and put on a dress, instead of those dreadful yoga pants-- she would look so much better.

What have you been doing while the contestant has been away?:   Well, planning the wedding, of course! To whichever young man who ends up with my Lizzie. I've already chosen her colors-- lavender and green. Of course, Lizzie herself will wear pure white. And I won't allow her to wear one of those silly strapless mermaid gowns. She's going to look like a lady.

Would you ever sign up for a dating completion yourself?:    My goodness no! I'm a married woman! Although, if anything were to happen to my dear Mr. Bennett, I would have to attract a new mate. Just thinking about it puts my poor nerves on edge. However, since I am considerably younger than my husband, and have retained my youthful looks, I believe I would make a very worthy contestant on such a show.
