'The Bachelor' 2016 winner, finale spoilers: Future Mrs. Higgins revealed early; details here

Ben prepares to lay out his decision that will change his life forever in "The Bachelor" 2016 finale. ABC

On this day, Ben Higgins's time as a single man will finally come to an end as the hunky software salesman finally chooses his bride-to-be between Lauren Bushnell and JoJo Fletcher in "The Bachelor" 2016 finale.

Ben has told both these women that he loved them, briefly giving them both an assurance that they will receive the final rose until he confessed to them that he told the L-word to the other as well. Now, the bachelor is in a difficult position.

The 27-year-old knows that he will leave one of these special ladies extremely heartbroken in "The Bachelor" 2016 finale and he can't bear the thought of that. But it looks like Ben will eventually be able to make a choice and Reality Steve knows who it is.

[Spoiler Alert! The following contains details on the "The Bachelor" 2016 finale results] The prolific "The Bachelor" tipster is confident that it is Lauren Bushnell that he picks in the end. Reality Steve has already said this on his website but also told NPR in a recent interview.

"Ben is engaged to Lauren," Reality Steve said during the chat. Ben also confirmed to "Good Morning America" early this month that he is still engaged, which means he and Lauren are still going strong way beyond what is believed to be an emotional and drama-filled "The Bachelor" 2016 finale.

Reality Steve has an impressive track record when it comes to forecasting the finales for both "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette." His confidence about this season's winner suggests that Ben indeed went for Lauren.

Lauren has also been a consistent frontrunner in "The Bachelor" 2016. Many believe that Ben has fallen head over heels for her since day one and that their chemistry as a couple is undeniable.

But while it is said that Ben and Lauren are still together, there are already rumors flying about that Ben's persistent feelings for JoJo get in the way of their relationship. Of course, these reports are to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Judging by how happy Ben was in revealing to "Good Morning America" that he is engaged, it looks like the bachelor-no-more is happy how it all turned for him after "The Bachelor" 2016 finale. However, it was a tearful moment for him having to lay down his decision.

"The Bachelor" 2016 finale airs today, March 14 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
