April Marie is aware that some viewers of “The Ultimatum” may raise an eyebrow at her choice to participate in the reality dating experience at just 23 years old. “At a very early age, I was in a longterm relationship. I’ve always just been infatuated with being a mom and being a wife and just having this family that I can look after and be protective of,” April says of presenting boyfriend Jake Cunningham with an ultimatum to marry or move on. “I was just like, ‘What are we here for? Where’s this relationship going? I don’t want to waste my time. Let’s get married.’” During the choice ceremony which saw two unexpected proposals, April paired up with Colby Kissinger, while Jake chose Rae Williams.
