The Golden Bachelor‘s debut run in Australia has finally wrapped up, with Barry “Bear” Myrden picking his partner.
The series finale, which aired on Sunday, November 16, saw Bear choose Sunny Long as his perfect match in an emotional moment.
But fans have been left wondering whether The Golden Bachelor will return for a second series, to give another lucky golden bachelor a second chance at true love.
Scroll on for everything we know about the Channel Nine show’s renewal.
Will there be a Golden Bachelor Australia series two?
While Channel Nine has not yet officially confirmed The Golden Bachelor‘s renewal, things are looking promising so far.
The network is on the hunt for another bachelor in their 50s or 60s to lead a second series, as well as any women who want the chance to find love.
“Season two of The Golden Bachelor is now casting,” the online application reads.
“Are you in your 50s or 60s and looking for love in your golden years? Or do you know someone who deserves another shot at their happily ever after?
“We are looking for Australia’s next Golden Bachelor and many incredible women who are excited to find love again. Join us today for an adventure of a lifetime!”
All signs are pointing towards a second series, as long as they can find their all-important leading man to become the next face of the show.
Will there be a Golden Bachelorette Australia?
In previous years, former contestants of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette have gone on to become stars of the show in future series.
And transformation coach Jan, who was one of the 20 women vying for Bear’s heart on series one, might be interested in returning to the franchise.
“Whether she’s tapped to become The Golden Bachelorette or launches her own TV show about helping Australians over 50 live stronger, longer lives, there is a massive audience waiting for this kind of storytelling,” a source told Yahoo! Lifestyle.
She has already signed up with talent agency DL COMMS, so it appears she is open to more TV opportunities in the future.
Channel Nine has not yet confirmed if there will be a Golden Bachelorette Down Under, but host Samantha Armytage hinted it has not been ruled out.
“As we say with this show, you don’t know what the future holds,” she recently teased.
“So I think let’s just get The Golden Bachelor’s inaugural Australian season to air and see how that goes, but I think there is a bright future ahead for this show.”
When will The Golden Bachelor Australia season two air?
With casting still underway and the show’s renewal yet to be officially announced, fans might be waiting quite some time for more news.
It is not known whether a second series will come to air in 2026, or if viewers will be waiting even longer for its return.
But the entire first series is available to watch on 9Now.
