FINALLY.

They’re both genetically blessed and Bachelor alumni, which is why it’s not a stretch to suggest that Adam Todd and Bella Varelis would make a *very* cute couple. But it seems we may be waiting a while for the pair to seal the deal.

Speaking to The Wash over the weekend, the handsome geologist (who recently starred on Elly and Becky’s season of The Bachelorette) admitted that he and the brunette beauty are yet to hang out one-on-one.

When asked by the publication how Bella was going, he responded: “I don’t know.”

“I’ve only seen her a few times – she’s very nice,” he added. “We’ve been out together with the rest of the group.”

Earlier this month, the 24-year-old was snapped getting handsy with Bella at the Beach Road Hotel in Bondi. The pair were all smiles as they shared a hug and laughed along with several of this year’s Bachelor and Bachelorette contestants.

In the mix were some of the ladies vying after Locky Gilbert’s heart, including Bec Cvilikas, Nicole Campbell, Bel Colwell and Leilani Vakaahi. Adam’s fellow Bachelorette co-stars Shannon Karaka and Pascal Wallace were also in attendance, along with 2019’s Bachelor star Emma Roche.

The boozy night out came shortly after Adam hinted that Bella, 26, had been messaging him on social media on an episode of The Project.

“There might’ve been a little bit of sliding into the DM’s,” he said, when host Peter Helliar asked if Bella had been in touch.

Adding fuel to the speculation, the hunk has recently moved from Perth to Sydney, where Bella is currently living.

Meanwhile, the marketing executive has proved she’s well and truly over Locky, unleashing on him and his new girlfriend Irena Srbinovska in an Instagram Q&A.

“I don’t regret anything. At the end of the day everything happens for a reason. I’m actually really grateful that Locky dumped me,” she said.

“Locky was just a big lesson for me. It was just the universe telling me this human isn’t my human, and it wasn’t meant to be my happily ever after, but it’ll happen.”

She also remarked that if the tables were turned and she found out he said he loved Irena and picked her, she’d be unlikely to stay with him.

“It’s hard to give an answer for a situation that you’re not in. Would I stay in a relationship knowing that he loved someone else? I’m not sure, that’s a hard question.”
