Theories about The Bachelorette Australia finale are buzzing around like fruit flies in mango season.
From Ali Oetjen picking Todd King, that sneaky photo of Taite Radley that points to him not winning – to speculation that she chucks a Honey Badger and picks no one.
But there could be another possibility:
Just maybe Ali Oetjen found love on The Bachelorette Australia… And then it just didn’t work out.
Holy Osher Gunsberg, we may have Sophie Monk and Stu Laundy case on our hands.
When last year’s Bachelorette finale aired, fans felt like Soph wasn’t truly happy.
There was their very awkward first “couple” interview on The Project and the fact they barely spent time together – it just wasn’t meant to be.
And there’s nothing wrong with a Bachie romance not working out – Plus Sophie is doing just fine and even has a new boyfriend.
That may be the case for Ali Oetjen.
WHO exclusively interviewed Ali in October, about a month after she filmed the ending of the show.
And she seemed smitten.
When we asked if she was in love, the blonde was contractually obliged to keep her lips sealed.
““I can’t say! You’ll have to wait and see!”
Laughing, she did gush, “I can tell you I’m so happy! I feel like I’m floating up in the clouds! I’m in a wonderful place.”
She added, ” I didn’t actually think I would be this happy.”
It’s been a month since then, and a lot can happen in 30 days.
It can’ be easy for either party to watch Ali’s romances play out on screen – plus the winner isn’t allowed to spend time with his girlfriend.
Distance can make the heart grow fonder, but in reality it can also break up a relationship.
Both Todd and Taite live in different states to Ali, but the 32-year-old told us back in October that she wouldn’t move.
“I’ve always done stuff to please my partner in my past, but this time around they can move for me!”
One day before the finale, New Idea were sent a scandalous snap showing front runner Todd King in Fiji – the location of Bachelor In Paradise – with fellow finalist Taite Radley.
“They were just sitting there on their phones the whole time,” reveals Marina, who snapped the duo on Tuesday November, 13.
“We thought they were waiting for their flight back to Sydney but they didn’t’ get on our plane,” she added.
The new image follows Ali’s comments on Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa’s radio show.
The 32-year-old laughed awkwardly when asked if she still keeps in contact with the show’s winner.
“You’ll have to wait and see if there’s a winner!”
Sportbet is prepared no matter the outcome.
