The Bachelor Australia has delivered up spades of drama.
And it’s only the second episode.
Matt Agnew gave his first rose (and we think heart) to Elly.
Watch the moment he properly falls in love with her!
The 24-year-old, who holds the golden ticket, is clearly a real contender…
But it turns out she has more competition.
Sogand is sitting in a pretty spot after she scored the first date… AND KISS.
But that’s not enough
Matt Agnew still hasn’t met all the girls vying for his heart.
The Bachelor Australia is bringing in 8 intruders.
And it seems like the girls are not happy!
WATCH THEM FREAK OUT BELOW
Elly lays some hard truths: “So, at this point, there’s definitely a bit of anxiety and stress in the air. We’re all starting to realise that we’re gonna be watching these new girls walk in and meet Matt for the first time. It’s gonna be like the worst movie we’ve ever seen. It’s a horror story.”
Meanwhile, Matt is stressed.
“I’m stood on the new red carpet. I’m about to meet all eight new women.I don’t know who’s in the most precarious position. The new girls coming in, the original girls watching on, or myself kind of in the middle of all of this. “
Danush, 34, Chartered Accountant, VIC

She might be witty, intelligent and stunning, but Danush says she’s long been unlucky in love.
“I focused a lot on my career and my studies. I haven’t met the right guy at the right time,” she said. “But I’ve watched this show work for some people and thought, ‘Why couldn’t it work for me?’ Hopefully, the timing is right now.”
Jess, 30, Makeup Artist, VIC

Sarcastic, sassy and outspoken, Jess says her ideal man would be someone who’s “driven and independent but also loving, romantic and kind”.
Perhaps the juiciest dating story we’ve heard to date comes from the makeup artist who recently revealed: “I once went to get a drink and came back to find my date kissing another girl.”
Julia, 28, Children’s Entertainer, NSW

The 28-year-old children’s entertainer— who’s been single for six years—describes herself as driven, creative, loyal, authentic and emotional.
“It’s about time I go on a date,” she said, before revealing her ideal date would be a picnic under the stars!
Monique, 26, Fashion Designer, NSW

The blonde fashion designer says she’s only had one relationship in the past, and was left heartbroken when she discovered her high school sweetheart was cheating on her. Now she’s hoping to find a “tall, tanned and blue-eyed beach babe” but says she has “no idea what to expect” from the show.
Nikki, 24, Student, NSW

She’s bubbly, self deprecating and sarcastic, but Nikki says there are a couple of traits that might make Matt Agnew run in the other direction!
“Aside from my man voice, maybe my dodgy fake tan when it is due for a revamp and I look like a tiger loaf that has been sitting on a Woolworths shelf for 45 years.”
Renee, 25, Health Care Coordinator, NT

With a passion for motocross and spearfishing, Renee is hoping to meet a man who loves the outdoors. And when it comes to the perfect date, she says she likes to keep it low key.
“Take me to a beach to watch the sunset with a good wine and cheese platter.”
Sam, 29, Public Servant, VIC
Instagram: @samroyceee
“I’m just planning to be myself and hopefully Matt likes authentic, down-to-earth girls,” the public servant says of her strategy for the show.
Her deal breaker’s include arrogance and someone who “smothers” her!
Tara, 25, Nurse, VIC
Instagram: @taraamaree
It’s been two years since Tara says she felt a connection with another person, admitting, “I feel like dating these days is predominantly done using mobile phone/apps and I just find it so impersonal,” she said.
She’s “looking for someone who is genuine and honest, who knows what they want in life”.
