It turns out The Bachelor's Matt Agnew actually works at National Australia Bank

We've been lied to. - by Madi Spira
  • 06 Aug 2019

Fans of popular dating franchise were starry-eyed they discovered this year's Bachelor, Matt Agnew, was equal parts handsome and intelligent. However, in a shocking turn of events, it appears the 31-year-old doesn't work as an astrophysicist, instead, he pushes paper at National Australia Bank (NAB). 

According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Matt has been working as an analyst at NAB's Melbourne head office for the past three months on secondment. Strangely enough, his current day job isn't listed on his lengthy LinkedIn profile— Perhaps Network Ten is riding the "brainy" wave all the way to the finale?

Unfortunately, NAB wasn't prepared to confirm Matt's position, with a spokesperson for the bank claiming they keep their staff's information private.  

"We treat personal information about our employees and contractors as confidential," a spokeswoman said.  "Quantium do from time to time provide contractors to NAB."

Despite all of this, Matt— who's no doubt the most qualified Bachelor to join the series—still maintains he studies planetary science. 

"My specific research is about planetary science, so the stuff I’m doing is trying to figure out where another planet like Earth could exist, so we could actually look and find it," said Matt, who has a double undergraduate degree in science and engineering as well as a masters in astrophysics.

That's not the only juicy goss to come out about the Bachelor this week! 

After claiming he's only slept with a total of seven women, fans of the series were left scratching their head when a promo trailer dropped showing Matt kissing a record number of women while appearing on this season of the popular dating franchise. Since then, a source close to the devilishly handsome reality TV star has revealed to New Idea that he ends up having sex with one of the many women vying for his heart. But... wait for it... it's not the contestant he gives his final rose to! 

WATCH: MATT MAKE OUT WITH 17 GIRLS 

“Matt hits it off with quite a few of the girls, kissing the greatest number of contestants the show has ever seen," the insider spilled. "We’re also told that the handsome astrophysicist even beds one of them and it’s not the woman he ends up picking at the final rose ceremony!”

The surprising allegations come less than a week after Dr Agnew appeared on Kyle & Jackie O's radio program where he was grilled about all things pertaining to his sex life.

"How many women do you think you've slept with?" radio shock-jock Kyle Sandilands asked the sexy scientist.   

Stunned by the question Matt awkwardly replied, "Funnily enough this is a question on the application form, I'm not sure what the desired answer is either... Rough number... 7. I'm going to stick with that."

"That's a very little number," Kyle teased. 

"It's large enough for me, Kyle," he hit back.
