We’re still a few months away from The Bachelor Australia making its long awaited return into our living rooms, but there’s already controversy brewing.

One of the contestants has spilled the beans on what she thinks of the new Bachelor, Richie Strahan – and she’s made it pretty damn clear that she’s not a fan… HOW DARE SHE!

In a candid interview aired on The Kyle & Jackie O Show, the contestant known as Laura acquainted with the show’s entertainment reporter at a function and agreed to have an ‘on-the-record’ chat after “a few glasses of champagne”.

When she was asked about if she was a fan of our boy Richie’s devilish handsomeness, she replied;

“Completely no, that’s a no from me,”

Claiming to be disappointed about having a former Bachelorette contestant as the leading man in 2016, she stated that she “was hoping for some bloody fresh talent.”

Laura also dropped a claim that there were a few contestants in the upcoming series that would confirm that strawberry blonde Richie’s ‘carpet matched the drapes’ – “I can probably tell you that it’s a yes, and it’s a yes from a few reports.”

After the interview aired, Kyle & Jackie O both claimed that Laura (if that is your real name) must have been booted out of the show pretty quickly if she was already agreeing to do interviews. We think she might just be in imposter looking for a lil’ bit of fame – just like ‘Chk Chk Boom’ girl!
