The Bachelorette Evictee Jake Has Backed Matty J As The Chosen One In Tonight’s Finale
Tonight’s the big night! In yesterday’s ep of The Bachelorette three became two, as Jake was given his marching orders. Our kween Georgia Love will be deciding between dark horse Matty J and fan-favourite Lee in the finale, and looks like freshly ousted bachy Jake reckons he can pick the winner.
In an interview with Woman’s Day, he told the magazine when asked who would win:
“It’s really hard! I’m as excited as the Australian viewers, I am looking forward to seeing who the lucky one is. It’s really hard to pick.
I am close with Matty J, we became close really early on. And Lee has such a big heart…. But I want Matty to win, he’s just a great guy!”
Does this really surprise us? Not so much. Jake has thrown shade at Lee in the past, even calling him out as “fake”. So, Matty would be the obvious choice for ol’ Jakey boy.
He went further in an interview with Popsugar to say, “I’m just as excited as the viewers to see who the lucky one that wins Georgia’s heart is. At the same time I’m going to be a bit jealous of whoever does win. But if I could pick it . . . I became really close with Matty,” he said.
“I consider him one of my really close friends. I want to see him happy so I’m hoping Matty takes it.”
If you ask us, we can’t even pick it!
