So Apparently Two Ex-Bachelors Were Approached To Go On ‘MAFS’

If you thought you’d never have to hear about The Bachelors’ original trio of Thomas Malucelli, Jed McIntosh and Felix Von Hofe, sadly, you’re wrong. The latest So Dramatic! episode revealed some pretty spicy rumours about The Bachelors and Married at First Sight, and it’s not all good news. 

According to the podcast, producers approached both Thomas and Jed to take part in MAFS Season 11. Tbh, I can’t think of anything worse. 

Rumour has it that neither Bachy star wanted to join the televised experiment, so hopefully we’re safe for now. “They told friends they weren’t too keen on the idea but you just never know,” the source claimed.

The podcast also spilled that a potential Bachelors star Ben Walters was lured over to MAFS instead. 

How did this info come to light? It’s pretty embarrassing, as the wannabe reality TV star has been “claiming to anyone who will listen that he was hand-picked for The Bachelors but didn’t make the cut… now he’s telling people MAFS producers are back in touch with him for [the next] season.”

The aspiring influencer has a profile on theright.fit – an agency for models, actors, and influencers – and yep, it looks like he’s pretty keen on getting famous. His bio says he’d be an “excellent presenter, extra or even actor”, using the fact that he was shortlisted for MAFS in 2022 and 2023 as a key skill.

I’m sorry, but that’s like listing all the places that didn’t hire you on your CV. I’m baffled.  

After doing a bit more digging, we found his Facebook profile, and he’s asked if anybody would want to go on a trip overseas in his place, as he’s ~suddenly~ going to be busy. The holiday dates happen to be when MAFS Season 11 is filming, so is this fame seeker finally getting lucky? It certainly seems that way.
