Felix Only Spent One Day With Winner Jessica After ‘The Bachelors’ Finale
Just when you thought the chaotic aftermath of The Bachelors had finally simmered down, Felix Von Hofe has crawled out of the woodwork to spill some major tea about his ill-fated relationship with winner Jessica Navin.
Appearing on the Kyle and Jackie O Show on Tuesday, the reality TV f**kboi dished all the goss on his failed romance with the 25-year-old Townsville local, admitting that he only spent one day with her throughout their two-month relationship after the show wrapped.
After Jackie O asked how often the pair saw one another after going official, Felix revealed, “We only got to see each other once. You get a rendezvous after the show where you get three days together, but we saw each other once after that.” Grim!
The revelation wasn’t the only juicy little nugget of info to come out of the wild chat, and tbh, there’s a lot to unpack. Let’s break it down, shall we?
On when Felix and Jess did the deed after the finale:
In a disappointing but not surprising move, Felix told Kyle Sandilands (and the rest of Australia) that he and Jess did, in fact, get down and dirty following the finale.
“Yeah we did,” he replied to the shock jock when asked if he and Jess had sex during their brief courtship.
“It was fantastic, we were compatible in that part, it was just a few things outside of that,” he added before joking that his penis looked like a finger. Charming.
On whether going long-distance was a major catalyst in the breakup:
“The long-distance stuff is always hard because I’m not a texter,” Felix explained as he elaborated on how the pair’s romance began to unravel.
“I’m shocking on the phone, I’m not really good at texting. I texted like a grandma with one word responses, it’s terrible.”
“That’s why I thought it was funny when they made me out to be this player sort of guy, because if you could find someone out there that I’ve played then good luck,” he said, seemingly forgetting the countless women he macked on with on national TV.
Asked by K&J who initiated the split, Felix replied that “it was pretty mutual”, which is basically code for ‘I got dumped but there’s no way I’m going to admit it.’
“I think the conversations just sort of fizzled out,” he continued, adding, “There were periods where we weren’t talking for like a week. We were just very different people.”
On whether Felix called Jessica’s ex Damien after the show:
Who could forget the season’s most scandalous storyline in which Jess revealed she was in a polyamorous relationship with a bloke named Damien Kelly?
Damien even appeared on the show to meet his girlfriend’s new boyfriend, which made for some deliciously awkward television viewing.

After poor Damo got the boot from Jess so she could be with her chosen Bachy, Felix revealed he reached out to him after essentially stealing his girl and crushing his heart into tiny little pieces.
“In terms of my involvement, Damien was already gone. I called him after the finale just to talk,” Felix explained.

“Look, I think that he’s an interesting dude, and going on TV in that situation probably wasn’t the best thing for him to do. But he was good, he was fine.” Sure, Jan.
On whether he’s back in the dating game yet:
Following his split with Jess, Felix hasn’t held back when it comes to diving back into the dating world.
“I’m actually going on my third date soon with someone,” he spilled to the radio hosts, adding that while the mystery woman knows he was on The Bachelors, she hasn’t watched it, and honestly, we envy that.
“We had a fantastic date on Saturday,” he continued, adding that the woman is also Melbourne-based.
“I’ve done long-distance twice and there’s absolutely no way I’m doing that again.” Fair call.
