Just when you thought you couldn’t handle any more Bachie twists, it turns out that everyone’s fave girl Tara isn’t going to be left heartbroken by Matty J.
While we’re still pretty sure she doesn’t win the final rose (sob), apparently Tars has had her eye on another man this whole time – one she met inside The Bachelor mansion.
Derek Reiter, the bartender who worked in the house with the girls, has come out and said that he and Tara got along so well that Channel Ten fired him to keep the show on track.
But despite him not receiving a rose (read: being sent packing), Derek says that he and Tara are still in touch.
“We’ve been in contact – I even messaged her yesterday and asked if I could take her out,” he told Women’s Day.
And even Tara has acknowledged Derek, saying: “We used to joke the D on my necklace stood for Derek the bartender!”
At least this means that if Matty does indeed pick rumoured frontrunner Laura, Tara won’t be left heartbroken, because seriously, we couldn’t handle watching that.
