With The Bachelorette finale far behind us, one may think that the show’s drama would be over. But, as a matter of fact, it is far from.
This time, the centre of the latest round of gasp-worthy gossip is Timm Hanly, from Angie Kent’s season of The Bachelorette, as well as this year’s Bachelor In Paradise.
And according to everyone’s favourite reality TV source, So Dramatic! Podcast, Timm reportedly offered thorough tips on how to win the series to this year’s actual winner, Frazer Neate.
Host Megan Pustetto spoke to Shyanne Mirabelli, one of the women who claims to have dated Frazer for a few months before he went on the show, and still keeps in touch with him now.
Throughout the episode, the pair spoke about how Frazer felt about his experience on The Bachelorette and how his friend, Timm Hanly, coached him in preparation.
Shyanne began by suggesting that Frazer went onto the show with intentions to gain popularity and “start his concreting business.”
And he apparently told her, “I’m not going on to find love, it’s just an experience”, which is hardly surprising after almost 10 seasons of the show.
“He’d never watched an episode… he only knew about the perks. He knew Timm and what his life was like,” Shyanne said.
“Timm said: ‘Bro, you’re going to make it so big, you need to get with this agent’.”
Shyanne continued, saying that it was because of Timm that Frazer was so likeable within the show and to all of Australia.
“I heard that Timm had been coaching Frazer before the show, telling him things to say and how to suck up to producers, is that true?” asked Meghan Pustetto.
“I do know that Timm told him that it’s a game and that you need to get in the good books with the producers and do what they want you to do,” said Shyanne.
“Timm did definitely give him pointers. Timm was apparently calling him two-three times a day saying block this journo, block this pap. I’ll get you in some Front Runner, we’ll help each other out.”
However, the drama certainly didn’t stop there. Former Bachelorette, Angie Kent, was far from happy to find out that Timm is rumoured to have said this, taking to her Instagram to share her thoughts in a comment.
“It’s been over a year to still have to read rumours and see this dross. I had nothing but love for homeboy. If this is the truth why does he have to feel the need to keep bringing up our experiences and full know this would hurt anyone’s feelings,” she wrote.
“Let it go. He got his happily ever after, I didn’t. So let’s be a bit more kind to people’s feelings.
“Matters of the heart are tough hey. Just don’t get what blokes get out of saying stuff like this… put it to bed and know your words and actions can hurt people. If he didn’t say it, can we stop with the rumour mill? Makes my trust in men so gloomy and non-existent haha.”
As always, we may never know what really happened between Hanly and Neate prior to his appreance on the show. For now, we’ll just have to wait and see if more drama unfolds.
