The latest season of the The Bachelor Australia – or, should we say The Bachelors – has returned to screens sooner than expected this year.
The latest instalment of the reality dating franchise sees the return of three leading men to court 24 different women in the Bachelor mansion.
With each season bringing a new cohort of sweethearts and villains, we can’t wait to see the drama and the flawless pot stirring from our favourite host, Osher Gunsberg.
Following the previous season of The Bachelors, season 11 will bring back a main cast of three handsome leading men, as opposed to the traditional one.
This season offers an NRL star, an influencer and a model, each looking for love in exactly the right place – on our TV screens.
Here’s everything we know about season 11 of The Bachelor Australia, including where to watch and who our new Bachelors are.
Who Are The Bachelors 2024?
We have three bachelors this season, and we’re pleased to introduce you to Wesley Senna Cortes, Ben Waddell and Luke Bateman.
Wesley Senna Cortes
Wesley is an influencer in his native Brazil, but moved to Australia to study theology.
According to Channel 10, Wesley has previously struggled to find a lasting connection – a wrong he wants to right on the show.
Ben Waddell
Ben Waddell is a model and environmentalist who is no stranger to the media. In 2021, he claimed Zac Efron’s Netflix series, Down To Earth, was stolen from his own pitch. He even went on A Current Affair to make his case.
We also know a little about his dating history already, as he was formerly linked to model Pip Edwards.
It goes without saying that Ben hopes to find a bachelorette who shares his passion for the environment.
Luke Bateman
A former NRL player, Luke Bateman used to play for the Canberra Raiders before a knee injury forced him to leave the sport.
Nowadays, he’s a lumberjack hoping to create a family and raise future footy stars with the bachelorette of his dreams.
