Before Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins took to our screens on this season of The Bachelor, Australia has watched five bachelors and three bachelorettes search for “the one” – but never have we experienced a finale quite like last night.
In case you missed it, Cummins, 30, went home single leaving Brittany Hockley and Sophie Tieman confounded by the unprecedented outcome. In the lead-up, the internet has been widely speculating that the former rugby star has actually found love with third runner-up Cassie Wood.
The 24-year-old, who won Australia’s heart this season, took to Instagram to send her love to Sophie and Brittany. “My two soulmates from day 1. Love you both to the moon and back,” Cassie wrote.
On Wednesday, she told Kyle and Jackie O that she is currently single, confirming that she hasn’t dated anyone and she doesn’t see a future with the Honey Badger.
“Going on that show it was kind of like a second chance for me and him and by the end of it I was so invested in him and I was obviously falling for him and he told me that he wasn’t interested,” she explained.
“But walking away from it, like he was the one that got away from me in the real world, and then I got my answer so I guess it was a bit of closure and he wasn’t interested and that was my answer.”
