When Australia’s former Bachelor and Bachelorette rejects signed on for a second shot at love on spin-off series Bachelor In Paradise, they were expecting fireworks.
And that’s exactly what Keira Maguire, 31, and Sam Frost runner-up Michael Turnbull, 36, got when they were reluctantly set up on the very first date of the series.
Understanding the Bachie web: Keira dated Richie, who dated Sam Frost. And she infamously dumped Michael… Who is now forced to date Keira!
The pair have infamously clashed in the past.
So it was no surprise when NW exclusively learned they were furious when they discovered their first shot at romance on the island would be with each other.
Now, just days into filming, Keira’s threatened to pack up and go home!
“Keira signed on to get set up with a good guy – not someone she already knows and dislikes,” our source told us.
“She feels like she got stitched up, big time!”
Michael might be ready for reality TV to help find him the one… But we can’t forget how he’s been keeping busy in the meantime! Check out his unique profession in the video player below.
Our NW’s insider spilled that there was zero chemistry between the pair.
After the date Keira went straight into a hotel room where she had a 20-minute meltdown.
Keira isn’t shy about sharing how she really feels.
“[She] was rattling off half a dozen names [of Bachelors] and putting them all under the umbrella of ‘Absolutely Not Suitable,’” our spy told us.
Now Keira, said to be crushed, is ready to go home.
“She feels betrayed,” our source explained.
“She really wanted to meet a good guy for her.”
It’s still early days Keira… Fingers crossed babe!
