Belinda was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer near the time Georgia was first approached to be the Bachelorette.

The 28-year-old has previously opened up about her mother being a driving force behind her decision to star in the reality show.
“I’m doing this because I realise that family and love is what is important at the end of the day,” she said on an early episode of the show.
Georgia wants to find a love like her mum and dad have.
“I think, with everything you’re going through at the moment,” she said to her mother at the time, “I’ve seen what it’s like to be, you know, loved.”
“Seeing how Dad has been with you has made me realise how important family is, and having loved ones, that’s what I want.”
