It’s getting down to the wire on The Bachelorette as the final episodes loom, and front-runner Michael Turnbull has found himself in even more hot water.
It’s been alleged that he’s been having a fling with with Hi-5 star, Lauren Brant – who shot to notoriety recently when it was revealed she was having an affair with married NRL star Beau Ryan.
According to online reports, the Michael and Lauren were seen out and about “several times” during recent weeks, which was apparently a heartbreaking revelation for Bachelorette and Bondi beauty, Sam Frost.
However Michael has vehemently denied any involvement with Lauren.
“I have not met Lauren Brant,” the Bachelor told The Daily Telegraph. “Any suggestion of an affair is categorically incorrect.”
Lauren Brant with Beau Ryan before their affair was exposed.
These affair rumours come just weeks after Lauren was linked to Beau , when Lauren’s ex-fiancé revealed to us that the two had hooked up twice behind his back.
Since we first broke that story, Beau made a comeback on The Footy Show at the beginning of the month where he apologised for his actions.
“Firstly, I just want to apologise to all the people that have been hurt recently,” the former Cronulla Sharks and West Tigers player said, “It’s been really, really hard for myself and my family, and everyone involved. But, I’m not here to talk about my private life.”
“I want to thank everyone for their support, and thank everyone who has been very respectful of our privacy – I’d love for people to continue to do that.”
And it seems Beau’s public apology may have done the trick for his heartbroken wife and childhood sweetheart, Kara, who he shares a two-year-old daughter with.
Beau posted a picture of himself and Kara on a beach last night looking happy, captioned, “You have to fight through some hard days, to earn the best days of your life. #FacebookHatersGonnaHate”.
The picture, which has garnered more than 36,000 likes so far, has copped its fair share of criticism with fans pointing out that bikini-clad Kara looks less than happy!
“I see the look of uncertainty on her face,” posted one commenter.
Whilst another commented, “She looks hurt.”
Lauren Brant split from her fiancé, personal trainer Warren Riley, in September, and has since been linked to Gold Coast AFL star Charlie Dixon.
