In an interview with The Sydney Morning Herald The Bachelor Sam Wood has revealed he is anything but a bachelor these days.
“It’s a combination of mystery and frustration,” the handsome 35-year-old began.
“You’d just like to be able to introduce each other to your friends and be out in public and just be as normal as you could be,” he told the paper.
Sam also explained that even his close knit family are completely unaware of which girl has stolen his heart.
“They’re really enjoying seeing if they can work it out, like my closest friends, I reckon if I went to tell them, they’d tell me to shut up, so we’re not going to ruin the surprise,” Sam laughed.
As the dating program nears its end with only six girls left, cracks are most definitely beginning to show.
The Bachelor’s final six.
“It all happens so fast, you don’t spend any time with the girls off-camera, so you’ve got to be as perceptive as you can. It’s not just conversations. It could be a look, it could be body language,” he confessed.
And last night’s episode saw the fit-Bachie unable to send anyone home at all: “I was thinking ‘I’ve got five girls here that are all incredible and the sixth girl at this point is someone who I would have had one conversation with’.”
Explaining, “It just didn’t seem fair to say goodbye to her before I’ve even had a proper conversation with her.”
Handsome Sam admitted that finding the one wasn’t easy, “It all happens so fast, you don’t spend any time with the girls off-camera, so you’ve got to be as perceptive as you can,” he told the paper.
“You just have to continually remind yourself that you’re not here to make a group of great friends,
“I guess that’s the thing that I kept my eye on and knew that if I did, everything would work out in the end, and it did,” he revealed.
Contestant Emily has caused plenty of controversy on and off the show.
Sam didn’t hold back when it came to discussing the bitchy behaviour of some of the ladies who blame it on the alcohol, especially controversial bachelorette Emily.
“To be honest, I just think they’re excuses to justify someone’s behaviour, they’re adults making adult decisions and if Emily was drunk it’s because Emily decided to get drunk. That’s the absolute truth.”
Sam finally put to bed any rumours about poor editing to bed too, “I genuinely believe that people are portrayed on the show how they are in real life.”
