As we prepare to fall in a deep dark bachie hole, with Richie Strahan taking charge, on a quest to find love – we remember the girls of seasons past.
You can’t have a bachelor without a herd of bachelorettes and season three provided so much joy.
Sam Wood and Snezana Markoski may be completely smitten and ready to start their own family, but it did take over 22 contestants to get theier fairytale ending.
It’s only fitting that we catch up with last year’s fan favourites to ask whether they have any advice for the new ladies
Sandra Rato was last year’s “loud and funny” girl. “A lot of the time I was referred to by the public and those horrible trolls as being obnoxious and attention seeking because I was the “chubby” one in the house,” she recalls. But she had the last laugh, looking sizzling after loosing a whooping 12kgs.
She attributes her weight loss to a Mediterranean diet, yoga and spin classes. She says she’s “still looking” for her Prince Charming.
Her advice to the season four ladies? “Don’t allow ugly trolls to get to you.” Watch Sandra on The Bachelor last year. Post continues after the gallery

While we may all be focused on the love story that is Sam and Snez, it took 22 girls to get there… Woman’s Day chats to some of the fan-favourites from season 3!
Bec Chin: “I’ve met The One since the show she’s been living in Sydney, working full time as a dietitian and very much in love!”
She may have met Sam before the show during a escape to Bali, but she has found stability and true love in her new beau, Dean, “We recently bought an apartment together.” Her advice to Richie’s girls, “Embrace it, and don’t read any comments on social media.”
Emily Simms was the season’s vixen, regularly stirring up other bacherlorettes. While she is still single, the pretty brunette has sparked up a whole new career…
“Since the show I have focused on my makeup and candle businesses and got back into modelling. My advice to this season’s girls would be to try to take it all with a grain of salt, if you can!”

Everyone’s favourite mate Jacinda Gugliemino has found her Bachelor! “I’m currently seeing someone,” she teases. “It’s early days.”
Her advice to the new gals: “Don’t be bitter and twisted by the outcome. Enjoy it and be kind to each other. You will be the only ones who understand what you’re all going through so you have to stick together. “
Lana Jeavons-Fellows was the heartbroken runner-up, with Sam leaving her for Snez. But fear not, she is now in absolute bliss!
She has since bagged hot entrepreneur Jake Meah. “I’m very happy.” Her tip to the runner-up: “Call me anytime girl, I get you!”
Former intruder Rachel is still single, but recently became an RSPCA ambassador.
She wants to tell the next cast of gals: “Your friends and family know the real you.”
Reshael tells us, “I’ve changed careers and started studying again. I’m studying to be a Drama and English teacher!”
And she is completely smitten with her man, “I’m in a relationship and have been since the show ended. He’s a beautiful man, inside and out and I’m so blessed to have him in my life. Little love hearts just fill my brain whenever I think of him – I know, it’s sickening!”
