As they’ve been flaunting on social media recently while enjoying a romantic getaway, Tim and Anna’s relationship is still rock solid, one year on from when they first met on the reality matchmaking show.

Then, as they attended an event in Sydney for the launch of the Missoni for Target, they revealed their thoughts Blake and Sam – and they kept it rather diplomatic.

“We haven’t see all the interviews and don’t know all the facts,” Anna Heinrich told the Daily Mail while at the launch.

Referring to what Sam went through she said, “It must have been a difficult”

“You could see they were doing it differently from how they did it with us”.

“The show did seem different,” Tim said, also showing empathy for the newer couple.

“It would have been horrible to be in the situation of meeting someone and then thinking afterwards ‘this isn’t right’. I am so glad I didn’t have to go through that.”

Anna agreed: “We are really happy and we are so grateful for meeting [on the show]”.

Tim did show a slight hint of cynicism about what Blake’s intentions might have been though when he said: “We wanted to keep it real – I wanted to keep it real.”

“I went in there with the intentions of finding love and I was lucky enough to find that.”

The pair were amongst a variety of local celebrities that turned out to celebrate the Missoni event as the creative director of the family label Angela Missoni flew in from Italy to launch the affordable fashion and homewares line for Target.

The new range will feature the signature Missoni zig zag design and will retail between $10 and $169 – a much more affordable price range than the thousands it can cost for a designer piece of Missoni’s full-price range collection.

Speaking at the Sydney launch of Missoni for Target, Tim Robards said of this year’s Bachelor drama: “The show did seem different…It would have been horrible to be in the situation of meeting someone and then thinking afterwards ‘this isn’t right’. I am so glad I didn’t have to go through that.”

Tim and Anna posted a series of loved-up snaps of their romantic getaway together over the weekend as their romance appears more rock-solid than ever.

Unlike new Bachelor Blake and Sam, who parted ways after being engaged for only six weeks, Tim and Anna recently celebrated their one-year anniversary together: “1 year strong! My bachelorette is taking me on a date…”

Tim did show a slight hint of cynicism about what Blake’s intentions might have been though when speaking at last night’s event, he said: “We wanted to keep it real – I wanted to keep it real. I went in there with the intentions of finding love and I was lucky enough to find that.”
