The 37-year-old is enjoying her downtime before the Bachie madness takes a hold of her life.
The triple threat singer, actress and radio star Sophie Monk was confirmed as the 2017 Bachelorette at the end of April.
As casting started last weekend, and a source told The Daily Telegraph that producers were been “inundated” with applications.
A part from being the very first celebrity Bachie, Sophie will also be widening the age bracket from 25-35 to 25-45.
“They are looking at appealing to perhaps men who are more established, know what they are looking for, as well as single dads,” a source close to the show told News.com.au.
“But Sophie is absolutely open to a younger man as well… Age and type is not a limitation when it comes to finding love.”

Rusty gets friendly with the locals.
Sophie is the first to admit she’s been a little unlucky in love.
“My Mum was the person who suggested that I should be the Bachelorette. She, along with the rest of my family, know how much it means to me to find the right person to settle down with.”
“I moved back to Australia a couple of years ago and I’ve embraced life back in the suburbs on the Gold Coast. I love having my parents and family nearby, and spending time with my niece and nephews, but I’m missing that one person to share it with.”
“I’m in the public eye, but away from that I’m just a regular woman and I’m open to committing fully to finding love on The Bachelorette Australia. After life experience with some of the wrong men, what I want to find above all else is a man who is kind and genuine.”
“I’m looking for someone who’s loving, caring and funny,” the blonde beauty recently admitted to OK! Magazine.
“I want someone who has a job and whose self-esteem is good,” she explained.
The former Bardot singer has dated the likes of Sam Worthington, Benji Madden and Jimmy Esebag… And she knows exactly what she doesn’t want in a man.
“A deal breaker would be, yeah, someone cocky,” she admitted on The Project. “I don’t want that.”
“I’m looking for someone who’s loving, caring and funny.”
Men are flocking at the chance to date Sophie.
We, along with the nation, think Sophie will be an absolute hit. And Bachie god Osher Gunsberg completely agrees.
“I’ve worked with her before and I think she’s fantastic – she’s going to bring up some great conversations in Australia,” he told TV Week.
“She’s a great human being, she’s very funny, she’s very smart and she’s not afraid to tell it like it is which I’m thrilled about.”

“She’s a little gun!”
Now To Love chatted to the original Bachelorette, Sam Frost, about her feelings on this exciting new season.
“I love Sophie Monk, she’s a little gun,” Sam told us at the Logies, the same day as the Bachie . “She’s the perfect Bachelorette because she doesn’t take bullsh-t, she’s cool and she’s a babe and I think she’ll be fantastic.”
So does she have her advice for her successor, considering she’s been there and done that?
“I’d say stay true to yourself and your values, she’s going to do that because that’s the type of person she is.”
Paws up Soph, we think you’re going to be an absolute ripper!
