On paper, Jimmy Nicholson is quite the package. A pilot, outgoing, friendly, handsome, tallโฆ wait, did we actually clarify that?
Now To Love sat down with Jimmy post-filming, and ahead of the premiere episode to get a glimpse of what the season holds.
We already know he has found love, and we know that heโs smitten with his new girlfriend (yes, theyโre officially a couple now), but thereโs one thing we quickly had to double check before watching the first episode.
Every season of The Bachelor we often get to wondering: Is the bachelor short or the contestant really tall? Or maybe heโs just average height and looks short next to a particularly height-blessed gal.
Or maybe itโs the bachelor who is super tall and the women on the shorter side.
Ah! Too many options โ we cleared it up once and for all.
How tall is Jimmy Nicholson?
Jimmy Nicholson is 6โฒ1, which is around 185cm tall.
But donโt be alarmed if the exact measurements are slightly off, Jimmy mightโve skewed on the generous side when he answered the question.
โJust 6โ1, I think Iโm 6โ1โฆโ he told us as we joked that rounding up was quite the Tinder bio move.

Jimmy is 6โ1.
(Instagram)While weโre sure weโll get to know a whole lot more about Jimmy beyond just his height over the next few weeks, there are several other fun facts we found out about the new bachelor during our chat.
Firstly, heโs really, really into motrobikes. After his pilot work was left in limbo during the COVID-19 pandemic, the 32-year-old took it as a silver lining to work on his other true passion.
โIโm really motorbike obsessed, Iโm always in my garage working on them. Iโm either building a bike or fixing bikes, itโs meditation for me,โ he explained, adding that one of his bikes will even feature on the show.
Another fact? His wardrobe on the show is a reflection of himself.
โI was pretty cruisey [about clothes on the show]. Thereโs some amazing people that work on the wardrobe department so I was like, โYep cool Iโll wear anything!'โ

Expect to see the real Jimmy Nicholson, passions and all on the show.
(Network Ten)Going into the show, Jimmy had a one in 23 chance of finding love, and that it seems, he did.
Speaking of the woman he picked (without giving it away!), he told us: โI noticed her the first night I saw her, she is stunning,โ he said of his final pick.
โBut itโs not until you really get to know someone that you can really know- thereโs just so much going on those first few days of filming. I definitely noticed her at the start and towards the end it became quite clear [it was her].โ
