That’s right, it’s time once again for the most despised women in reality TV to march into the mansion to try and steal away The Bachelor’s affections.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!You can bet the incumbents’ claws are already sharpened too: one of last season’s intruders, Lana Jeavons-Fellows, made it to the final two before Sam Wood ultimately chose Snezana Markoski over her.
So who exactly is the trio about to turn the Bachelorettes’ world upside down on the hit Ten series?
Let’s meet them.

Why did you apply for The Bachelor Australia?
I knew that by going on The Bachelor I was going to be introduced to a man with very clear intentions – that he definitely wanted a partner and wanted to settle down, which is just so rare to find these days. I think we are starting to become a generation where flings are more “in” than relationships and it just doesn’t sit right with me.
Why are you single?
I’m not quite sure why I’m single. After having a very serious long-term seven year relationship, I now know exactly what I want in a man, and I especially know what I don’t want! I think for a while I was quite scared to enter new relationships and I did try another one for a short time, but my trust was broken again and well, here I am!
How are you going to stand out?
I think being a country girl born-and-bred, I’m quite down to earth and have a big sense of adventure! I have always said I’d rather somebody not love me for who I am, rather than love me for someone I’m not. So, I believe just being myself is the best and only option!
What is a deal breaker in a guy?
Someone that deliberately changes themselves to fit in with others and also someone that is selfish. I absolutely cannot stand selfish, arrogant men.
Describe your dream date
My dream date would be to do something really fun – preferably adrenalin based! I’m not so much into fine dining and things like that, I actually think it’s quite boring. So take me out on an adventure doing something crazy any day.

Why did you apply for The Bachelor Australia?
I never thought I would ever do something like this, but when the opportunity arose I went for it! Sometimes you just need to put your heart out there.
How are you going to stand out?
Just by being me! I ride dirt bikes, love metal music, fishing and am always up for adventure.
What’s your most memorable dating story – good or bad?
My favourite date so far was with a very handsome man who let me choose what we’d do together. I chose go-karting! We had the best time being silly and goofing around, then had drinks and talked the night away!
Who is your celebrity crush and why?
Daniel Ricciardo is definitely my biggest crush. He has the best sense of humour, loves metal, love bikes and is just adorable.
Describe your dream date
Going to the Moto GP and being able to enjoy the race and a beer with my date.

Why did you apply for The Bachelor Australia?
20 girls vying for Australia’s Most Eligible Bachelor is better odds than the real world, so I thought I’d take the gamble.
Why are you single?
I’ve had a couple of significant relationships, but I haven’t found the guy that makes me feel like I’m the only girl in the room, or who’s understood when I need to be alone in a room to just be myself.
How are you going to stand out?
I’m just simple, old me. I’ll probably only stand out when I have verbal diarrhoea or I’m cringing at some awkwardness that’s going on.
What is a deal breaker in a guy?
He needs to be able to make me laugh. If he can’t do that, he’s not a keeper.
Describe your dream date
My dream date would have to be something simple but elegant. Like stale sandwiches and champagne on a blanket by the beach. Or a night under the stars with plenty of mosquito repellent.
