Re: Art & Matilda Green - Bachelor New Zealand - Season 1 - Fan Forum

Great spotting AAL. I still can't work out snapchat even though my teenager has tried to teach me

Rarotonga is absolutely gorgeous and can be very romantic (if you don't take your kids!). I hope they have a fabulous time. They are lucky they are able to take so much time off work. How much time did it take to film the Bachelor NZ?

I don't know how to use snapchat either. Just use it for sleuthing purposes and grabbing s/shots.

Filming for the show was approx. 7 Weeks (Jan 16-March 7). So actually a very short time.

The show aired March 17-May12 so over 8 weeks after filming they were together and in hiding and both working during that time - although Art's job seems much more flexible and he travels more (his friends wedding in USA for one).

So while it seems like they have had a lot of time off it seems relegated to weekends when they spent the one weekend together at Castaways Resort and now this last weekend trip together which seems like the longest one they have spent with each other.

News Flash!

Super cute photos have appeared on Art and Matilda's Instagram accounts!

I can just see them attempting the high five photo. I bet they laughed and laughed.

I am a little worried that their gorgeous adorable/adorkable ness has completely ruined me for other Bachelor couples. Will we ever see another couple so cute?

[AngelaM]

Thanks Guardian Angel for making this a fan forum. Yes we will continue to stalk this young love. I think that it is just so refreshing that relationship is growing and hasnt been an instant one with expectations of proposals and wedding outcomes. Its is so exciting for the both of them and for us too. :cutesmile!:

More news!

The below article was on the Stuff website and the Remix magazine article looks as though it will be very interesting. It's comes out on Thursday. I can't seem to bring over the photo of Art that is on the website but he looks hot! Best photo of him ever!


"The Bachelor's Arthur Green reveals the real first kiss on the dating reality television had to be cut and never screened.

It happened after he and the lucky contestant had been drinking and he was in his underwear - breaching show rules.

Green made the admissions in the latest issue of magzine Remix, in an interview with Isabelle Truman. He told the mag the first real kiss on the show was with 29-year-old make-up artist Amanda but it could not be legally shown on the show.

Hair and makeup artist Amanda was the first Bachelorette to share a kiss with Arthur Green.

During the pair's first date at the beach they decided to strip down and go for a swim, Green said.

"It was summer and warm outside."

Green told Remix he went rogue and stripped down to his undies (Amanda was wearing a bikini) and jumped in the water.

"They couldn't show it on screen because we'd been drinking and there's also a law that you can't be seen in underwear on the show - if they were speedos it would've been fine!" he told Remix.

So legally MediaWorks was unable to show the true first kiss on The Bachelor, he said.

"Just as she kissed me we got pummelled by a massive wave, which was hilarious too, so they were pretty pissed they couldn't show that on television!"

Green said he also kissed South Auckland event planner Natalie off camera.

Natalie became known during the show for her awkwardness during intimate encounters with Green.

During his interview with Remix, Green also gave a bit of intel on what really happened behind the scenes.

"On television you saw dates and you saw lots of serious conversations about feelings.

"What you didn't see was that there was a lot of fun in some of the conversations – a lot more joking around."

Everything had to be "content-related" on the show, so most of the joking around and "normal everyday chat" was cut out, he said.

Green said the show's producers would let him know the topics they wanted him to bring up at some point during each date and eventually he figured out what they wanted and would direct the conversation that way.

"When it finished Mattie (Matilda) and I decided to never talk about feelings again!"

Green said he and his now-girlfriend Matilda Rice would have still got together if they met under different circumstances.

"If I had met her in a normal situation I would have 100 per cent pursued it though."

When it comes to what Green looks for in a perfect partner, he said humour was the most important thing.

"It's such a personality thing. For me, it's humour. I'm really drawn to humour and confidence.

"I really like someone that's confident even when meeting people for the first time.

"It's important to have high standards too - I don't understand why girls like guys that treat them bad, that really annoys me."

Green's interview with Remix magazine follows a spate of interviews since the first season of The Bachelor New Zealand wrapped up in May.

A photoshoot accompanied the interview and in true Arthur Green style, the bachelor bared his abs.

Green was styled for the shoot by television presenter and former Miss World Amber Peebles, photography by Marissa Findlay.

The full interview is in the latest edition of Remix magazine, on sale nationwide on Thursday and available through remixmagazine.com."
