This is what Sophie Monk looks for in a potential boyfriend

In celebration of our new favourite Bachelorette, we chat to the woman herself.

When it comes to finding love, Sophie Monk hasn’t always had the best luck. So when the chance to find her perfect man came along, the fact it was going to be aired on national television didn’t bother her.

“You’re going to see me as me, like my family would and it’s scary. I'm not watching it, no way, it’s full on!” she tells Vogue ahead of the Bachelorette premiere.

Monk, who confirms she has found ‘the one’ on the show — “I’ve totally found love” — admits for her perfect man, it’s all about trust.

“I just want to feel safe for a minute because I feel like I look after guys and everyone around me. I want someone that’s going to look after me, not financially,  but I want to feel safe and not comfortable, and I don’t want someone that’s threatened or intimidated or jealous by what I do because that ruins everything,” she says.

“Trust is everything, if you don’t have that you’re screwed and that’s what I’ve learnt over the years.”

As for what you have to do to impress Monk on a date? It’s quite easy really — simplicity is key.

“My life is quite glamorous, I get hair and make-up done all the time so I just want someone that makes me laugh and just chills. I’d rather just relax and not go out because when I go out I feel like its work.”

But her main takeaway from the show, which Monk is the first to admit might be hard for Australia to do, is about starting fresh and taking a leap of faith.

“I’ve been doing this since I was teenager and if you Google me from back then, its so different to who I am now. I’ve lived in LA for so long and people like the idea of what I am and not me. So I just want a best friend that you get along with and who’s got your back, and it’s hard.”

“I thought the public might hate me but, I'm happy so f*** them. I think Australia are really caring so they will see that.”

If you thought this season of *The Bachelorette Australia 2017 was going to be X-rated, think again!

While Sophie Monk might have played some promiscuous characters on the big screen, in real life she’s not that kind of girl.

In fact, the thought of getting down and dirty during on The Bachelorette is massive turn-off for her.

"Oh, that is so gross – I could not do that on TV. And in America, it’s so full-on. Like, 'Change the sheets!'" Sophie exclusively spilled to NW.

Sophie says she planned to save the action until after the finale when the cameras are off because she wanted to fall in love without sex getting in the way.

"It’s a bit dirty for TV. But what I loved about [The Bachelorette Australia 2017] is that you’re not doing it," she remarked.

"You have to form a friendship, whereas in normal life you might do it earlier and that could change everything – especially for women! I think men are different but, for me, after sex, I fall straight away. So yeah, being patient – it’s just the best."

As for ending up with a dud in bed?

"I think you can kind of tell! Just from, like, confidence or kissing... I think you can tell, but it’s so nice waiting."

But, that’s not to say that there won’t be any action in the house, with Soph revealing there was plenty of lip-locking in the mansion.

"I said I wouldn’t and then, next minute – bang, first date!" the blonde bombshell laughed.
