Bachelor Winter Games - General Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

TheWrongReasons wrote:I read on Reddit that Kevin followed Lauren (Ashley’s sister) and Naz (Ashley’s BFF) on IG - I took a look and confirmed this (also ... Kevin and Ashley are following each other). I am so curious what we are in for here

I’m curious too. 
Jasmine Lorimer gave an interview on a podcast (fairly recent) where she said Kevin was the first guy she ever dated who really commits in a relationship. She didn’t go into detail. She said other great things as well but that really stood out.
Ashley seems to have dated a fair amount but never with someone who will give an exclusive relationship a go. 

The “win” spoiler doesn’t necessarily mean anything beyond a competition win however a Kevin following Lauren and Naz adds to the mystery. .

Or it may just show his taste in women....physical and loco!

IF they're together at least he'll never have to compete with anyone for her affections and I could see Ashley & his mom getting along . And on Ashley's side he's a definite upgrade to the guys she's usually thirsting over like Jared & Dean.

I agree and posted similar upthread - they may actually be a good match.  He's shown himself to be very jealous IMO, but no need to be jealous if the girl you're dating is 100% devoted to you, and Ashley has certainly proved she can dedicate herself to one man (to be point of obsessive bunny boiler dedication IMO ).  

And Kev's mum made it quite clear she wants him to be with someone who's 100% dedicated to his needs above all else (not the basis for a healthy relationship IMO, but I digress...) So yeah, bizarrely, I could actually see this working.  IMO it may come down to whether Ashley is willing to finally give up on Jared.

Micheal G has an IG story up of a dog. In the background a woman’s voice is heard giving the dog commands. She has a downunder accent. 
Could be linked to WG.

@notarose Nice catch! For sure an Aussie or Kiwi (sorry folks  not sure) accent. Maybe those that sleuthed the International can have a listen!

Great catch @notarose!

I don't think it's Lily. Maybe Ally?  Although the girl's voice sounds too "sweet" to be either NZ girl IMO.

Comparison clip for Ally on this page.  

I'm not very familiar with Tiffany's voice but there is a clip of her on this page.

According to her IG she was back in AU four days ago though, so that may rule her out: Link

Hmmm.... it's a mystery.

The woman could be someone unrelated to WG who just happens to be from Downunder. 
Also, wouldn’t the Aussies and Kiwis bring there own producers? I wouldn’t rule our Micheal meeting someone like that while filming. I think he is 39 so someone in their early 20’s mightn’t be relatable plus I think he was the guy who went on BIP to meet one specific person then left when that was a no go. Should be interesting. 
Mystery  .

I was never a Kevin fan so am fine if he’s with Ashley I. His mom scared me a little. I'd love to see them meet.  

Lesley was recently dating a very attractive model in NYC but she travels so much that I'm not sure if it was serious. I don’t see anything with Dean lasting so perhaps a fling?

AllAboutLove wrote:Lily and Jordan (both NZ) are currently together in NYC per Jordan's IGstory. Ally (also NZ) seems back home already so it seems like Lily and Jordan are spending time together post-filming. I may have to revoke my Lily card @Bobette  :shocked!:

Lily posted a IG story in the last few hours - she's road tripping across the US (seems like a promotional deal because she is tagging the name of the RV company in a lot of her pics) and currently in Texas.  There are two place settings at the table, two water bottles by the seats in the RV... she is clearly not travelling alone.  

I've been reading some articles Jordan did when his contract/gag order expired, e.g. this one and I actually could see a lot of his claims being true (the final 2 girls were picked by producers and knew there would be no relationship at the end, the breakup was over-emphasised to create drama and demonise him etc etc).

Considering Lily was openly skeptical/critical/aware of the show being what it is - a TV show - during her time on Zac's season, I could actually see them bonding over their similar views of the Bach universe.  So weirdly I'm not as dead against this coupling now as I was at first and will watch with interest to see what unfolds.

If they have hooked up, IMO the NZ audience would not take the news well (Jordan was pretty much despised while Lily was so adored she had people signing petitions trying to get her cast as the first NZ Bachelorette) but I doubt Lily would care - she might just be having a bit of a fun adventure with him and why not.

Lmfaoooo what if him & Ashley are engaged? (I would highkey be on the bandwagon 100%)

Is there a cash prize for winning the Bachelor Winter Games like there was for Bachelor Pad?
