Do you know exactly what he does for the show? Is he a producer?

No idea.  I don't think he's anyone important.  IMO "freelance editor" may mean "casual replacement when they're desperate".  Maybe they just hired him to edit that one skydiving clip or something.... It's probably nothing, just thought it was interesting.

I admire the attempt by Matty but I have to and agree with one of the comments posted by someone on IG...
IG comment which is basically a Matty translation: "The Producers told me to tell you that I'm not being told what to do"   

(I mean seriously, the producers are controlling their SM of course they are controlling stuff ) 


@TheBachelorAU

Just to add: in the video clip above...

When Matty says "I'm here purely because I want to find someone" the camera pans to Elise

Geez....Natalie couldn't even be bothered to stand in line again in that video. Good catch on the camera panning to Elise for that zinger line

@AAL are you on the Elise train?

So I gather someone else by now has become aware of how many mutual friends Elise and Matty have on IG?

Yes us...@leapoffaith found these people & we have been tracking what's going on BTS

In the mags it says Leah, Jen and Laura met Matty once at a New Year's Eve party in Bondi... would that be the secret Leah tells?? So intrigued but it's Leah and she does love to make up Sh!t to stir trouble

Very, very interesting about Laura possibly not wanting kids. A definite deal-breaker for sure going by Matty's words in interview

I wonder if perhaps some of the girls in the house got wind of Jen, Laura, and Leah possibly knowing Matty before filming? If so, it could be part of why Matty did his little speech about Sian questioning whether he is genuine or just a puppet especially if the girls may have known something BTS...

It will be interesting to see how it all ends post-show and what the girls say post-show (as those interviews will be more telling imo than the ones now while it's ongoing) 

Sian not holding back on the producers....no need to wait till contract is over I guess, she has spilled the beans IMO. These girls need to talk to ex contestants so they know what to expect before they show up IMO.

Sian's shock tell all: "Why I had to leave The Bachelor Australia!" Humiliated and driven to tears, Sian says her chance in the Bachelor house was ruined by scheming producers.
Things came crashing down for Sian Kelly on her final day in The Bachelor Australia mansion, but what viewers don’t know is the dirty tricks producers used to get her to unravel.

“I needed them to give me some time off camera and they refused,” recalls the 24-year-old Perth beauty, adding that things went from bad to worse when producers plied her with booze and “came at her” with a barrage of questions.

“I think they took it too far,” says Sian, who was reduced to tears after the incident.

On top of being verbally attacked by the producers, Sian - who says she lost four kilos in the house due to stress - reached breaking point when a stylist sabotaged the cocktail party outfit she’d been begging to wear for weeks, instead choosing to give the frock to Dutch beauty Florence.

“I wasn’t upset at Flo [Florence] but I was annoyed that the stylist had lied to me,” she remembers.

“It pretty much went downhill after that, then Nat accidentally spilt red wine on my outfit, my makeup got ruined from crying and my eyelashes were coming off.”

But the ultimate betrayal came when Sian threatened to walk but was talked around by producers and Matty, who convinced her to stay in the show only to send her home without a rose hours later.

“My issues were mainly to do with production, I’m not an idiot and I realised what was happening and I didn’t want to be part of it anymore - it started to feel unnatural,” she tells, adding that at one stage or another all of the girls “wanted to leave” the house.

And with “girl gangs” forming behind the scenes and rumours of tough living conditions, it’s no wonder Sian was pushed close to the edge.

She says that contrary to the way she was edited, she was never friends with ‘villains’ Leah and Jen.

“I was annoyed that I’ve been associated as a villain when I’m not,” she says, revealing that she’s since fallen out with Jen, who she no longer speaks too.

Yep, Sian is confirming for me that when Matty says he is does everything on his own with no producers whatsoever he is BSing.

Sorry that's not how the show works and that the Producers are controlling the girls IG accounts and what they post is proof of this    

Also, post-show the other girls have also shown support to Sian (her IG caption which she had to delete and repost) and rallied behind her - which makes me think for sure that things are awry and not as they seem.

This season has been "off" from the get-go IMO and the SM of the girls is proof of that. I suspect a lot of stories will be coming out once this season is over...

Interesting that she said she thought Lisa was the front-runner but knows more
Is anyone else finding it super odd that no-one has picked Laura CMIIW?
