Channel 10 boss reveals The Bachelor starts filming in a month and they STILL haven't found a male suitor - but don't count on him being a celebrity

By JO SCRIMSHIRE FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA

The Bachelor 2019 begins production in a month and Channel 10 still hasn't locked in a leading man.

Channel 10's Head of Programming Daniel Monaghan told TV Tonight that producers are still searching for the perfect 'desirable' suitor.

He said: 'It’s very close to filming, and we have cast all the girls. We are probably a month away from production.'

lsewhere in the interview, Monaghan strongly hinted that this year's suitor will not be a celebrity.

'The Honey Badger [last year's suitor, Nick Cummins] was obviously very noisy but we will steer in a different direction this year,' he added.

Mentioning how 'unknowns' like Richie Strahan had delivered strong ratings in the past, Monaghan said: 'We'll find a man who is "desirable", wants to settle down and people will want to follow his journey... He may be funny, he may not be.'

Interestingly, Monaghan specifically said the female contestants have been cast, but not the male lead. He also spoke in the future tense ('we'll find a man') when discussing the casting of the suitor.

This would strongly suggest that Channel 10 and producers Warner Bros. Australia have not yet confirmed a leading man - despite filming being just weeks away.

Former Love Island Australia star Justin Lacko has also been mentioned as a possible candidate, but Monaghan said he wasn't right for the job.

Revealed: The very convincing fan theory that Married At First Sight's Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli WILL stay together - so did you notice the editing trick that gave it away?

According to a very convincing fan theory, an editing trick used by producers may reveal that the couple are destined to be together.

During their kiss on Monday night's episode, a familiar-sounding musical theme played in the background.

Fans familiar with The Bachelor franchise will recognise this soundtrack as the so-called 'winner's theme'.

The 'winner's theme' is an informal term for the romantic musical motif, often accompanying a first kiss, which is known to signal a contestant's eventual victory.

This could simply be a coincidence, as MAFS is produced by the same company that used to make The Bachelor, Endemol Shine Australia.

However, according to fans on The Bachelor and Bachelorette Spoiler Forums, it could also be a subtle clue that Martha and Michael stay together until the end of the season.
