Bachelor In Paradise - Australia - Season 3 - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Bringing over the IG accounts of Matt and Angie's contestants so we can check for cross-follows and see who's likely to be on the show and who's got their eye on whom.  

A few quick notes of interest:

Monique is following Matty although supposedly in a relationship ( ), Abbie is following Carlin, while Helena's not following anyone so may be over it (for now).

Tara Maree is following half of Angie's cast, Rachel is following Niranga, Nichole is following the "nice guys" as per my comment upthread, and Mary is only following Glenn.

From previous seasons, I notice Alisha is following Jackson (and none of the others) so they may have been chatting behind the scenes.  I'd like to see Alisha again.

Were they already following or are they new follows? Because they could be 'friend of a friend of someone in production' follows. I assume quite a lot of them are cast because they "know people" and not from cold applications?

The ones I mentioned are new follows this week, since the guys were announced.  If you check IG from a computer (rather than mobile) follows are in chronological order from most recent backwards.  

Nichole was following some of the other guys earlier (when we sourced their IGs ) and she knows Matty IRL as they have mutual friends but those five upthread were new this week.  

I'm sure some are DMing behind the scenes - there were media articles saying they already were before Angie's season wrapped - I just wanted to quickly note down what I noticed today.  

Also there will be deseprados from past seasons hoping to get another go IMO.  Bill did an interview today saying he wants in (even though he said the show "ruined his life"   ).  NO THANKS.

Re: bolded... ah, nice trick! I always use mobile. Speaking of IG, their change to hide seeing the activity of people you follow is going to make sleuthing just that little bit harder and less interesting...

imo Bill is a massive fame whore who will absolutely do BiP again if he can!

@leavers Yes the bold was the topic of much debate and experimentation a few seasons back.  

Some people were convinced that follows were random and others that they were chronological and eventually we worked out it depended on whether we were viewing via the website or app.  

I didn't know IG were changing their rules (I barely use SM other than when I'm looking for sleuthing clues) but I can understand why they would.  Oh well we will just have to get more creative

Since last night's episode, Abbie has started following Ciarran and Timm.  She's also been in the media saying her and Todd are "just good friends".  She wants a ticket to Paradise IMO.

ETA:  Pretty clear she's set her sights on Big Sexy IMO.  Sorry Todd but if she's seen the video @Bachbee posted on Timm's thread you may as well just bow out gracefully now IMO.  





Source and Source

Belle is following Ciarran (first) then Adam, Tom, Carlin, Alex, Niranga, Scot, Matty and Jamie

Brianna - none

Cassandra - none on her business account, can't be bothered checking her other one

Chelsie - none (thought I'd better check!   )

Danush - none

Elly - none

Emma - none

Georgina - on private

Hannah - none

Helena - none

Jessica - Matty (first) then Alex, Niranga and Tom

Jessie Ashley - none

Julia - none

Keely - has changed her username, can't be bothered looking up her new handle

Kristen - none

Mary - still just Glenn... AND HIS TWIN BROTHER

Monique - still just Matty

Nichole - hasn't added anyone in addition to those she was already following

Nikki - just Jamie

Rachael - Niranga, Matty, Jackson, Ciarran and Carlin in that order

Renee - on private.  I wonder if they will send her to Paradise just to piss Ciarran off...

Sam - Matty, Niranga, Scot, Ciarran

Sogand - none

Sophie - none

Tara maree - none

Tasha - Matty and Tom

Vakoo - none

So going by that Matty seems to be hot property and should be top of the casting director's list for Season 3 IMO.

Haven't checked girls from previous seasons but might be interesting to do so.  Who do we think might come back?  

Alisha was following Jackson pre-show and added Timm after last night's ep.

Just saw a picture on a private Survivor Facebook group that I’m on, so unfortunately I can’t link to it showing Channel 10’s schedule for next year, and BIP is scheduled for April/May again, so unless the filming for BIP is pushed back into the new year we’re going to have a 6 month wait between filming and airing again, which will probably mean no successful couples again

Following update:

Helena is now following Matty, Glenn, Ciarran and... BILL.   Please tell me Bill is not coming back again.  But anyway, it seems Helena is warming to the idea of a free holiday in Fiji.  Ciarran or Matty could be good for her - girl needs to loosen up a bit IMO.

I truely can’t imagine Perfect Princess Helena with any of the guys from Angie’s season, as the lady herself would say “I just carn’t”

However I could see her and Bill together, she seems his type (thin blonde with a pulse) please TPTB, spare me another season of Bill mugging it up all over the screen

@Dirty Street Pie Oh no I can totally see it!  IMO she needs a guy who won't even let her get to the stage of saying she carn't - someone who won't entertain/enable her over-analysis of every situation.

I'd like to see her get out of her head and just have full on lusty holiday romp.  It doesn't need to last forever.  Bonus points if he can get her to eat something without scrutinising the list of ingredients.

I'd happily ship her with Matty for a Paradise fling.  ETA:  I have thought of the perfect analogy.  Paradise is the Breakfast Club, Helena is Molly Ringwood and she needs a dose of Judd Nelson, IMO.

Officially no Paradise for Todd - he's off to be a cop.

She said in a podcast that she thought Rachael and Vakoo were queerbaiting, to be honest, I agreed with her, but the girls have hit back hard, Vakoo is especially savage

Bobette wrote:@Dirty Street Pie I also agree with Abbie re: the queer baiting but she's coming off as desperate for attention IMO.  I didn't think much of her stunt recreating Ciarran's nudiness either.  Her points are valid but other ways to make them IMO.  

She's also been doing weird "recaps" of Angie's eps which are basically just been her pulling weird facial expressions and making it quite clear she wants to bang Ciarran or Timm IMO.  Just chill girl - Paradise will start filming next month.

Dirty Street Pie wrote:Yes @Bobette Abz seems particularly thirsty to stay in the limelight, pretty true to what the other girls on Matts season were saying. I wonder if she and Todd will be on a break until after Paradise, and then pick back up if she doesn't find long lasting love and/or Instafame with someone there.

Sprite wrote:Have we had any further sightings of these two? Personally I thought those first photos were staged for the paps by her. I don't know if he was aware or not, but my money would be not.

Bobette wrote:IMO Todd's keen but I don't see the feelings reciprocated.  Abbie's made it clear she's keeping her options open for Paradise IMO, repeatedly saying they're "just friends" and posting suggestive comments about Timm & Ciarran.

@Bobette thanks for the news. Good for him for pursuing his goals after his Bach debacle. And now I’m even more sure that Abbie’s interest in him is gonna plummet... as we pretty much guessed.
