Well, I have to like her now. My brother is Igor too!

IMO If this rumour is true I will say it again this will just show how much she is seeking fame instead of love because why would you turn him down if she is 'all in' with him as she says. IMO she will be even more hated by the Australian public afterwards for being so childish and fake.

Not only that but no one will believe in any so called “love story”, just two rejects who happen to end up together because Locky had to end the season with someone

I agree. Why would Irina accept his love when you know you are not his first choice and being shown on national television!

IMO they committed to that ending early - pre-COVID, when they had Bella in mind for Bette, and were then stuck with it even though IMO she must have pissed someone in production off bigtime during the 4-month break to earn such a drastic 180 in her edit coming back.

I don't think it's any coincidence they filmed full dates (and kisses) with so many girls post-lockdown.  IMO the ending was scripted as "Bella +1", the +1 being whichever of the remaining girls were willing (or naiive enough) to go through with such a disrespectful ending

The blowback from this is going to make Blake and Badger's finales look like jolly picnics, IMO.  

The so dramatic podcast said in there podcast uploaded today that that’s not the ending but that Bella doesn’t have a great reaction to being rejected and did something that divided her and irena even more but that she didn’t want to spoilt what it was. I don’t like the podcast but Regardless without that info I just don’t believe that’s what’s gonna happen. That would not be a great thing for irena. Megan from the podcast also confirmed that locky and irena are still together, and says that one of locky’s friend told her that he’s still with whoever he choose and there doing great.

I've been waiting for the media to report on whatever Megan said in the podcast today regarding the finale, because I wasn't going to listen.You did the Lord's work listening

100% exactly what I said since Day 1 (but no I'm not the source )

The latest rumour is that series frontrunner Bella Varelis is expected to make the finale on Thursday night because, err…she signed a contract to ensure she’d make the final two.

According to the latest kettle of tea from the So Dramatic! podcast, “The source says Bella had a clause in her contract that she would be guaranteed to make the top two, she was signed to an agent for acting and was supposed to move to LA this year but then it got postponed because The Bachelor offer came up,” host Megan Pustetto claims.

“So they negotiated the contract for her and to make it worthwhile, they made sure she would be in the final two. She is only doing the show to promote herself and her career.”

Also believe this.  

Pustetto went on to say that she heard Locky actually wanted Bec to make the top two — instead of Bella. “Apparently, Locky had a stronger connection with Bec and wanted to send Bella home when she started carrying on about Irena, [in] the episode where he pulled her aside during the cocktail party. But he had to make up with her and put on a charade as to why he was still keeping her on the show after what she did.”

Later in the podcast episode, Pustetto also claimed that during her time in the mansion, Bella would constantly call herself a “Sydney socialite” and say that “she wanted to be the next Bachelorette.” Hopefully, we can put all these rumours to rest when the season wraps this week….but I doubt it!

Wasn't there a rumour at the start of the season that Locky picked Bella to be F1 but producers didn't agree to it.

Also there was a rumour that similar to above, that she is guaranteed to be F2
