Bachelor Australia - Season 8 - Locky Gilbert - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Welp, there goes my hope for Izzy on BIP or being the next Bachelorette . She's gone and got herself a boyfriend.

Right, so has everyone taken note of the shoes and toenail polish colours?

Surely they wouldn’t have had phones on them at this stage

No couple video yet but both locky and irena have done their “couples post”
Gushing love.......... I want to see the video and how they interact now.

Edit to add - you can tell Locky actually wrote this post with the wording and grammar.

Also I’ve just seen the couples video.....she looks so little next to him and he’s so huge just protecting her. Looking forward to seeing their interactions moving forward

Aren’t those filmed right after the final rose ceremony? Matt and Chelsie’s was.

I am done with the show. Good on Bella for restricting her comments, Irena has done the same so  I guess the same standards apply. So Dramatic and the tabloids have clearly  been fooling people. So Dramatic is IMO starting to sound like US's Reality Steve Anyway, Izzy has also spoken up on punkee and has confirmed that even before COVID-19 Irena was bath-mouthing Bella behind her back... we did manage to see a bit of that. I have the feeling that @HEA and @leavers may want to read what Izzy had to sayd for IMP both Steph and Izzy, they have nothing to lose as they are aligning with the 'loser' and they are both nice girls. IMO we have no reason to think otherwise besides gossip shared by So Dramatic, who I believe may be getting the 'insider info' from Irena IMO. Poor So Dramatic, no wonder why she was never a respected journalist. The Australian franchise  has a F1 been so unpopular as Irena among other contestants, to the point of being ccused of being a fake, bitchy, vicious person by the most likeable contestants, so in Australia, Irena's case is a first.  

Finally, I watched the video of Irina and Lochy and IMO there is nothing there... if they are still together this is going to be IMO another Matt and Chelsie story but Chelsie, unlike Irena, was not a drama loving  bitchy girl. The contestants actually liked Chelsie.  I am glad this is over. Irena and Lochy are not very smart and are so dull and unatractive together IMO that is a relief to see them forever gone of my TV and since I don't watch free TV I ak sure I will never see them again

Here an excerpt,  Ezzy on what really happened with Bella and Irena:
“From what we’re seeing, it really looks like the whole feud is staged over Irena talking to Locky which is not the case at all.  There was a whole lot that happened during iso, off-camera, things that were said by Irena to us girls about Bella and it was at the point they were still best friends. And Bella found out about those things and that’s why she reacted in the way she did, she felt betrayed by someone she thought was her best friend. She said things about Bella that were lies and didn’t really happen.”

There are multiple sides of the story to what happened btwn Irena and Bella, including this one:

All we have evidence of as viewers was Bella consistently criticising Irena to the other girls, to Locky, and to his mum while we haven't seen Irena do this. Whether it was edited out or not - who knows but there isn't a shortage of scenes where Bella goes ballistic (quite obsessively) about Irena.. imo, it's all mind games to herd the sheep around her ...

Gee I really thought Locky was going to chase after Bella after he rejected her! I don't know if Locky and Irena will last - I do think there was a connection from the beginning and once again, I do WISH the producers spent more time focusing on that rather than the bad acting (which is getting worse every year..)  

It's a big call for him to call Irena his future wife and baby mamma... we will see....

And Bella's insta post calling him a frog... what a bitter child ..  

And according to this interview, Izzy says the reason for the Irena/Bella feud is because Irena told everyone Bella was only there to get famous boost her insta-following.  Which IMO she very clearly was, so....

Also I notice since that DM article pointing out how ~ strange ~ it is that her numbers jump on Thursdays and Fridays, not Wednesdays and Thursdays (when the show airs) her numbers suddenly jumped yesterday *like magic*.

Seems to me she had a standing order for a certain number of followers to be purchased throughout the season, not realising her choppy edit and plummeting popularity would be a dead giveaway that the followers are not all genuine.

Not sure if you've seen as well, but Bella and Irena are getting about the same amount of likes on each picture - and Bella's pre-Bach photos only got 100-300 likes - Bella's clearly not bothered to buy likes since they're not visible within Australia anymore
