The Bachelor bombshells, goss & saucy secrets
They’re there for a reason… but not for love!
Bitching and bluffing may have got mean girls Cat, Alisha and Romy a long way in the Bachelor mansion, but it’s come to light the sassy TV villains’ onscreen personas could all be a paid for facade!
Sources close to the show have fuelled speculation the trio – dubbed “the Tripod” – have been planted in the house by producers to stir things up among the girls vying for Bachelor Nick “Honey Badger” Cummins’ attention.
“Their behaviour is all samesame and well thought through,” observes a set insider of their coordinated nastiness.
Off-camera, ringleaders Cat and Romy – who both have acting experience outside of the show – have been spotted having secret meetings with producers, which has raised suspicion.
DESPERATE FOR FAME
Meanwhile, Alisha, 25, who struck up an alliance with Cat and Romy, is part of the clique but is always sidelined when it comes to the secret catch-ups!
“Alisha is very insecure about her place in the house and has latched onto the others for security,” spills the insider. “She thinks she’s not pretty enough to match it with most of the girls, so she bullies them instead to make herself feel better.”
In their desperate quest for fame, Romy, Cat and tag-along Alisha will stop at nothing to break into the celebrity sphere – even feign love!
“It’s clear all three haven’t the slightest interest in Nick and they’ve been planted there by network producers,” our insider tells. “They mirror each other’s actions, right down to Snog-gate, where Romy and Cat made clunky, unwanted attempts to kiss the Honey Badger.”
SECRET PACT
The girls are said to be playing the game and plotting tactics with producers as they attempt to win the former rugby union player’s affections, because they all have hidden agendas.
Brazen Bali-based Cat, 24, was vocal from the get-go about her “real” passion for fashion when she presented Nick with cufflinks on their first meet-and-greet. Sources believe the budding designer is stealing the show to promote her jewellery line.
It’s also been revealed her wingwoman Romy, 29, is an actress and it’s claimed she’s using the show – and Nick – to boost her public profile.
Alisha, too, is eager for a life in the spotlight, with rumours she’s already negotiated a deal to go on Bachelor In Paradise.
The three women are so committed to their causes, there’s whisperings of a pact between them that if one exits the mansion, all will elect to go in a shock group departure.
“And that’s got to be a good thing,” laughs our insider.
