'I don't think I could handle it if she doesn't choose me!' The Bachelorette's Jarrod Woodgate is terrified Sophie Monk will break his heart... despite the two planning a wedding together
His intense infatuation with Sophie Monk goes from strength to strength, which has led fans to dub him a 'stage five clinger.' pushed on by the Daily F's constant use of highly emotive words like "intense infatuation" and never letting an article go by without using "stage 5 clinger" to describe him - they took the public reaction of whoa! this guys over the top right from the gate! and ran with it for the whole series. They don't like to get any new material ... would take an effort on their part

And now Jarrod Woodgate, 32, who has made it to the final three on The Bachelorette, has revealed he won't be able to cope if he doesn't win the show.

In an interview with NW, the vineyard manager said: 'If she doesn't choose me, I don't think I could handle it.'

'I don't think I could handle it if she doesn't choose me!' The Bachelorette's Jarrod Woodgate is terrified Sophie Monk will break his heart... despite the two planning a wedding together

He also told the magazine that Sophie is who he wants to be with for the rest of his life and 'would be ready in a heartbeat to settle down with Soph.'

'The last thing I want to do is leave the mansion without Sophie...I'm committed to her 100 per cent,' he said. wouldn't anyone thats got to final 2-3 be also feeling this way?

The 32-year-old revealed that he envisions a future with the former Bardot singer as her 'winner' and that the two have discussed getting married on his vineyard in Melbourne.

He also said that the two talked about starting a winery together and Sophie said she'd 'love to do that.' who wouldn't !?!?

'The last thing I want to do is leave the mansion without Sophie...I'm committed to her 100 per cent' Jarrod has revealed he envisions a future with Sophie Monk as her 'winner'

Last week, Jarrod told OK! he has already planned a romantic proposal to Sophie and discussed having children with the star.

He told the publication: 'It'll involve Sophie and a helicopter ride to a hidden location.'

The Victorian-based reality star also said the pair have discussed the possibility of starting a family together. yep we heard you the first time - ... also "reality star" - come on! Just call him a Bachelor - these guys are hardly "stars"

'We've decided we want a boy and a girl...' Jarrod has said that he and Sophie Monk have discussed the possibility of starting a family together

'We've decided we want a boy and a girl... but no names, we haven't come down to that yet,' Jarrod admitted.

When asked if he will seek the approval and permission to propose from Sophie's family, he appeared to be less traditional on the topic.

'If they think we work together; great; if they think we don't, people can get over it and can work around that. It's not a deal-breaker,' he said. hmmm wonder if this signals the meeting her family visit went pear-shaped

'I don't want to disappoint my kids': The Bachelorette's 'winner' Stu Laundy reveals he's 'worried his children won't like' Sophie Monk
shouldn't he have thought about that BEFORE entering the show? - a bit like getting the divorce papers organised BEFORE the show ... but also - he's said his 2 youngest were huge fans and encouraged him to go on the show ...


He recently shocked Bachelorette Sophie Monk when he revealed he had a vasectomy.

And rumoured winner Stu Laundy has dropped another bombshell, confessing he's worried his children 'won't like' the former Bardot singer.

The father-of-four told TV Week he was 'concerned about letting his kids down' and is aware his children are watching the show at home.

Another confession: Stu Laundy dropped another bombshell in a recent interview revealing he's worried his children 'won't like' Sophie Monk

'I need to share my feelings with Sophie, but I have to be careful what I say,' he told the publication.

'I just hope Sophie feels I'm trustworthy,' the 44-year-old added.

Meanwhile, if Sophie and Stu do want children of their own, it might still be a possibility.

Despite having a vasectomy, Stu recently hinted that he may still be able to have children, thanks to some forward planning.

Careful: 'I need to share my feelings with Sophie, but I have to be careful what I say,' he told the publication.

In a post shared to Instagram over the weekend, Stu appeared to suggest that he had his sperm frozen before undergoing the male sterilisation procedure.

The Sydney millionaire shared a picture of his interview with the Financial Review, and wrote: 'For those not already sick of the topic of Stu.'

He added: 'Ps... final word.. some who have the chop plan ahead prior.' however those in a happy marriage with 4 children already don't usually feel the need to "plan ahead" - so I call BS on this one - because he says he was blindsided and heartbroken by wife leaving him ... so he didn't see it coming - so why the need to "plan ahead" ???

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Stu Laundy for clarification.

In Thursday's episode last week, Stu invited Sophie to enjoy a trip on his yacht, before dropping the bombshell that he may not be able to start a family with her.

Sophie was left gobsmacked by Stu's bombshell admission, telling the cameras: 'Hang on a minute. He knows I want to have children.'

Stu's suggestion that he has 'planned ahead' comes after he revealed how a fleeting encounter with Sophie was enough for him to sign up as a contestant.

He said he felt Sophie was the first person he 'clicked' with, after spending three years in the dating game following separation from his wife.

The heir to a half a billion dollar pub empire joined the show with a push from two of his daughters, despite not fitting the typical mold of the show's contestants, who are often aspiring models or actors.

'I really felt like Sophie and I clicked, all be it for ten minutes, but more so than I've clicked with anyone since my ex-wife,' the father-of-four told the Financial Review.

'I ummed and ahhed a lot ... and it was because of my kids [I joined the show]. My two little ones are big fans...'

Laying low: Stu also weighed in on the constant media speculation surrounding him, saying he is afraid to walk down the street for fear of being photographed with a woman and going on a highly popular TV show (and another one before that!) will really make this less of a thing!!

'I weighed up all the pros and cons and through several years of unhappiness, I just thought, this might be a path to happiness.'

The publican is down to the final three after receiving a rose from Sophie during hometown week.

SPOILER ALERT: Missing your new girlfriend? Bachelorette 'winner' Stu Laundy busted checking out photo of him and Sophie Monk

He's widely tipped to win The Bachelorette on Thursday night. (so they're advertising Final as being Wednesday - but its just the visits with her parents and finale will be Thursday - thought it was asking a lot to have finale on same night as parents meet up!)

And Stu Laundy is doing nothing to quell speculation he is now dating Sophie Monk, appearing to reveal a massive spoiler during a trip to the Gold Coast earlier this month.

The pub millionaire cut a contemplative figure as he gazed longingly at photo of him and Sophie Monk on Instagram.

The father of four travelled to Queensland earlier this month, reportedly for a golfing holiday with friends.

Taking some time out in the luxe lobby of his Gold Coast accommodation, Stu took a moment to catch up on social media.

Stu, who is the son of Sydney pub baron Arthur Laundy and heir to a $500 million fortune, appeared to pause over a photo he had shared online that day.

The Bachelorette favourite stopped to stare at a promotional photo he had shared of him and Sophie, smiling happily as they enjoyed their single date.

Photos of Stu's fond phone gazing come as the father of four revealed why a chance meeting with Sophie 12 months ago prompted him to go on The Bachelorette.

Time out: The father of four travelled to Queensland earlier this month, reportedly for a golfing holiday with friends - why reportedly? they did an article with photos of him playing golf - so its not reportedly - he went and playing gold with mates - Sophie was in Thailand - they didn't meet up there

Stu decided it was worth a shot, because he was yet to find love after being left heartbroken by his marriage breakdown five years ago.

'I weighed up all the pros and cons and through several years of unhappiness, I just thought, this might be a path to happiness,' he said.

[Mr Stickyfingers]

Can’t believe that you are so invested. I think it has been the best season of both franchises. Enjoyed you being there and thanks for Survivor. WTF are we going to do after this has finished?

...hahaha!... how kind of you to say so Beachsands... much appreciated... I'm so glad that you and others talked me over to coming into the Bach's seasons lol!... I've even had family and friends rib me about it big time but when I explain to them about what we say here in the forums they crack up laughing lol!... a couple of them have started to watch the shows themselves after hearing about the funnier aspects of the show... especially about clingwrap man Jarrod and 'pisspot-gate' lol!... so I'VE actually converted a couple of people over too lol!... and for that... I thank all that conned me into watching them...

Our homegrown Aussie reality shows are owning the international ones at the moment imo.
Having Mr Stickyfingers hooked on them has been a godsend, his enthusiasm (both for and against) is contagious.

...aw!... how kind of you too Meglos my friend... that is so nice of you to say so too... that is so much appreciated aswell... haha!... sometimes I think that my inane rants and ramblings on here must do peoples heads in at times so to hear that they don't by someone makes me feel 'normal' again lol!... my 'craziness' and 'inanities' when I sometimes go out on tangents sometimes make people just shake their heads and say "what is wrong with this guy?... where the hell does think these things up from?... he's a little boy that has never grown up!"... 99% or the time people laugh ... sometimes 1% don't... my friends and family say that my stupidity is infectious too so... (I'm guessing that's good... right?) lol!... thanks for the really kind words Beachsands and Meglos... cheers.

Is this proof APOLLO wins The Bachelorette? Unlikely favourite, 24, tipped for victory after Sophie Monk's best friend Oscar Gordon drops a telling Instagram clue

There's just three men left battling it out for Sophie Monk's heart on The Bachelorette.

Wealthy businessman Stu Laundy, 44, has long been touted as the frontrunner when it comes to capturing the 37-year-old star's affections.

But this week, a new clue has emerged that may point towards someone else being the one left standing at the end.

Unlikely winner? The Bachelorette's Apollo (left) is being tipped to win Sophie Monk's (right) heart after her best friend Oscar Gordon started following him on Instagram

In a telling sign that Apollo Jackson might win the show, Sophie Monk's best friend Oscar Gordon has started following the 24-year-old hunk on Instagram.

Adding weight to the rumours is the fact that Apollo is the only Bachelorette suitor that Oscar deemed worthy enough to follow on the social media platform.

Throughout the series, Sophie has made no secret of her physical attraction to Apollo, but she has questioned whether the 13-year age gap is too big for a relationship between them to work.

The only one? Apollo is the one Bachelorette suitor Oscar (left) follows on the platform

Can he beat Stu? Sophie has made no secret of her attraction to Apollo but has been widely tipped for months to chose 44-year-old publican Stu Laundy




Oscar has most recently made headlines for accompanying his close friend Sophie on an overseas holiday to Thailand.

While scenes of the former Bardot singer's love journey played out on TVs across the country, the pair lived in luxury during their lavish escape.

Sophie had previously revealed she headed overseas so as no to inadvertently spill who the winner is.

'I need to evacuate bcs people keep asking who won and I'm sh*t at lying,' she previously wrote on an Instagram Story post.

Too young? Sophie has expressed concern in the past that Apollo, 24, may be too young for her

Oscar and Sophie have since returned to Australia ahead of the highly anticipated Bachelorette finale.

As well as magician Apollo and publican Stu, vineyard manager Jarrod Woodgate is still in contention to be Sophie's number one pick.

Last week, 'bad boy' Blake was given the boot and notoriously swore and stormed off after the singer made her decision.

Still in the running: Aside from Apollo, Jarrod Woodgate (left) and Stu Laundy (right) are still in contention for Sophie's heart on The Bachelorette

'She was falling for him!' Claims Bachelorette Sophie Monk found 'the perfect guy' BEFORE filming started and was left 'heartbroken' after he refused to appear on the show
She's rumoured to have found love with publican Stu Laundy after wearing her heart on her sleeve in front of the nation on The Bachelorette.

But on Monday, it was reported that Sophie Monk found 'the perfect guy' before filming began after being introduced by mutual friend and AFL star Wayne Carey.

According to New Idea, the 37-year-old fell hard for entrepreneur Simon Potts and even asked him to appear on the show so their love could grow in front of the country - but was left 'heartbroken' after he pulled out.

The one that got away: On Monday, it was reported that Sophie Monk found 'the perfect guy' before filming began after being introduced by mutual friend and AFL star Wayne Carey

'It started as a bit of fun...but they began spending more time together and everyone could see she was falling for him,' revealed a friend of the star.

'He had a lot of qualities she liked and was very attracted to him. Also because he wasn't in the industry, it seemed even more perfect.'

And according to the publication she 'begged' him to line up as one of her potential suitors and although apprehensive, agreed to try.

What happened? 'It started as a bit of fun...but they began spending more time together and everyone could see she was falling for him'

'After hours and hours of intense meetings with producers, he just couldn't go through with it,' added the insider.

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Sophie's representatives for a comment.

And although allegedly worried she wouldn't find love after Simon on the show, it is believed that pub heir Stu Laundy has won her heart.

He won her over: And although allegedly worried she wouldn't find love after Simon on the show, it is believed that pub heir Stu Laundy has won her heart

Speaking to the Financial Review earlier in the week, the father-of-four said it was a matter of minutes before he had clicked with the former Bardot singer.

'I really felt like Sophie and I clicked, all be it for ten minutes but more so than I've clicked with anyone since my ex-wife,' he said.

Stu joins magician Apollo Jackson, 24, and vineyard manager Jarrod Woodgate, 31, in the final three.

The Bachelorette continues Wednesday and Thursday at 7:30pm on Ten.

Bachelorette Sophie Monk's secret boyfriend revealed
The one she's kept hidden from Australia. - by New Idea
Oct 2017

Channel 10

She said she was putting her heart on the line in hope of finding a decent 'Aussie bloke', after a string of failed relationships...but it appears Sophie Monk isn't quite as unlucky in love as it seems.

In a twist set to rock The Bachelorette, New Idea can exclusively reveal the pretty blonde had previously found the man of her dreams ahead of filming - Melbourne entrepreneur Simon Potts.

While the relationship ended before filming commenced in June, according to a friend, Sophie begged him to join the other contestants vying for her heart.

Meeting earlier this year at the Crown Casino through a mutual friend - former AFL play Wayne Carey - the chemistry between the pair was instantaneous.

'Sophie took one look at Simon, walked over, sat on his knee and introduced herself,' a friend spills.

Simon Potts

Instagram
'Then she grabbed his phone and put her number in, insisting he take her on a date.'

Blown away by her confidence and having no idea she had signed up to be Australia'a first celebrity Bachelorette, Simon called the following day and took the reality star out.

Confiding in friends that she didn't want to let him go because she truly saw a future with the handsome Melbourne businessman, Sophie admitted she was torn.

'He had a lot of qualities she liked and was very attracted to him. Also because he wasn't in the industry, it seemed even more perfect,' the insider explains. 'She knew there were a whole heap of guys ready to meet her on the show, but she worried none of them would be as good as Simon.'


In news that broke Sophie's heart, Simon told her he didn't want to be on a reality television show and didn't feel right about the situation.

just goes to show what sort of a "friend" Kyle is to Sophie when he speaks about her "climbing a mountain of men" the way he does ...
this was back in April 2017 = Daily Fail as per usual ... but because this other guy she's supposed been seeing just before the show started was a friend of Wayne Carey .. thought its kinda relevant on a boring monday afternoon ...

'Hell no': Sophie Monk denies she is dating former AFL star Wayne Carey and says she's 'still single'

Sophie Monk has denied that she is dating controversial former AFL player Wayne Carey.

The former Bardot star spoke out about romance rumours with the sportsman on The Kyle And Jackie O on Monday.

Her admission came after Kyle read an article about the alleged relationship live on-air.

She's still single! Sophie Monk has denied that she is dating controversial former AFL player Wayne Carey

Kyle read: 'Wayne Carey and Sophie Monk are rumoured to be making whoopee,' an outdated term for sex, which their producer Bruno clarified.

Wanting to congratulate their good friend Sophie, the breakfast duo went straight to the source.

'It's been a long mountain she's climbed of men, imagine that giant mountain of men that you're climbing up trying to find the one, and I'm very happy for her,' Kyle said.

No romance here: The former Bardot star spoke out about romance rumours with the sportsman (pictured here) on The Kyle And Jackie O on Monday

Outed: Her admission came after Kyle read an article about the alleged relationship live on-air

It can't be true: Jackie said she didn't believe the rumor was true

Eering on the side of caution, Jackie said she didn't believe the rumor was true.

But Kyle was quick to sarcastically quip that if it was in the newspaper it must be true, listing all the men she had been with including Kim Kardashian's ex Ray-J, actor Sam Worthington and Jason Statham.

'Congratulations about Wayne Carey,' he sarcastically said.

'I read it in the paper and I said out of all the men she could've chosen, you've chosen a bloke who roots his mates girlfriends, I thought what a choice!

No way: Sophie also denied the 'lame' rumour on Instagram, telling her fans she hoped it would go away soon




Kyle, direct as ever, asked the Gold-Coast beauty if she was in fact dating the former football player.

'Hell no,' she emphatically said.

Sophie, who also made a social media post denying the alleged relationship, went on to explain: '[What] happened is I went to a restaurant, he was at the restaurant, I met him, spoke to him for a little bit and that was all.'

Wanting to further clear up any potential misunderstandings, Kyle asked her if there was anything physical or kissing that happened between them, which she once again denied.

Annoyed that her coincidental meeting with Wayne transformed into a rumor, she said, 'I feel like if you've got a public name and you meet someone else with a public name, that's it.'

In the past, Sophie has dated Benji Madden and was engaged to businessman Jimmy Esebag in 2011 before calling it off

Coincidental meeting: Sophie explained that the pair met at a restaurant and only had a chat

Haha, #simonftw! We know absolutely nothing about him (and he isn't carrying around a potplant), thus making him instantaneously more compatible to Sophie than the three remaining guys.
