THE BACHELORS 'NO ONE CAN TOP THIS SEASON!'

Three's usually a crowd, but not on this year's search for love

Of course they’re biased, but the 2023 Bachelors – Jed McIntosh, 25, Thomas Malucelli, 35, and Felix Von Hofe, 27 – say fans are in for a treat when they tune in to this revamped season of the reality dating show.

“I would be surprised if anyone could top it,” Felix tells Woman’s Day. “The fairy lights are out, the red carpets are out and as far as the proposals go, there are some exciting things that happen and I can’t wait for everyone to witness what that will be.”

Did the past success stories from The Bachelor give you confidence in the process?

THOMAS I think everyone wants to love and be loved and The Bachelor's so amazing because it's one of the few shows that actually does have success.

JED You get to know someone on a very personal level without talking about who won the footy on the weekend. You throw the small talk out, you get straight into the deep stuff.

Were you a bit disappointed when you knew there were going to be other Bachelors?

FELIX I was excited! I come from a team sport background. So I've always thought everything is better done with your mates by your side. And, of course, we didn't know who was going to be by our side at that point but it's all turned out pretty well.
