When the lovestruck hopefuls packed their bags and left the Bachelor Mansion due to the coronavirus lockdown earlier this year, they held onto every hope they’d return to fight for Locky Gilbert’s love.
But speaking to Woman’s Day, a close source reveals the handsome Survivor star, 30, almost threw away the entire show after a boozy night in his hometown of Perth left the girls reeling!
Attending a party and getting wild with a bevy of women, including Married At First Sight star Aleks Markovic in May, Locky’s wandering eye and loose lips are said to have almost derailed the show.
“He had seven girls in the running when he left and he mentioned on numerous occasions he wasn’t into any of them!” dishes our source.
“He openly said he was going through the motions of filming and going on Zoom dates to appease producers,” the source reveals.
Things are said to have become so loose the girls were left fuming on set when they found out about Locky’s antics. The frontrunners felt nothing short of “betrayed”.
