CONFIRMED: The new Bachelorette for 2019 is this EPIC reality TV star

This is going to be one exciting season! - by Milly Haddrick
  • 29 Mar 2019

Get excited Bachie fans, because a widely adored Gogglebox star is going to be our new Bachelorette! 

It’s a secret TV bosses have been desperate to hide but New Idea can exclusively reveal who the new Bachelorette Australia is going to be – reality star Angie Kent! 

WATCH EXCLUSIVE: Angie Kent announces she’s the new Bachelorette

The 29-year-old from the Sunshine Coast is set to start filming The Bachelorette in just a matter of weeks and has signed on the dotted line to follow in the footsteps of other The Bachelorette alumni Ali Oetjen and Sophie Monk and search for love on national TV.

Angie is no stranger to the world of reality TV. She shot to fame on Gogglebox with partner in crime Yvie Jones, and then more recently was in the final five of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here.

Since she returned from South Africa - where I'm a Celebrity was filmed - earlier this year, Angie has been enjoying time off with her family and friends, but now she’s ready to go back on TV in her search for love.

Oh. My. Days! I'm back on social media-ish.! I'm scared to go back to the norm. I miss smelling of fire and mainly only showering in a waterfall. This is my first post since being booted from the most surreal, intense, emotional, next level experience of my life! It's been almost 2 days since I've slept and left the jungle so it's safe to say I'm quite the zombie. I just wanted to thank everyone who voted for me! My beautiful best friends and manager who ran my social pages @robertverschuer @stageaddiction @sarmcguire ...my amazing friends and family who I'm more than sure supported and voted for me! And everyone who I don't know who voted too! All your votes did not go to waste my dear babooz, because every time you texted to save my fat, sweaty, awkward head, money went to my charity of choice @mission_aust ! Amazing -a -ling! Now listen, @imacelebrityau has been an absolute solid gold kick in the dick, but my god, I loved every moment, and I truly didn't want to leave. The South African jungle was my home. @drchrisbrown and @ladyjuliamorris were everything I dreamed of and more. Massive thanks to them and the whole production team. What a bunch of heart throbs. I've had the best time and I refuse to let the outside world aka social media, get in the way of how magical that experience was, and how hard I worked to face my fears, stripped from all vices and comforts and get through every, sometimes ground hog and sometimes anxiety ridden day. No one knows how next level the journey is unless they've done it, or worked on it ! And I'm so stoked with it all! Im slightly scared to come back to reality! I've loved my intense but simple jungle life! Now to see if my gal @yvie_jones will take home the crown 👑 or the legend that is @shanebcrawford OR my jungle soul mate, big daddy @the_richardreid ...tough competition and they all deserve to win! But there can only be one! This Sunday y'all will see! Be there, or be square or somethin 👊🏼✊🏼 #imacelebrityau #southafrica #missionaustralia #junglefever #junglehurrdontcurr

Angie shot to fame in Googlebox with her best friend Yvie Jones and became famous for her epic one-liners.

Close friends of Angie say she took some persuading to appear on another reality show but now she’s ready for a fresh challenge in her life.

A close family member revealed that Angie is hopeful about finding love on the TV show, but she’s not desperate for a man in her life. “She’s a really simple girl who loves living near the beach,’ he said. “She loves her family and loves her dogs. If she finds a man who hates dogs – he’d be out straight away.”
