  • 04 May 2018

Channel Ten announced last week that Bachelor and Bachelor In Paradise star Ali Oetjen will have her third chance at love, starring as the franchise's fourth Bachelorette. 

But, former co-star Jarrod Woodgate has slammed the blonde reality star for being given the prestigious role. 

Speaking to Nova's Fitzy & Wippa, Jarrod audibly groaned when he was asked about Channel Ten's casting decision, claiming Oetjen was 'lame and boring.'

We're delighted to announce that @alioetjen will be Australia's next #BacheloretteAU! 🌹 After appearing on Bachelor In Paradise, unfortunately distance proved too big a hurdle for Ali & Grant. Eager to make it third time lucky in love, Ali is ready to call the shots.

Jarrod, who found love on Bachelor In Paradise will fellow co-star Keira Maguire, was asked by the radio hosts how he thought Ali would perform in the new role.

The vineyard manager, who was joined by girlfriend Keira, moaned: 'Ugh, next question.' 

Keira swiftly stepped in: 'This was why I was worried about interviews this morning. Babe, you need to hold back and not say everything that comes to your mind.'

The hosts asked Jarrod if he had 'bad blood' with Ali, but Keira answered for him with a laugh. 

'He does like her, he's just worried she's going to have a hard time choosing,' she said.

How Hot is My Boyfriend!!!!!!! Jarrod you Truely are the man of my dreams & not only was it hard to hold back while in paradise to tell you I love you ... the last 6 months hiding how I feel about you from the world has been the most challenging time of my life.. so FINALLY everybody I want you all to know I LOVE U @jarrodwoodgate 💕🌍🙌🏻

Jarrod confessed,  'Honestly, she was on the island for a long time and basically all we saw was, well, very lame and boring.'

'I don't know how it's going to go,' he continued.

The radio hosts continued to laugh, as Keira remarked: 'I thought I was controversial. Sh**!' 

Jarrod didn't stop there, adding on Nova 100’s Chrissie, Sam & Browny: 'I think it’s going to be boring. It’s going to be boring...Her as a person. All she did on Paradise was either tan, lay there and that’s it.'
