They signed up with hopes of finding love with Australia’s most eligible bachelor Matt Agnew.
But instead, it seems eliminated contestant Vakoo Kauapirura and Rachael Arahill have fallen head over heels for each other.
In yet another Bachelor bombshell set to send shock waves across the nation, intimate pictures have emerged of the two reality TV beauties sharing a passionate kiss while out on a dinner date together.

Ditching their cocktail party frocks, the pair opted for casual attire as they sipped wine and cosied up together at a Sydney restaurant last week.
At one point, 24-year-old model Vakoo was seen placing her hand gently on Rachael’s face as they locked lips for several seconds before sharing a toast.
A source claims: “Rachael and Vakoo formed a really strong friendship in the mansion and their feelings for each other quickly developed into something more. They ended up hooking up in the mansion one night after one of the first cocktail parties. It was never filmed and producers never found out about it.
“They started spending lots of time together after that. The girls would always see them together, going for walks alone, and started to question if they were more than friends but they never confirmed it.
“Rachael told producers one night in her piece-to-camera that if things didn’t work out with Matt she had ‘plan B’ – and everyone thought she was referring to a crew member or someone back home, and it became this big scandal in the house, but she was actually talking about Vakoo.
“Rachael and Vakoo are still together but have been keeping things on the down-low since they got out.”
The pair’s secret rendezvous comes after months of social media flirting and just days after reports surfaced suggesting series villain Rachael had hooked up with a producer on the show behind the scenes.
“Thankful we went on this crazy journey or I wouldn’t of met my soulmate,” Rachael, who previously worked in the adult entertainment industry, captioned a snap of her and Vakoo on Instagram, to which Vakoo responded: “I love you so much!”
Adding further fuel to the fire, Vakoo all but confirmed she’d found love in the mansion following her elimination in
a cryptic Instagram post.
“I may not have found love with the Bach but I found love with some extraordinary women,” she shared.
And, as it turns out, the women vying for Matt’s heart have become intimate on more than one occasion during their stint in the mansion.
“We all showed each other our vaginas,” Vakoo told Kyle and Jackie O earlier this month.
“It’s fascinating. You’re looking and you’re like, ‘wow, so yours is like that? Mine’s a bit different’.”
