She’s been portrayed as The Bachelor Australia’s vixen who will stop at nothing to win Matt’s final rose, and apparently Abbie Chatfield’s seductive ways aren’t just reserved for the cameras.
The 23-year-old property analyst from Queensland is said to have been chatting to eligible bachelors off-screen, too!
“Abbie has been talking to multiple guys on Instagram, including MAFS’ Billy Vincent and last year’s runner-up from Ali Oetjen’s season of The Bachelorette, Todd King,” a source tells New Idea.
“She’s even planning to meet up with Todd once the finale airs.”

While the nature of their chats remains unknown, it seems Abbie is definitely keeping her options open!
Meanwhile, another source claims Abbie has been bragging to the girls about “a hot new lover”.
“I am dating someone, but I can’t say who it is,” she apparently gushed to another contestant.
“I wish I could tell you, but I can’t.”
But with Abbie also said to be hinting that she’s been secretly meeting up with Matt, after letting slip that they’d been chatting regularly on Instagram, only time will tell who she really ends up with!
Meanwhile, things with Helena seem to have taken a turn.
According to a source, Helena Sauzier was so fed up with Matt showing little interest in her, she tried to quit the show during the hometown visits, which air this week.
“She felt, judging by the way Matt was treating her, he wasn’t going to pick her in the end – he kept getting simple things about her wrong and she ended up having a meltdown at home visits,” a source tells New Idea.
“She told producers she was staying in Perth because she didn’t see any point in coming back to Sydney to finish filming and she gave Matt a letter explaining her decision. But in the end producers and Matt begged her to stay.”
The 25-year-old’s intentions to leave the show apparently had a lot to do with her parents not warming to Matt.
And things aren’t looking any rosier for Emma.
After being portrayed as the season’s “stage-five clinger”, it seems it’s all become too much for Emma Roche.
The 31-year-old fashion brand manager from Sydney apparently “cries about Matt every day”.
“She doesn’t want to leave the house because she is super anxious,” a source claims.
“She’s almost become a recluse – the whole situation is really affecting her. Emma is normally a really private person but all the public scrutiny has become too much for her.”
