Media tries to spoil Bachelor finale (again)

Updated: TEN denies a "damage control" meeting after telltale paparazzi photos published. No spoilin' here.

Paparazzi photos published by Daily Mail Australia have attempted to upstage the finale for The Bachelor Australia.

According to a News Corp media report, it was enough to trigger “emergency meetings” within TEN.

The photos published yesterday (includes spoilers) detailed an elaborate ruse with cars and a remaining contestant at her home and Matty J. at a Blue Mountains getaway and suggested it confirmed a series winner.

“The car drove erratically, making a U-turn on a main road and running through several red lights,” it suggests.

Daily Mail, which can’t get enough of TEN’s dating show with Matty J., published a detailed timeline of events.

“The car that dropped him off was seen circling the block for 15 minutes, before the driver returned, parked, and brought a backpack and smaller bag into Matty’s home,” it continued.

Daily Mail has previously spoiled the TEN series, notably in 2015 when photos of Sam Frost & Sasha Mielczarek kissing in hotel room hours were published before the finale aired, triggering a court injunction.

In June the NSW Supreme Court made orders that prohibited the publication of some finale photos that directly or indirectly identified the top four, the top two and the finalist of season five.

A TEN spokeswoman said they hoped viewers continued to watched the show and not believe everything they read.

Updated: TEN said despite the headlines, no “emergency meeting” was held by the network.

“Media interest in The Bachelor Australia increases every year, which is testament to the enduring popularity of the show,” the network said in a statement.

  1. I really hate this type of thing. Time they get some big fines for doing that. Is ch9 behind this David? Either directly or indirectly or is it just a garbage media site? Very mad about this happening. Thanks for exposing it here David. People need to know what dirty games are played at times 🙁
