Bachelorette Angie chooses Carlin as fans rally for Timm

Another Bachelorette finale. Another case of fans insisting the wrong guy won.

It was a finale that would have had Goggleboxers yelling at their TV…. The Bachelorette‘s Angie chose the “wrong” guy -according to many on social media- and just where was the host?

Angie Kent chose 30-year-old fitness trainer (and occasional model / actor) Carlin over Melbourne fireproofer Timm, in a picturesque setting in Byron Bay.

That’s despite the show sewing the seeds of doubt over whether Carlin was genuine about his intentions.

“You’re usually not my type of guy. You’re very put together and I’m not put together. I’m not perfect,” Angie told him.

“There’s no doubt in my mind now. I feel like you’re the perfect guy for me and I’m completely falling in love with you.”

“I’m falling in love with you too,” he replied.

“You have no idea how happy I am right now.”

But fans were still recovering from the show’s stronger drama in Angie’s rejection of Timm.

“You’re the person who makes me laugh all the time and I feel like you’re my soulmate. I do. I love so much about you. I love everything that we’ve had and a piece of me is, like, I can’t picture my life without you,” she had told Timm.

But as it became clear he was not her guy, the tears began.

“Don’t cry,” he insisted.

“I’ve cherished every moment with you,” he added.“I love Carlin. If I could pick anyone to treat you how you deserve to be treated, it’s him. Please don’t be sad.”

It was a classy response to a national TV dumping. But it was with much irony given the Gogglebox cast have previously shouted abuse at their TV sets over Bachelorettes choosing the “wrong” guy.

After he walked away, Timm was clearly crushed by the decision. Already fans are calling on 10 to cast him as the next Bachelor. Could his larrikin personality echo the success of Nick “Honey Badger” Cummins?

As for the reason Osher Gunsberg was absent….. His wife was in labour at the time. Ok fair point.

Should Timm be the next Bachelor on 10?

  1. I haven’t watched even a snippet of the show, but Carlin is very attractive and quiet and boring isn’t all that bad. I’ve had a few Soulmates in my life, one was my High School English teacher who told me she and I were soulmates when I left school, and we truly were, but soulmate doesn’t always equate to love in the romantic sense.

  2. Phew, she dodged a bullet by avoiding Timmmmm, but I also agree that Carling seems a bit dull. Sometimes boring is better for you than a man child..

  3. I think she chose the right guy. Timm was an Aussie larikin, funny, sweet etc. To me 24hrs with Timm would do my head in. Pls no Timm for Bach, would much rather Cirrian, now that would he fun!

  4. Terrible winner. He was hardly shown in the first half of the season he is so boring! I get it though she needs to try a different type and see if it works long term, none of the final 3 were worthy of her on my opinion. I would have preferred timm but dont think they would have lasted long term. Dissapointed though with the ending.

  5. Well I must be alone I thought she should have picked Ryan. Timm seems like a fun guy but not someone you want to spend your life with. I don’t think anything can compare to Jarrod’s longest beach walk ever crying all the way. Why were they in Byron Bay? Don’t they usually go to some exotic overseas location? Last season with Matt they went to South Africa. Did that use up all their budget?

    1. God yeah ! Carlin has the personality of a cardboard cutout- figure . Very bland.
      Tim seems like a lovely genuine person but way too ” young in the head ” for Angie . More like a little brother to her.
      Actually thought Ciarran, the Brit with the bleached blonde hair, was the best match for Angie .But judging by recent media stories, he’s well and truly moved on..

  6. I give them 6 months! Wouldn’t be surprised to learn they have broken up already. Carlin is not genuine- even his brother said he was on the show to further his acting and modelling career!
    Tim is a nice guy but not the right bloke to be the Bachelor

  7. I don’t think she knows who she wants, how can you tell someone they are your soulmate and they make you laugh and make you happy then reject them ??? I thought Carlin was a bit on the ‘sleazy’ side and had thought Timm would win…but there you go !!
