‘The Bachelors Australia’: Angela Is a Perfectionist Looking For a Perfect Love

January 3, 2023

Well, folks, The Bachelors‘ summer of love is finally here, and this season, things are going to be different.

Past seasons of The Bachelor Australia have featured helicopter dates over Sydney’s picturesque harbours, where our Bachelor would woo his date for the day. Then, they’d head back to the candle-lit mansion dripping in fairy lights for an elaborate Rose Ceremony, where each week, he’d whittle down the women vying for his affection one by one.

This season, all of that is changing.

First, and perhaps most importantly, there are three Bachelors — Jed McIntosh, Felix Von Hofe, and Thomas Malucelli — looking for love this year, and if the promos are anything to go by, at least one of them will pop the question by the end of the series.

Secondly, the show has relocated to Queensland’s sunny Gold Coast. The girls are residing in a waterfront mansion, but there’s not a twinkle light or candle in sight, promising a sleeker, more modern version of The Bachelors than we’ve seen in past seasons.

Finally, the promos show a more dynamic, less linear path to love, for both our Bachelors and the girls in the mansion. As we’ve seen, there are girls who reject our Bachies, and some who may be keen to switch Bachelors along the way.

All in all, it’s set to be an exciting season, and with the first promos introducing the women vying for our Bachelors’ hearts dropping, it’s time to get to know them.

One of the women vying for Jed’s heart on The Bachelors Australia this year is 25-year-old Angela, from Victoria.

A perfectionist at heart, Angela is on the hunt for “The One”, and she’s not willing to settle for anything less.

“I have come to realise over the years that I am a perfectionist, in all aspects of my life, but particularly when it comes to men and relationships,” she said in a press statement.

She does, however, suspect that this perfectionism is one of the reasons she’s still single.

“I am one to notice an almost insignificant red flag and immediately become hesitant in continuing to date the person,” she explained. “It comes down to wanting to settle down and be married once, and to do it right.”

The perfect love for Angela would be one that is exciting and bold, and with someone who allows her to continue living her life to the fullest, and she’s sure that love is out there. Once she finds that special love, then it’s on — we’re talking marriage, kids, and two German shepherds to fill out her dream life.

Angela has been in love twice before, but admits that it doesn’t come easy to her.

“I’m dead-scared of being vulnerable,” she said, “as well as being someone who doesn’t take love lightly.”

Asked to compare her life up to this point to a romantic comedy, Angela said it’s got to be Bridget Jones’s Diary.

“She’s content in her career and yet seems to always allow herself to get in the way of being in a loving relationship,” Angela explained. “Over-focusing on red flags and over-looking the good signs are things I do too, Bridge!”

Will Jed be the Mr Darcy that Angela is looking for? Only time will tell. Until then…

The Bachelors Australia premieres on January 9, only on 10 and 10 Play on Demand.
