‘The Bachelors Australia’: Lauren Is Ready to Find Someone She Vibes With

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 Thomas’ heart on The Bachelors Australia this year is 28-year-old Lauren, from Queensland.

Outgoing and extroverted, Lauren is a sporty, outdoorsy kind of gal who’s all about setting and reaching new fitness goals. As a business owner, well, she’s kicking goals there, too, but now, it’s time to turn her attention to one neglected area of her life — her love life.

“I applied for the show as I run a business and am too busy to date,” she said in a press statement.

Now, Lauren is hoping that “taking time out of work will allow [her] to venture into dating”, and at 28, she’s confident she knows what she’s looking for.

Lauren prides herself on being very spiritual, so she often goes “off energy and vibes” when it comes to romantic connection.

“I like a more masculine energy as I am a feminine energy,” she said, but clarified that it has to be “masculine energy without ego”.

While looks aren’t “the biggest deal” to Lauren, her perfect partner would be “healthy, happy, energetic, full of life and love” and someone who is “open”.

“I find someone more and more attractive with their morals, how they hold themselves how they speak to others and how they think,” she said. “A healthy, smart mentality is the more attractive to me.”

As for deal breakers, Lauren said that anyone who doesn’t “look after their space/environment or their mental and physical health” is a no-go for her.

Will Thomas be the right vibe for Lauren? Only time will tell. Until then…

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