These Are The Women Predicted To Win 'The Bachelor' 2018

Mrs Honey Badger, is that you? - by Maddison Urquhart

These Are The Women Predicted To Win 'The Bachelor' 2018

Nick Cummins (AKA ‘The Honey Badger’) has finally made his reality television debut as the star of The Bachelor Australia season six. 

Like our other favourite Bachie shows, The Bachelorette and Bachelor In Paradise, there's only ever one question that remains everyone's lips: who will win the final rose?!

After watching the first three episodes, we've rounded up our top contenders based on compatibility with the Honey Badger - and a pinch of wild guessing.

1. Sophie Tieman

Rumours of Sophie being a finalist have been circulating for a few weeks now, however, the blonde bombshell's latest revelation on social media has us convinced she could possibly be crowned this season's winner.

Apart from the fact that her bio states that she "loves to explore the outdoors and describe her as loud and outgoing" (Can anyone else see the similarities?), the property developer recently revealed in an Instagram post that she has moved from Brisbane to Sydney and is now residing in the Northern Beaches - right next to the leading man himself. 

2. Brittany Hockley

Not one to do things by halves, known to love a good adventure and with a love life resembling that of a bear in hibernation, this seemed like a logical idea. Join me on possibly my biggest adventure yet... The Badgelor.🍯🌹 Come ride the lollercoaster this Wednesday 7.30pm on TEN #TheBachelorAU @thebachelorau

Brittany not only scored the first (consensual) kiss of the season, she was also born in the exact same town - and hospital - as The Honey Badger. Nick loves that Brittany has travelled the world and the two seem totally on the same page. Plus, when he chatted to Fitzy and Wippa Nick hinted he ends up with a brunette: "In the past, they have actually been sandy blonde… and that's why I've had a big changer." But he's not the only one hinting: when a friend commented on Brittany's Instagram, saying, "Britt we are all enjoying the journey but just tell us what we really want…. Am [I] going heavy on Sportsbet or not???" The bachelorette coyly responded by liking the comment.

3. Brooke Blurton

Another brunette the Honey Badger could have been alluding to have won his heart, Brooke ticks all Nick's boxes. He previously told us his perfect woman "someone who is unconditional in their approach and service to others in life - as in giving back to those less fortunate and living a life of meaning." Brooke is not only a youth worker, but she's also into rugby and these two definitely have chemistry.

4. Cassandra Wood 

the bachelor

Yes, we know, we've seen the diary too. But apparently, the Home & Away extra is tipped to redeem herself and end up as a front-runner, due to her previous romantic past with Cummins, her passion for sports and, well, having her eye firmly on the prize. The Daily Mail pointed out that both Cass' siblings recently followed Nick on Instagram - something they probably wouldn't do if things continued the way they're going. 

5. Shannon Baff

Shannon was the first out of the car and was given a fair bit of airtime - both similar to that of previous finalists (yes, we've watched this show before), and then she scored the first single date with the Honey Badger. Plus she's gorgeous, funny and Nick was clearly pretty smitten with the 25-year-old painter.
