Golden Bachelor Getaway Unveils Exciting Plot Twist

A significant spoiler for the Golden Bachelor has seemingly emerged after photos from an upcoming group date showed one contestant missing. The popular reality show, featuring the charming Barry ‘Bear’ Myrden as the lead, premiered last week on Nine and has quickly captured attention across social media platforms. However, recent images taken in March revealed the absence of a fan-favorite contestant from the forthcoming group date. This has led to speculation that she might not receive a rose on Tuesday night, hinting at an unexpected elimination twist. In these photos, contestants were seen competing for Bear’s affection during a bonding activity that involved an overnight excursion. The women were paired up and sent on a camping adventure in motorhomes, designed to see who best complements Bear’s adventurous nature. Captured together were pairs including Catherine and Lauren, Elizete and Pip, Bianca and Gera, Jan and Janette, Kim and Shamse, while Terri was notably paired with someone from the production team. However, Abbie Chatfield’s mum Laura appeared to be missing from the activity, sparking speculation of a shock exit. During the first episode of the Nine series’ inaugural season, Laura revealed she had followed in the footsteps of her daughter, who appeared on the seventh season of The Bachelor. ‘It feels surreal being here because one of my beautiful daughters, I’m proud to say, has been on The Bachelor as well,’ the 64-year-old said in her piece to camera. Fans were then shown a sweet glimpse of Abbie and Laura’s relationship as the excited mum picked out dresses in preparation for the show while her daughter hyped her up. She went on to say that her TV personality daughter advised her to go on the show because Abbie is ‘concerned that I’m still by myself’. The camera then showed the reality star cheering on her mum as she tried on a pink frock, which she ultimately wore during her piece to camera. Fans flooded X with reactions to what some called a ‘nepotism storyline’. ‘Laura is Abbie Chatfield’s mum?’ one person wrote, with a picture below that read: ‘The whole system is rigged.’ One person savagely penned: ‘If Abbie’s mum is anything like her daughter, she needs to be eliminated immediately.’ ‘Abbie Chatfield’s mum is there for love?’ one person wrote, accompanied by a graphic that read: ‘Yeah right’. One person predicted that Laura’s famous relative would get in the way of her winning the Golden Bachelor. ‘I know someone who won’t win. It’s that silly Abbie Chatfield’s mother, unfortunately for her mum,’ they shared. Fans had been gearing up to see Abbie’s mum, Laura, have her big moment with Bear in the first episode. However, the moment fell flat as her anticipated debut amounted to barely a minute of airtime. ‘Welcome to the mansion,’ Bear eagerly said to Laura as she approached him for the first time. ‘Beautiful, isn’t it? My name’s Laura,’ she replied, before the brief exchange came to an abrupt end. The Golden Bachelor airs at 7.30pm on Tuesday on Channel 9 and 9Now.
