Arrange a time for your new boyfriend to finally meet your five-year-old son? Err….
It’s a little known fact that Alex Nation, the 24-year-old who won Richie’s heart on the latest season of The Bachelor, is a SINGLE MOTHER.
(I know, it was a total shock when we found out, too!)
Listen to the latest episode of Bach Chat:
After keeping her five-year-old son off our screens during the season, it turns out Richie still hasn’t met the totally adorable Elijah, which is kind of a big deal.

You're kidding me? They still haven't met? So how is this 'man on TV with mummy' being explained to the little guy?
Yes! That's what i don't understand.
I know how hard it is dating as a single parent, and wanting to wait to introduce your kid. But, they flaunt their relationship all over the media. I find it really strange how public they are.
I feel sorry for the kid. He seems to not be very important to her, her 15 mins of fame seems more important. A shame.
Just because they haven't met doesn't mean they haven't explained that mum's dating someone. Probably not a bad idea to make sure the relationship has a bit of staying power before letting the kid get too attached.
Mum's dating someone is a bit different to mum's dating someone whose head is all over the TV. I'm a single parent and I kept my dates far away from my kids until the time was right but none of them were 'celebrities' whom my young kids could see me with while they are their cornflakes. How confusing for him. I bet it was left up to his dad to do the explaining.
I look forward to the Woman's Day/New Idea/Who/NW etc article that will cover this most 'private' meeting.
Where they most certainly "won't" be accepting any money for the most private photos.
