It’s that time of the year again.

The time where The Bachelor aka Matt Agnew will whisk his final two to South Africa, before picking just one to spend his life with or um, dump ASAP to get back with a previous contestant à la Blake Garvey.

Before we embark on this journey, we thought we should find out what all the runners-up from all seasons of bothThe BachelorandThe Bachelorettehave been up to, and remember what they went through.

Hopefully, they got over their heartbreak quicker than we did.

The Bachelor

Season One – Rochelle Emanuel-Smith

In 2013, we had our first Aussie taste of the international franchise. We didn’t realise we’d be so devastated when Tim Robards chose Anna Heinrich, not because Anna isn’t amazing, but just because we were so unprepared for the brutal nature of the decision Tim had to make.

And neither was a gracious, but very sad, Rochelle.

Luckily, a glance at her Instagram shows she’s been living her best life ever since, thank you very much.

After the show, she spent time modelling in London. Now she’s into veganism and yoga, and she’s also been studying at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.

Season Two – Lisa Hyde

Who could forget 2014 season two’s bachelor, Blake Harvey? Super smooth, even when he rejected winner Sam Frost without explanation, weeks after the show finished filming.

After that, there was the general consensus that Lisa had dodged a bullet, and looking at her life now, she’d most definitely agree.

Work-wise, she created a sunglasses range. Personally, after an appearance in the first season of Bachelor in Paradise, she found love with partner Damon Collina, and just this month, the couple welcomed baby daughter, Myja.

Season Three – Lana Jeavons-Fellows

Lana had her work cut out for her in 2015 when she was introduced into Sam Woods’ season as an intruder, but she managed to make it all the way to runner-up, losing only to the incredible (and unbeatable) single mum powerhouse, Snezana Markoski (now Wood).

(Sorry, we’re just a little bit biased, here.)

It was clear that Lana expected and hoped to win, but alas, it wasn’t to be. For months afterwards, she did interviews explaining her heartbreak.

Fast forward a few years, Lana seems to be all set with almost 43,000 followers on Instagram, and all the influencer work and endorsements that entails.

She’s also a professional yoga teacher, and has happily been with partner Jake for about three years.

Season Four – Nikki Gogan

Oh, this decision by bachelor Richie Strahan in 2016 broke the nation’s collective heart.

Super sweet Nikki was a fan favourite from the start, and the whole country wanted a win for her so badly.

Of course, she was gracious in her defeat; while audiences reeled from Richie’s first choice of Alex Nation (and had thoughts about the dress she was wearing in the finale).

Nikki returned to Perth and her life as a real estate agent. Last year, she announced that she was engaged to partner, Bill.

Season Five – Elise Stacey

The runner-up in 2017’s season with Matty Johnson, Elise – a former Hockeyroo – had flown under the radar until about mid-way through, when she became a real contender with Laura Byrne.

In true, understated and graceful Elise style, she took the rejection at the final rose ceremony, well – but was very disappointed in her heart.

These days, Elise runs a company which sells ‘gift bundles’ (Something Els), and has seemed to find love with partner Justin Kosmina, the son of former Adelaide United coach John Kosmina.

Season Six – Sophie Tieman and Brittany Hockley
