Just months after leaving the show, Drew from The Bachelorette has a new lady-love.
Drew Woolford, known on The Bachelorette for his man bun and nice-guy personality, has officially gone public with his new relationship.
And the fact that his girlfriend’s name is Sam — and that she’s a 26-year-old brunette, just like Sam Frost — is not lost on the long-haired Queenslander.
“She’s 26, she’s a brunette and she’s named Sam. Yes, I know,” Drew told AAP.
“I’m the least unoriginal person in the world… she’s 26, brunette and her name is Sam. I kid you not! I’m dead serious,” he told PopSugar.
But he hastened to add: “but she doesn’t get too jealous over Sam!”
Drew, 31, was spotted publicly with his girlfriend Samii Lawson late last months in his home town of Brisbane.
And while the two were pictured kissing on a beach in the paparazzi shots that captured the outing, they’ve admitted the relationship is not yet serious.
“Drew and I have only been together for a short while, although we have a strong bond, marriage is not on the table at this point in time,” Ms Lawson told Daily Mail Australia.
Tattooed Queenslander Ms Lawson is clearly pleased to have Drew all to herself now, though.
She wrote on Facebook after his final episode aired:
“So I can happily say that Drew did not receive a rose! Now you can all be mine and not the rest of Australia’s haha xxx.”
As for Drew, he’s enjoying being himself in his new relationship.
“With Sam [Frost], I didn’t actually get to be more of my usual whimsical, retarded self. I’ve had that outlet since, obviously,” he said.
He’s previously said his hair’s appearance on camera has inspired him to get a trim.
“I really do need to cut my hair,” he told AAP.
“It’s a sad thing when you’re with your girlfriend and you don’t know whose hair tie you’ve got.”
We’re happy to hear that Drew, who was one of the most emotionally open contestants on the show, has found love.
We just hope the new Sam likes owls.
