It feels like just yesterday when we turned on our tellies and watchedThe Bachelorfor the first time.

But alas, it's been a while since we first tuned in to see the love story between Tim Robards and Anna Heinrich unfold and a lot of other love stories have since come... and gone.

This made us curious to know where some of the biggestBachelorandBachelorettestars are in 2023.

Watch: First Date with Sam Wood. Post continues after video.

It turns out there's been quite a few marriages, new relationships, fresh breakups and even a few (or rather, A LOT) of Bachie babies.

Here's where some of the biggest Bachie stars are now.

Keira Maguire

Keira Maguire had a successful career following a turbulent ride on Richie Strahan's season ofThe Bachelorin 2016.

Back then, Keira was edited as 'the villain' of the season and was later eliminated from the show ahead of a rose ceremony. The following year, she was onI'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here.

And in 2018, she returned to the Bachie franchise for the first season ofBachelor in Paradise, where she won the heart of Jarrod Woodgate from Sophie Monk's season ofThe Bachelorette.

The pair dated on and off for more than a year before calling it quits. She also appeared on the latest season ofParadisebut ended up walking away from the show before the finale.

This year, Keira was required to appear before the Melbourne Magistrates' Court (via video link) after admitting to an assault involving a glass at a Melbourne bar.

According to reports, the reality TV contestant admitted to one count of recklessly causing injury.

Keira's lawyer, Zarah Garde-Wilson, said the situation unfolded during a “very heated moment” when the reality star happened to have a glass in her hand.

"She’s extremely embarrassed," her lawyer said. "It’s entirely out of character for her."

Glenn Smith

Glenn might not have been the most memorable contestant on Angie Kent's season ofThe Bachelorettein 2019, but he quickly became one to remember when he went on season three ofBachelor in Paradisein 2020.

And that's because it's where he met Alisha Aitken-Radburn, who competed onThe Bachelorin 2018.

The pair left the show as a couple and announced their engagement later in October 2021.

In April, they tied the knot in Western Australia.

These days, Glenn continues on with his career as a refrigeration mechanic while his wife Alisha is a published author ofThe Villain Edit— a memoir about reality TV and taking control of the narrative.

"The Villain Editcharts my journey through the smoke-and-mirrors worlds of politics, reality TV and social media. It reveals how the perceptions of others can rewrite the story of who we think we are and what we believe we are worth," she wrote on Instagram.

"I started writing the very first notes for this book sitting on a plane to Fiji for my third and final season ofThe Bachelorfranchise. Over three years later it’s nearly out in the world. I can’t wait to share more of the process, it’s been both the biggest challenge and biggest joy."

Nick Cummins

Australia was falling in love with Nick 'Honey Badger' Cummins right until the moment he didn't choose a winner on his season ofThe Bachelor.

Nick flew out his final two – Brittany Hockley and Sophie Tieman – over to New Caledonia, dumped them both and fled into the jungle, leaving viewers at home unsatisfied.

"Right now, I can't give 100 per cent to you. My head is very clouded. Right now, I'm a little bit lost," he told Hockley, after delivering a similar speech to Tieman.

However, five years later, Nick's life looks incredibly different. For starters, he is now in a committed relationship.

Oh, and he's a dad, too.

He went 'Instagram official' with his girlfriend Alexandra George in April 2021. Eight months later, they announced they were expecting their first child. In 2022, they welcomed their son, Billy George Cummins.
