1. The canny theory that explains why Angie Kent chose Carlin first on The Bachelorette last night.

Well.

Last night’s episode of The Bachelorette was prettydramaticto say the least. We saw tears, a very nervous Timm and a brief walkout from Angie. It was…a lot.

In the end, Carlin (and his face) and sweet angel Timm got a rose, sending dog-lover Ryan home.

After the episode aired, a switched-on Bachie fan proposed a theory on Mamamia’sBach Lols Facebook group as to why the rose ceremony was so intense – and why Angie was so torn up last night, despite it being the semi-finale.

And it’s pretty damn convincing.

The theory suggests that Angie chose Carlin first during last night’s rose ceremony because he will be the easiest for her to say ‘no’ to during tonight’s finale.

Meaning, Angie was secretly trying to choose between her ∼real∼ top two picks – Timm and Ryan.

Interesting.

Look, it makes a lot of sense. Why not get the tough decision out of the way and take a bit of pressure off the finale? ¯\_(⍨)_/¯

Thankfully, we don’t have long to wait to see who Angie chooses.The Bachelorettefinale airs at 7:30 pm on Channel Ten.

2. Oh. My. God. Sources are sayingFriends’Matthew Perry has ‘never fully been able to get over’ co-star Courteney Cox.

So the chemistry we saw between Chandler and Monica onFriendswasn’t just acting…

A source has revealed to US Weekly that 50-year-old actor, Matthew Perry, has always had a bit of a crush on his on-screen wife, Courteney Cox.

“Matthew’s always been in love with her,” they said.

“[He’s] never fully been able to get over her.”

This comes after the pair caught up for coffee last week, with Cox sharing a photo of them alongside the caption, “…could I BE any happier? #realfriends.”

Don’t get your hopes up too much though, Courteney is currently dating rockstar Johnny McDaid.

3. Oh. Ryan Anderson says he actually auditioned forThe Bachelor, not Ali’s season ofThe Bachelorette.

As this year’s season of The Bachelorette comes to an end, all of the Bachie secrets are coming out of the woodworks.

This includes some new information about exBachelorettecontestant, Ryan Anderson, who – despite proclaiming to Angie, “I’m here for you and you only, I wouldn’t have signed up had it been anyone else” – did indeed apply forThe Bachelor,and NOT as a contestant onThe Bachelorette,like he once stated.

On an episode earlier in the season, various contestants were asked whether they had ever applied for another season of the show. Ryan admitted to applying for Ali Oetjen’s season ofThe Bachelorette.

However, in a post-Bacheloretteinterview with KIIS FM’s Kyle and Jackie O, he reveals it was actually the main role onThe Bachelor,he was auditioning for.

“At the stage in my life when that all went down I’d been asked to apply for a multitude of dating shows, and I knocked back a tonne of them,” he said.

“I was just at the stage where I wanted to just do something so I got flown over to Melbourne, did an audition. I wasn’t actually sure what it was for at that stage. I was under the impression it was for Ali’s season. That wasn’t the case.

“It was actually forThe Bachelor.”

He finishes by mentioning he wouldn’t have made a great bachelor and he’s glad nothing eventuated.

Sure… ¯\_(⍨)_/¯
