‘The Bachelors Australia’: Aylin Is Looking For the Male Version of Herself

January 3, 2023

Well, folks, The Bachelors‘ summer of love is finally here, and this season, things are going to be different.

Past seasons of The Bachelor Australia have featured helicopter dates over Sydney’s picturesque harbours, where our Bachelor would woo his date for the day. Then, they’d head back to the candle-lit mansion dripping in fairy lights for an elaborate Rose Ceremony, where each week, he’d whittle down the women vying for his affection one by one.

This season, all of that is changing.

First, and perhaps most importantly, there are three Bachelors — Jed McIntosh, Felix Von Hofe, and Thomas Malucelli — looking for love this year, and if the promos are anything to go by, at least one of them will pop the question by the end of the series.

Secondly, the show has relocated to Queensland’s sunny Gold Coast. The girls are residing in a waterfront mansion, but there’s not a twinkle light or candle in sight, promising a sleeker, more modern version of The Bachelors than we’ve seen in past seasons.

Finally, the promos show a more dynamic, less linear path to love, for both our Bachelors and the girls in the mansion. As we’ve seen, there are girls who reject our Bachies, and some who may be keen to switch Bachelors along the way.

All in all, it’s set to be an exciting season, and with the first promos introducing the women vying for our Bachelors’ hearts dropping, it’s time to get to know them.

One of the women vying for Thomas’ heart on The Bachelors Australia this year is 25-year-old Aylin, from Queensland.

Up to now, Aylin has found herself unlucky in love. She’s sick of dating app disappointments, and she’s ready to just find that special someone — someone she clicks with, someone she can finally fall in love with.

“I applied for the show because I have been very unlucky in love, I always wanted to meet
the perfect guy for me however I never stumbled across the right person,” she said in press statement.

After dating “so many guys who have never been ready to settle down” or even valued commitment in general.

“I’ve never felt that spark before and had the opportunity to explore that and when I did fancy someone it was never reciprocated,” she continued. “So, after my past experience, I am more than ready to find love and hopefully meet the one and I think this show was a great opportunity for that.”

Aylin prides herself on being honest and kind, so perhaps it’s no real surprise that words of affirmation are her love language. While we’re on the topic of language, Aylin is hoping to make a lasting impression on Thomas by giving him a compliment in Turkish!

As for what her perfect match would be like, Aylin is essentially looking for the male version of herself.

“I want a guy version of me when it comes to personality,” she said. “Someone kind, genuine, confident, energetic, funny, and has a goofy and carefree side.”

He’d also need to be “someone very positive”, because Aylin values her “uplifting an positive attitude” toward life, and she’s looking for someone who can match that energy.

On the other hand, Aylin said that she’s “not fussy on looks”.

“I just care for a great smile, fit and someone tall as I am tall myself,” she clarified.

Will Thomas’ smile be able to turn Aylin’s luck around? Only time will tell! Until then…

The Bachelors Australia premieres on January 9, only on 10 and 10 Play on Demand.
