Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins hasn’t even chosen his lucky lady yet and people are already speculating which Australian suitor will helm The Bachelor in 2019.

While it’s unclear if a bloke from Ali Oetjen‘s upcoming season of The Bachelorette will be selected or if it’ll be a totally left-field Aussie personality in the vein of Cummins, celebrity vet Dr. Chris Brown has been probed about whether or not he’d be up for the role.
The 40-year-old Bondi Vet star appeared on last night’s episode of Have You Been Paying Attention? where funnyman Ed Kavalee pointed out that the buff blonde is “40, still single [and] with no children.”
“Would you do The Bachelor?” comedian Celia Pacquola asked Brown, resulting in much applause from the live-studio audience.
“Let’s not start that!” Chris replied, shutting down the rumour.
Following the odd exchange, Bachie fans took to social media to petition for the star to be cast as the Honey Badger’s successor.
