Australians are known for being a warm, friendly breed of people. Until it’s Bachelorette finale night and then some of us turn into cold, dead, unfeeling arseholes.
As you all probably know by now (and if you’re in another state and the ep hasn’t aired yet then WHY THE HELL ARE YOU ON THE BLOODY INTERNET?!), Stu Laundy was crowned the winner of The Bachelorette and therefore, Sophie Monk‘s heart.
Which meant Jarrod Woodgate, the man who declared his love for Soph in, oooh, about episode two, was sent packing.
And he did not take it well. Because this is the Bachelorette, there were man-tears.
You’ve got us all tearing up, Soph. 😭💔 #BacheloretteAU pic.twitter.com/1lHp9MeJ9x

And plenty of fans showed that they were care factor zero about it.

I missed the best part of #BacheloretteAU final – how red Jarrod’s face went when he was dumped, can someone tell me which shade? pic.twitter.com/nhYjMDk4cP

Me watching Jarrod’s heart tear in two but then remembering that Stu has $500 million and bitch I would have chose him too. #BacheloretteAU pic.twitter.com/7ombwy5oK3

I’m guessing no-ones campaigning for Jarrod to be the next Bachelor. 😑#BacheloretteAU

Did anyone else see Jarrod in the bushes at the end? #BacheloretteAU

Jarrod’s #BacheloretteAU walk of shame needs to become a meme right now. #slumpedshoulders #sandshuffle

But, that’s not to say every person watching sharpened their claws when the winner was announced. No, some very kind folks started a “Put Your Pot Plants Out” movement on behalf of the runner-up, a nod to his famous pissy plant tantrum during the show.
Like, people were actually taking their houseplants outside in a show of “support”.
