Aww, bless their hearts. Sophie Monk has found love with The Bachelorette punter Stu Laundy, and despite the fact we’ve never met either of them we’re SO BLOODY HAPPY.
Like, there’s not a dry eye in Australia right now.
During the picturesque finale getaway in Fiji, both Stu and fellow final two contestant Jarrod Woodgate met Soph’s family, and Jarrod proceeded to again say all the right romantic things to Sophie while simultaneously not blinking.
But it was Stu FINALLY letting down his emotional walls and declaring his love for Sophie, 37, that got him over the line at the end of the ep.
When the 44-year-old father of two fiiiinally said those three little words though, it was like a beautiful case of verbal diarrhoea.
Stu, we are pretty sure she really, really loves you too!😍❤ #BacheloretteAU pic.twitter.com/b8Cmi0mCh1

He was just saying all the things.

He then started whispering sweet nothings right into her eardrum.
I need subtitles, what is he panting about? #bacheloretteau

People were v. uncomf.
I can’t directly look at the screen, I need to be doing other things (tweet/read tweets) it’s just too cringe #BacheloretteAU

Stu: “I’m scared of embarrassing my kids”
Too late, mate. #BacheloretteAU

But others could see the beauty in the moment.
It’s so heartwarming to know that white male millionaires in their late 40s can still sometimes find love. #BacheloretteAU

Finally breaking through and getting Stu to admit he loves the shit out of her was defs the clincher for Sophie, and she deserves to have people declaring their feelings for her.

She even returned serve, which was adorable.
But some of the viewers felt like she made the wrong choice with her final two entirely. This person’s idea for a new reality series could just work…

We smell a spin-off.
