Remember how two weeks ago Honey Badger stunned the entire country by choosing no winner in the Bachelor finale? Of course not, we can’t let you forget!
You better believe that’s not how Pot Plant Jarrod, full name: Jarrod Woodgate, woulda played it. No sir. The Daily Mail were listening to Kyle & Jackie O this morning, and they invited Woodgate – a man who certainly knows what it feels like to be rejected in front of the nation, as the runner-up on Sophie Monk‘s season of The Bachelorette – on the show to weigh in on the very important issue of Cummins’ final decision.
Essentially Jackie O said she couldn’t imagine Woodgate making the call to dump both Brittany Hockley and Sophie Tieman in the finale.
Woodgate, for his part, was a bit more diplomatic, not seeking to join in the media pile-on.
Of course Kyle Sandilands thinks you Badge should have at least tried to date one of the women in the outside world, bullying Woodgate into acknowledging, “You have to give it a red-hot crack, which makes Honey Badger and myself different.“
Different how, Jarrod? Well, he says he fights for love.
“I’ll definitely give it a go because that’s what love is about: you’ve got to fight for it. If there’s no return and you had a crack at it, then fair enough.”
He was yet again pressed to comment on his split with his Bachelor in Paradise bae, Keira Maguire. His answer? Non-specific. “I just saw things happening, and saw the way I was becoming as a person and I wasn’t comfortable with it.”
Sandilands also forced Woodgate to say that he would totally date Sophie Monk again if she came and pleaded for him to date her – which would literally never happen.
One last thing – when asked, Woodgate was coy about whether or not he’d be returning to reality television, saying he had other things to focus on, like his work with children’s charity, Camp Quality, and his parents’ vineyard. We’ll all take that as a ‘Someday’.
