Sophie Monk Has A Creepy Name For Her ‘Bachie’ Pick To Keep His ID Secret

We’re girding our loins for what’s surely shaping up to be the spiciest season of ‘The Bachelorette’ yet thanks to one lovable, loudmouthed bogan called Sophie Monk.

Currently running the press gauntlet ahead of the show’s premiere on September 20, the Monkmeister stopped by KIIS 1065 for a chat with her good m8s Kyle & Jackie O who, let’s face it, are the best possible people to pry juicy deets from her manicured hands.

After exchanging standard pleasantries, Kyle wasted no time asking how many guys she hooked up with during filming.

Soph copped to playing tonsil hockey on more than a few occasions because she felt such strong chemistry with “a few guys” straight off the bat.

“I went in going, ‘I’m not going to embarrass my family. I’m not kissing anyone’. First date, second date, I was like ‘Whoops’. You just get lost in it. I kissed a lot… I kissed a lot of guys.”


She also revealed she’s seen her chosen dude twice since filming has wrapped, under a veil of secrecy she’s not totally confident she won’t break.

“You gotta do Facetime and then you get lockdown as well, that they organise for you. But it’s tricky. I just gotta wait to the end of the show. I think I’ve got to go to Mexico to get away because otherwise I know I’ll break the rules and ruin it.”

Soph also admitted the winner has already met her family and that – to conceal his identity from her young nieces and nephews, who are blabbermouths – she calls him ‘Uncle Dave’, which is probably the creepiest possible nickname she could have chosen.

“Once they finally meet him out of this, they’re going to go ‘Oh weird’. It’s not the best name, like ‘Meet your Uncle Dave!’,” she laughed.

“Uncle Dave sounds like some gross uncle that you’re trying to keep away from them at the barbeque,” retorted Kyle.

“It’s just so they don’t tell anyone at school so, if no one knows his name,” Soph said.

Keep your eyes peeled for blokes who look like they could fit that moniker and you might just guess the winner.

The Bachelorette Australia Season Three starts 7.30 20 September on TEN And WIN Network.
