In news that should surprise precisely nobody, turns out the fellas of this nation are pretty keen to dip their toe in the water and put a rose between their teeth for Sophie Monk. Producers of The Bachelorette say they’ve been “inundated” with applications and inquiries since Monk was announced as the new star.
A source told The Daily Telegraph that producers are throwing a very wide net to find a beau for Soph, which is strongly implied by the application – which has brought the age limit up to 45.
Here’s the scoop, via news.com.au:
They are looking at appealing to perhaps men who are more established, know what they are looking for, as well as single dads. But Sophie is absolutely open to a younger man as well, and the lower end of the range is 25. We absolutely want younger guys to be encouraged to apply, [guys] who know what they want and are confident in themselves. Age and type is not a limitation when it comes to finding love.
For the record, Monk’s age range is 23 – 45. Sorry to the 19-year-old thirsthounds out there. You’re not even getting a bloody look in.

For the record, the age limits for previous Bachelorettes Georgia Love, 27, and Sam Frost, 26, was 23 – 35. It’s a wide net, and therefore a much deeper pool of toey blokes to throw themselves at an online application form like ravenous hounds.
