A contestant on the current US season of The Bachelorette has been billed to viewers as a “social media participant”, thrilling fans numbed by the endless stream of fitness coaches and ‘entrepreneurs’ funnelled through the show.
Kamil, 30, is one of 28 men vying for the heart of Becca Kufrin, the former The Bachelor winner unceremoniously dumped by Arie Luyendyk earlier this year.
He’s actually a fitness model, works in real estate, and is crushingly handsome, but producers don’t seem to care. In a Facebook Live broadcast, Chris Harrison, AKA America’s Osher, gave Kamil’s modelling career equal billing to his status as a “social media guy”.
Kamil’s official profile on The Bachelorette website is no less diminutive:
The revelation that Kamil, a genuinely strong contender, has been reduced to his status as a “social media participant” has fans of the show absolutely frothing.

One of the Bachelorette contestants is from the same town where I went to high school and his job is “Social Media Participant” so I’m really happy to hear I’m not the worst person to come out of that hellhole.

First impressions aren’t *everything* but Bachelorette Becca should definitely choose this dude Kamil whose job title is “Social Media Participant.”

As Kamil has been introduced as a social media participant, we feel the need to share the fruits of his participation – to do less would be a disservice to his designation. Here is are a select few Instagram shots to give you an idea of his input:
