"Nick's not your typical Bachelor - he has a curly mullet, a slug on his top lip and a very distinct ocker accent," the source said. "But that's the beauty of him!"

"They told the girls not to make any rash decisions - to give him a go, and decide after getting to know him properly."

NW also reported that producers on the show even told contestants they'd be considered for Bachelor In Paradise 2019 if they stuck around.

Fuark! Talk about an ego bruise for the Badge. Here's hoping his colourful quotes can save the day...
