It’s been a whirlwind finding love on The Bachelor but Chelsie McLeod says she is going to try to keep life as normal as possible from now on.

While many of her former co-stars are pursuing careers as influencers, the chemical engineer — who won Matt Agnew’s heart during the finale last month — has no interest in sponsored posts despite her new-found fame.

“My life hasn’t changed at all really,” McLeod said.

“I still go to work Monday to Friday, I still do what I love,” she said.

“I’ve decided to keep my life quite normal and not do the whole influencer thing.”

McLeod, 28, has been on cloud nine since finding love with Agnew on the Channel 10 dating show.

She was chosen over runner-up Abbie Chatfield during the emotional finale.

The couple have no immediate plans to move in together, but are said to be making plans to travel in Europe next year.
