Bachelor contestant Helena: ‘I’m still very much single’

Helena Sauzier has revealed she is still on the market after her “shock” dumping from Bachelor Matt Agnew. The Perth beauty was sent home in the semi-final and made it clear who she felt should win the astrophysicist’s heart.

Helena Sauzier says she will never get closure from Bachelor hunk Matt Agnew.

The Perth beauty got booted by the astrophysicist in the semi-final episode despite having their most romantic date yet.

“The date was one of my more romantic dates with him. He was very romantic towards me kissing me and holding my hand,” Sauzier told Confidential ahead of Thursday night’s grand final episode.

“The minute I walked into the rose ceremony I kind of knew I was going. It was a gut feeling but it was still a shock and upsetting. You never really get closure. I’m still very much single.”

Sauzier and Agnew’s relationship was among the rockiest from the season, with the health coach threatening to walk out several times.

“He did say he’s happy to put all that behind us but maybe at the end of the day he decided I wasn’t as open (with my feelings),” she said.

“I see Abbie saying she’s in love with him, I see Chelsie saying she’s falling in love with him. Whereas I’m a slow burner. But I had very strong feelings for him.”

The 25-year-old however doesn’t regret her time on the show although said she was portrayed to appear more guarded than she was.

“I regret nothing. I was a lot more open than I was shown to be,” she said.

“We had quite a lengthy conversation and the way we closed things off there is a lot of love and respect.”

As for her bets on the winner, she wants close friend Chelsie to win but it is anyone’s game.

“I would like Chelsie to win but it’s very hard to determine. He’s infatuated with Abbie but maybe that infatuation won’t last a lifetime.”
