NICE girls don’t always finish last. After the shock departure of The Bachelor mean team, The Saturday Telegraph sat down with fan favourites and the show’s sweethearts to discuss their new-found friendship.

Despite the fact NSW based beauties Brittany Hockley, Cass Wood and Sophie Tieman are vying for the same guy, the ladies formed an unbreakable bond on the show which they say became more important than finding love.

“No man is going to get between us and our new friendship,” Hockley said.

“We formed such a special friendship on day one in The Bachelor house.

“Yes we are all there for the same reason, to find love, but this wasn’t a competition for us.

“In the end this experience was like being on a holiday with my girlfriends and finding a holiday romance at the same time.”

Dating Nick ‘The Honey Badger’ Cummins at once didn’t stop The Bachelor nice girls from helping one another out.

“Brittany ironed my clothes for me when I was running late for a single date,” Tieman said.

“And I would help her do her eyeliner before she had a date with Nick.

“We borrowed one another’s jewellery, clothes and shoes. We supported each other the whole time. It was the only way you could get through this series unscathed.”

Wood, who got off to a shaky start on the show after being branded a stage-five-clinger, said she wouldn’t have lasted this long on the series if it wasn’t for her two new besties.

“We connected on day one because we are all so similar,” Wood said.

“These two girls were my rocks in the house. I couldn’t have gone through this without them.

“Watching the first couple of weeks was hard, seeing how I was portrayed. But I don’t have any regrets because I have made two amazing life long friends.”
