The Bachelor Episode 14 Recap: A Brutal Heartbreak

UNLUCKY Bachelor hopeful Cassandra Wood says she’s still in love with Nick “Honey Badger” Cummins after being eliminated from the reality dating show.

Describing the former footballer as “the one that got away”, the 24-year-old university student is doing her best to move on one day at a time.

“I’ve had my heart broken,” Wood, who was labelled a “stage five clinger” during the series, told The Daily Telegraph.

“I finally felt like I’d found someone that I would be with in the future. It was all working out and he turned around in the rose ceremony and didn’t give me a rose. It really sucks.”

Wood has been one of the pivotal characters in the Channel 10 series.

It was revealed in the first episode that she and Cummins knew each other, although she kept details to herself — which upset fellow contestants when they learnt the pair had been on a number of dates prior to the show.

In Thursday night’s episode, fellow contestant Brittany Hockley questioned Wood whether she and Cummins had slept together, something she refused to answer.

“I didn’t go into details about going on dates or kissing and stuff,” she said.

“Everyone knew there was history. Britt confronted me and I guess my reasons for not going into details was I didn’t want to hurt Britt or make the other girls feel uncomfortable. I wouldn’t go around in the real world telling people if I’ve slept with someone, I don’t think Nick would either.”

As for the future, the part-time actor — who has been an extra on Home And Away for a number of years — isn’t ready to date anyone else.

“He will always be the one that got away,” she said.

“My goal for going on the show was to find someone I would spend the rest of my life with. I guess him not giving me a rose, now I know where I stand. He can't see himself with me in the future and I have to respect his decision.”
