The last girls standing for the heart of The Bachelor Locky Gilbert are besties turned enemies Irena Srbinovska and Bella Varelis.
Most viewers predicted this finale from the start, but the pair’s soured relationship makes for a juicy ending on Thursday night with Irena admitting she’ll be heartbroken if Bella wins the final rose.
“I have fallen head over heels crazy for Locky, I see him as my future partner, my husband, the father of my children,’’ Irena said.
“Every relationship that I’ve had, the guy that I’m dating ends up marrying the next girl they date, straight after me.
“If it was to happen again, and Locky was to marry Bella, I would be completely heartbroken.
“I’m hoping that history doesn’t repeat itself. I’m scared to think I might have my heart broken.”
The last eliminated were Izzy Sharman-Firth and intruder Bec Cvilikas, who is now close friends with Varelis.
“I loved coming in at the point I did as I got to skip all the drama,’’ Bec said.
In the show’s previews, it was revealed that Gilbert broke down after saying he’d fallen in love with two women.
Long-time frontrunner Varelis said she loved Gilbert so much it hurt.
“Honestly, can’t believe that I’ve made final two. It hasn’t felt as real as this moment,’’ she said.
“Locky makes me feel like I’m the only girl in the world. I’m so immensely in love with him. “He reduces me to a schoolgirl, I see him, and get butterflies and I feel like I’m 16 again. It’s exciting.
“I did not think coming into this that I would find someone who was perfect for me. I love him so much it hurts.”
