Jarrod Woodgate keeps getting told he’s way better looking in real life

MOST people say the camera adds a few kilos but Bachelor in Paradise star Jarrod Woodgate has a whole new complaint — he says TV makes him ‘so ugly’.

BACHELOR IN Paradise star Jarrod Woodgate thinks TV has done him a disservice.

If Australians met him in person, they’d see he’s much hotter in real life — just ask him.

“That’s what I keep getting told,” he said.

“I hate watching myself on TV because I’m so ugly on TV. But then people see me in real life and they go, ‘Wow, you’re actually a tall, good-looking, handsome man. What happened?”

Woodgate, 32, has been quite literally red-faced during TV romances with Bachelorette

Sophie Monk and his Paradise match Keira Maguire, 32, who this week went TV “official” as his girlfriend.

However, he’s convinced the unfortunate hue has been inflicted on him in post-production.

“I don’t know what the editing does but they make me flustered and red. I don’t look like that,” he insisted.

Viewers have been treated to intense displays of affection between Woodgate and Maguire but speaking from his vineyard in Victoria, Woodgate didn’t seem so convinced.

“I’m not sure where I’m at. I did go in there to find someone and hopefully Keira is that one but who knows at this stage,” he said.

“We’ve still got to test all the waters and find out where we’re at. So far she ticks the boxes.”
He denied Maguire, who lives in Sydney, was staying with him in Victoria.

It’s a stark contrast for the man fans dubbed a “stage-five clinger”during his romance with Monk.

“It may not seem like I’m being more cautious but I believe when two parties connect things just happen naturally.

“But I’m trying to make sure at this stage I’m not going to rush into anything. I know a few couples on set have said they love each other but I just want to take my time.

“Keira has a massive personality and I don’t know her. I like the craziness in Keira and I think she’s such a beautiful person.”

Bachelor in Paradise airs 7.30pm Sunday and Monday on TEN.
