The Bachelorette Australia - Richie Strahan *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Dirty Street Pie wrote:@AllAboutLove , I've been trying to post and PM photos of the article but stupid iPad keeps crashing I will give it another go on the laptop tomorrow. The next Bachelor part is just a little subheading at the bottom of the page, but it is directly under Richie's story about wanting to be a good dad. The whole article is a double page spread about the last 3 guys where Sash gets a full page, and Michael and Richie share a page, with the next Bachelor bit at the bottom.

You know who is not goooooorrrrrrrrrrnnnnnnn, though? Beautiful perfect Richie, the wondrous unicorn man, whom Sam meets in Perth.

If Sam doesn’t want him, can someone set him up with a) ideally me, or b) alternatively, my beloved Heather?

Shyly, Richie confesses that he is “letting down his walls” for Sam, while Sam surreptitiously scans the nearby area for signs of her previous Perth-dwelling beau, that dirty street pie Bachie Blake. As I have written a lot of times before, this idea of emotional walls is one regularly ascribed to women, so I was kind of surprised to see Richie use it. Though not in a bad way. Bless his sensitive little heart.

“I’ve got a little bit of a Richie-crush,” Sam confesses. Don’t we all, sister. Don’t we all.

Richie’s response to this is “cool sticks.”

OH GOD I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.

I mean, how could you not?

Anyway, Richie takes Sam to meet his mum, sister, and his mates, who have names like “Buff” and “Chich” and all think the sun shines out of his arse. “Richie is the best guy and he is the best and you should think that he is the best because I think he is the best and I love him,” one of his mates gushes. “So do you?”

“Um… he’s pretty good,” Sam responds.

You bet he is. LOOK AT HIS FACE, SAM.

I mean, look into his beautiful unicorn soul as well, but LOOK AT HIS PERFECT FACE AND TELL ME YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE MAKING OUT WITH THAT EVERY DAY.

After Sam deftly handles a few questions about her maybe moving to Perth to be with Richie (she’s down with it, even if dirty street pie Blake also lives there), Richie’s mum and sister are won over. “I thought she’d be a princess, but she’s a really nice girl,” his mum says.

She is a princess, tho, Richie’s mum. She’s a magical unicorn princess, making her a match for your magical unicorn son.

In conclusion: RICHIE OR GTFO.

Once it was pointed out to me that Richie looks a bit like Westley I couldn’t unsee it
and OH GOD YOU COULD HAVE THIS, SAM

Next week: there seems to be some skydiving and feather epaulets! (Independent of each other!)

And I KNOW Sasha has this in the bag, so stay tuned for the sound of my breaking heart when she breaks my Richie.

This will be me, one week from now, GUARANTEED.

Woman's Day...

Perth boy Richie seems to be in last position in the fans’ books, gathering the least amount of votes in polls and forums.

But that doesn’t mean there aren’t people in his corner!

The rope access technician has his fair share of ladies rooting for him to take out the final prize – or become the Bachelor himself next season.

“Richie for next Bachelor, that is all!” one comment read.

“I just want Richie as the next Bachelor!” said another.
