The Guy on New Zealand’s The Bachelor Has Been Friend-Zoned 3 Times and It’s Only Week 5

2 minute read

When you’re on a reality TV show whose sole objective is to find you true love, getting friend-zoned and having a girl walk out on you is the last thing you want happening. But that’s exactly what’s been happening to Auckland businessman Arthur Green on the New Zealand edition of The Bachelor. Three times.

Danielle B, a lawyer, left on Wednesday, Australian news website news.com.au reports, after saying there was “no spark” between her and Arthur.

Her walkout took place a week after Danielle L — who reportedly spent 18 months in jail for stealing from her employer — said it would be “disingenuous” to continue when she clearly didn’t have feelings for him.

Rosie, meanwhile, barely lasted a night on the show. “He is a nice guy, but when he said he did not want to come to the Middle East with me and be my bodyguard, that was the deal-breaker,” she said.

He’s also apparently not a very good kisser.

Add to that a bikini slip, a broken wrist and an on-camera fart, and it’s clear the New Zealand version of The Bachelor is miles ahead of the U.S. one in terms of entertainment value.

Y’all been watching the wrong edition. Learn more about New Zealand’s here.
