Both The Bachelor contestants and social media set alight last night after new Bachie Jimmy Nicholson’s steamy kiss with frontrunner, Lily Price.

Things got hot and heavy between the two as they posed for a series of photos under a stream of falling water.

Getting lost in the moment, Lily planted a passionate kiss on Jimmy, with the rest of the girls looking on in horror.

“You’re really teasing me now,” Lily said as the pair leaned into each other.

“The audacity of her to do that in front of all of us,” another contestant is heard saying.

However, Twitter was on Lily’s side, with one person writing: “Not a fan of the kissing on group dates but drives me nuts how they always hate on the girl who did it. Jimmy kissed Lily too???”

“Ummmm why is it Lily's fault? Bachy was also involved!,” another said.

“What on earth was Lily thinking” ummm Lily isn’t the one dating 20 other people, and you would have done the same sooooo,” a Bachie viewer wrote.

Last night’s episode ended with two eliminations, Belinda and Jacinta, who failed to make an impact on Jimmy.

It comes after The Bachelor launched to the smallest audience in history on Wednesday night, with the Farmer Wants A Wife finale coming out on top.
