The Bachelor's Honey Badger shares unexpected baby announcement

Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins dropped a major bombshell on Sunday, announcing that he’s expecting a baby with his socialite girlfriend Alexandra George.

The Bachelor star shared the exciting news on Instagram, alongside a sweet snap of the loved-up pair.

“My darling and I look forward lovingly to the arrival of our little badger cub,” the former Rugby Union player wrote.

It wasn’t long before fans and celebrity pals flooded his post with well wishes and congratulations.

Fellow SAS contestant and Australian swimmer Shayna Jack gushed over the news, “Congratulations! So happy for you both.”

“Amazing news guys! Biggest congrats and sending lots of love,” added former Home and Away star Lincoln Lewis.

Nick Cummins' girlfriend Alexandra George chimed in, “Can’t wait to meet our little hybrid!”

Nick Cummins had a controversial season of The Bachelor in 2018, in which he ended the show by picking neither Brittany Hockley or Sophie Tieman.

In early 2021, Nick Cummins confirmed his new romance with socialite Alexandra George by posting a photo of them together on Instagram.

It’s believed that their romance began in mid-2020, with the couple reportedly spending lockdown together in Seal Rocks, on the mid-north coast of NSW.
