Sam Frost and The Bachelorette winner Sasha Mielczarek opened up about starring in the most-talked about reality show of the season, The Bachelorette.
Their relationship - which they kept under wraps for months - was leaked just hours before the show finale after photos of the couple canoodling in a hotel room came out online through a British tabloid.
In a live chat with News corp, Sam opened up about how she reacted when she was told of the news.
'I was devastated, like you wouldn't believe. I burst into tears, and cried for hours actually. The Team at Shine & Network Ten and myself have worked SOOOO hard for the whole year, and for it to be spoiled 2 hours before the show, was just heartbreaking for everyone.'

Despite their relationship being made public earlier than planned, the two haven't let it cloud their happiness with their new relationship.
'It's crazy to think I might not have met him if I hadn't done the show. I pinch myself everyday!! So lucky,' gushed Sam.
'Sash is waaay better in real life, he is so funny & relaxed. We are just always laughing and taking the mickey out of each other.'

Sasha also was quick to dish out compliments to the 26-year-old, saying: 'Sam is better in real life! She's amazing.'
When asked who they thought should go on to star in The Bachelor, both suggested third runner-up Richie.
'I'd have to say Richie because I have no doubt Michael will find love away from the show... both great guys!,' said the construction worker.
