"Do you feel more confident?" host Sophie Monk asked.

"Yes, one hundred per cent, how could you not when you look like this?" he joked. "It feels amazing, I mean, how many people are lucky enough to get this experience. I just feel humbled and honoured."

Fans took to Twitter to share their reactions with one user joking, "Kiran looks so good, I am malfunctioning!"

"OMG Kiran looks so handsome, such a beautiful energy about him too," another said.

"Kiran looking like he's going from [Beauty and the Geek] to [The Bachelor]," someone else joked.

And while things didn't work out between Kiran and his 'beauty' on the show Bryanna Reynolds, he is now dating another 'beauty', model Louise Child!

"What an incredible journey it has been!" he wrote on Instagram at the time. "Never could I have dreamed of being so lucky. And never would I have expected to have gained enough confidence to feel proud of how far I've come.

"For the first time in nearly 8 years I'm anti-depressant free, happy, fit and healthy! I owe every bit of growth to the amazing people I've met and the immense friendships I've made over the past few months."

He added that he was "making strides" toward his dream of being "a stunt man/action hero, "I'd be an absolute fool not to take advantage of the privilege I've been given, and I'm making a promise to anyone reading this that I will never take it for granted and will always unashamedly be myself. Thank you so much to all the amazing people in my life; past, present and future."

Fans were quick to share their support for the geek, with one user writing, "You're like a geeky version of [Tim Robards], looking good!"
