The Bachelorette Australia Grand Finale Goes Straight to Number 1 on Free to Air Ratings
Angie Kent has finally found her match as The Bachelorette Australia aired its grand finale last night on Network 10. The former Googleboxer chose to give her final rose to Carlin Sterlitt, after bidding farewell to runner up Timm Hanly.
The last episode of this season has earned the show its highest viewer ratings with 992,000 viewers tuning in across the 5-city metro. That’s more than a hundred thousand jump from the second to the last episode of the season, which garnered 829,000 on free to air overnight ratings. The hit reality show has seen some tough competition since it aired with other reality shows like The Masked Singer and The Block consistently hitting the top spots. Regardless, the show has managed to finish off strong despite not hitting the 1 million mark, which could still spell out another season ahead for The Bachelorette.
