The Bachelor (Australian TV series) season 2

The second season of The Bachelor Australia premiered on Network Ten on July 30, 2014. The season featured Blake Garvey, a 31-year-old real estate agent from Perth, Western Australia, choosing from 24 bachelorettes.

The season followed the typical format of The Bachelor franchise, with weekly dates, rose ceremonies, and eliminations leading to a final selection. Significant locations featured throughout the season included Sydney, New South Wales, and international locations.

Notable contestants included eventual winner Sam Frost, Lisa Hyde, and Laurina Fleure. The season finale saw Blake Garvey initially choosing Sam Frost. However, the engagement was short-lived, as Garvey ended the relationship soon after the finale was filmed and subsequently began a relationship with Louise Pillidge, who had finished third in the competition. This controversial event generated significant media attention and public reaction.
