Remember me? The Bachelor’s Louise Pillidge looks very different after seven months in hiding… as she moves on from THAT Blake Garvey scandal
She has been keeping a low profile since her public break-up with Blake Garvey more than four years ago.
And on Sunday, former Bachelor star Louise Pillidge resurfaced on Instagram for the first time in seven months.
The real estate agent, 31, shared a photo of herself looking very different to how she had appeared on the Channel 10 dating show in 2014.

Louise was ready for a workout in a black crop top and pulled her newly-brunette hair back into a tight ponytail.
‘Happy Sunday. Have an amazing day,’ she captioned the selfie.
She rarely posts on Instagram these days, and her last photo was uploaded in October 2019.

She posed in a floral chiffon dress and white pointy-toe stilettos at her brother’s wedding in Ireland.
‘Such a perfect day! Congratulations to my brother Simon and his beautiful wife Clare,’ she captioned the post.
Before her brother’s wedding, her last post had been in July. The one before that had been five months earlier, on her birthday.

Louise was a contestant on season two of The Bachelor, starring Perth-based auctioneer Blake Garvey.
She placed third in the competition, but resumed her relationship with Blake after he had controversially dumped the show’s winner, Sam Frost.
The pair went on to date for 18 months before breaking up in April 2016. Blake has also since retreated from the spotlight.
The term ‘pulling a Blake Garvey’ soon entered the public lexicon, referring to when a Bachelor dumps his winner and hooks up with a runner-up.
