Bachelorette runner-up Timm Hanly called Carlin Sterritt after his split with Angie Kent
Timm Hanly was left heartbroken after his stint on The Bachelorette after Angie Kent chose Carlin Sterritt over him.
But it appears there were no hard feelings towards his rival on the show.
The Bachelor in Paradise star, 28, told Mamamia on Wednesday that he’s no longer in contact with his former love interest Angie, 30.

‘I’ve spoken to Carlin, I spoke to him a few weeks ago after they broke up. I just told him, “I hope you’re all good”. But I haven’t spoken to Angie at all,’ Timm told the publication.
He added: ‘People have been messaging me saying, ‘Oh have a go now, it’s your chance!”
The tattooed larrikin told The Kyle and Jackie O Show he’d been flooded with messages from fans telling him to rekindle his relationship with Angie.

He said: ‘I haven’t been able to get away from it actually because my DMs have just been full of people going, “Oh your shot!” and “Have a go.”‘
Radio host Kyle Sandilands chimed in: ‘You don’t really want to go back and have a crack at what you lost. That’s not what men do.’
Timm agreed, saying: ‘I’ve got to have a bit of… credibility, self-respect.’

It comes after he briefly mentioned Angie and Carlin’s break-up in an interview with WHO magazine, published last week.
When asked if he’d heard from either of them since filming the show, Timm replied: ‘I used to speak to them a bit, but I just let them do their thing.’
‘It’s a bit weird,’ he added. ‘You go from being so close to someone [while filming]. I was so close to both of them that it’s weird.’
