It was all about the hometown visits on Wednesday’s episode of The Bachelor Australia.
And despite Locky Gilbert meeting the family, it seems that fans just couldn’t get enough of the stunning homes shown during the visits.
Some viewers flocked to Twitter saying that they were convinced the contestants were staying in lavish Airbnbs for the show.
