Bachelor’s Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska with Bel Colwell

Locklan ‘Locky’ Gilbert chose Irena Srbinovska as his leading lady on Thursday’s finale episode of The Bachelor, after professing to have fallen in love with her.

And just a day later, it appeared three was not a crowd, when the lovebirds caught up for drinks with eliminated contestant Bel Colwell in Sydney’s Paddington. 

Irena, 31, walked hand-in-hand with Bel, 25, as Locky, 31, smiled behind them.

The former Australian Survivor star cut a suave figure in a crisp white dress shirt, navy slim-fit pants, a grey suit jacket and pristine white sneakers.

Ever the gentleman, he ensured Irena was kept warm, with the beauty seen sporting his grey suit jacket. 

On Thursday, a conflicted Locky chose Irena as his winning contestant during The Bachelor’s emotional finale.

‘Irena, every time I’m with you… I feel so safe and protected, and it’s kind of weird, ’cause I’m a pretty big dude, and not many people can make me feel like that, but just when I’m with you, I feel so calm and comfortable,’ he told her.

‘When I think about our future together, I’m so excited and I can’t wait to just travel the world and make all your dreams come true.

‘Irena, I’m so in love with you. And I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.’
