She opened up about her ‘big secret’ during Wednesday’s episode of The Bachelor while revealing she’s previously dated both men and women.

And now it looks like Brooke Blurton may have another bombshell in her past.

The 23-year-old youth worker is certainly no stranger to the spotlight, having previously competed in a series of bikini and beauty pageants while aged just 18.

Another event Brooke stripped down to compete in was New Face of Summer at the South Street Alehouse in Hilton, WA.  

It is unclear how far Brooke progressed in the competition and if she is currently having more luck on The Bachelor.

The Network Ten star also donned a sparkling red bikini for the Miss ConJEANiality pageant back in August 2013.

This particular event was raising money for the annual Jeans for Genes day – which is a fundraising campaign of the Children’s Medical Research Institute.

Another picture revealed Brooke appearing to work as a waitress in a bar. 

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Network Ten for comment.

Last week viewers across Australia tuned in to finally see Brooke reveal her ‘big secret’ after a week of advertising hyping her huge announcement.

‘This is really uncomfortable for me to tell you but…I’ve had two relationships with women,’ The Perth-based beauty told Nick Cummins at Wednesday’s cocktail party. 

‘So, I’ve had four relationships. I was with a guy for three years. This is really uncomfortable for me to tell you but like… I’ve also had two relationships with women,’ Brooke revealed.

‘But um…I’m a big person of who you are inside. Obviously not face value and what you look like or what you are,’ Brooke explained.

‘So, for me, when I was in those relationships, I looked beyond what they were as female and I really loved for who they were as people,’ she added.

However Brooke confirmed she doesn’t consider herself to be a lesbian or a bisexual.

‘I’m not a bisexual or a lesbian or anything like that, I’m a big lover of people and who they are,’ Brooke said.

She continued: ‘And… I just really don’t wanna be judged on that.’
