Bachelorette Sophie Monk and Luke share awkward kiss

He’s the George Clooney look-a-like who quickly caught the eye of Bachelorette Sophie Monk.

So it was no surprise Luke McLeod was chosen for a romantic one-on-one date during Wednesday night’s episode of the reality show.

Whilst at first it was fun and games, the date took a serious turn when Luke quizzed Sophie about their chemistry, pointedly asking: ‘Do you feel something here?’

The 33-year-old added that his question was ‘pretty full-on’ given that the pair had only chatted a few times prior.

However, Sophie replied that she did indeed feel sparks with the hunky ‘business culture consultant’.

‘I did [have feelings] from the beginning,’ Sophie revealed.

She added: ‘I just felt like you weren’t coming up [to speak] but it wasn’t obnoxious, it wasn’t like you were trying to be so cool.’

Luke replied he was hesitant to chat to Sophie because he was ‘so s**t nervous’.

The blonde beauty then gushed over her date, before presenting him with a rose.

After accepting the rose, the pair sat awkwardly as Luke hesitated to kiss her.

‘I cannot flirt!’ Sophie was heard saying in a voice-over, adding that she wanted Luke to ‘just kiss me already’.

After sitting quietly, Sophie and Luke then engaged in a very awkward lip lock. However, undeterred, the couple tried again, resulting in a far more passionate smooch.

‘I’m getting lost in the moment and I’m thinking, ‘Sophie, what are you doing?’ I swore to myself that I wouldn’t kiss every guy that I’m going on a date with. Next minute, whoopsies. Sorry, Dad,’ Sophie joked in another voice-over.

On her last single date, the blonde bombshell indulged in a steamy kiss with vineyard manager Jarrod Woodgate.
