Bachelor star rushed to hospital after her drink was spiked at a Melbourne club – as she shares the chilling moment she knew something was wrong
Bachelor star Florence Moerenhout has revealed she was rushed to hospital after her drink got spiked on a night out.
The TV star and model, 32, took to Instagram on Sunday to reveal details of the chilling incident as a warning to other young women.
Florence believes she was slipped Rohypnol or GHB, which are both considered ‘date rape’ drugs.
‘Last night I went out for a couple drinks and I only had three drinks with some friends and at about 10.30pm, I felt super unwell,’ she said.
The star said she figured she ‘must be drunk’ and needed to go home from the venue, but it made little difference.
‘I got home and I got sicker and sicker, I kept falling and tripping over, I couldn’t stand or sit, I was spinning,’ she said.
The star said she ‘tried everything’ to feel better including a ‘hot bath and cold shower’ but ‘nothing worked’ so she ended up going to emergency.

‘I spent the entire night in the hospital,’ she said, before adding her friend also felt ‘abnormally drunk’ after taking a sip from her own drink.
Florence went on to say that drink spiking is an ‘issue in Melbourne at the moment’, telling her followers to be careful.
Florence said she’s more convinced it was Rohypnol in her drink, as she experienced most of the drug’s symptoms.
These include slurred speech, feeling ‘very drunk’, dizziness, confusion, blackouts and memory loss, according to Healthline.
‘[To whoever did this to us] I hope God will push your hairline back so far that no woman ever, ever wants to look at you again,’ she finished.
