Bachelorette runner-up Jarrod Woodgate’s left disgruntled

He was reduced to a blubbering mess when Bachelorette Sophie Monk chose millionaire publican Stu Laundy over him in the finale.

And despite Jarrod Woodgate putting on a brave face since his brutal dumping aired on national TV, his tough exterior broke on Friday when asked about the experience.

The vineyard manager, dubbed by fans as a ‘stage five clinger’, told a photographer at Sydney Airport: ‘Yeah, not happy with the outcome!’

‘Yeah, apparently there are pot plants out for Jarrod on the streets. So I’m going to go looking tonight when I get back to Melbourne. I appreciate all the support out there from the guys and the fans,’ Jarrod said.

Along with most of Australia, Sophie also felt sick about the gut-wrenching break-up. 

Sophie found it difficult watching the heartbroken Victorian head home, saying: ‘Oh, I’m an a**hole. Oh, God. I’m sorry.’

Sophie had told Jarrod: ‘In my head, you’re everything I’ve been looking for. Absolutely everything, but my heart belongs to someone else.’

Jarrod couldn’t contain his disappointment as his lively expression dropped and he wiped tears from his eyes. 

 The Victorian local was shocked by her admission, clearly going into the finale confident of walking away a ‘winner’: ‘Wow. I didn’t know what to think, coming into today, but I didn’t expect that.’ 

A deflated Jarrod hung his head as he dramatically walked away from the beautiful blonde.  

Sophie later confessed her love for winner Stu Laundy. 

Jarrod has since explained in numerous media interviews that he had planned to propose to Sophie and still has feelings for the blonde.
