Is Grant Crapp turning into Michael Turnbull?

One is the Love Island bad-boy who was busted for having a ‘secret girlfriend’, while the other is the unlucky-in-love Bachelor reject known for his eyebrow-raising antics.

And Grant Crapp, 22, and Michael Turnbull, 37, appear to have more in common than previously thought, with Grant donning a flashy wrist-watch reminiscent of Michael’s infamous Rolex and his array of sleeve tattoos on Tuesday as he left a media interview.

Grant was seen proudly wearing the gold accessory as he sauntered towards the KIIS FM radio studios ahead of his interview with the Kyle And Jackie O Show.

 

That’s familiar! Grant Crapp, 22, and Michael Turnbull, 37, appear to have more in common than previously thought, with Grant donning a flashy wrist-watch reminiscent of Michael’s infamous Rolex on Tuesday

While Grant’s watch doesn’t appear to be a Rolex, the star did seem to have been inspired by style-hound Michael when it came to dressing for the occasion.

The electrician looked hip and happening in a pink denim jacket, black T-shirt and skinny jeans rolled up to expose his bare ankles.

With a coffee cup in hand, Grant added flare to his swish ensemble with a pair of sassy keyhole sunglasses, a diamond pinkie ring and some lace-up shoes in tan-hued leather.

Later, Grant was spotted looking pensive as he waited outside the radio studio scrolling through his phone. 

Three years ago The Bachelorette’s Michael Turnbull was forced to respond to claims that his beloved Rolex watch was a fake.

At the time, a Sydney-based established watchmaker told Daily Mail Australia that Michael’s gilded timepiece was actually an imitation, saying: ‘It’s a fake and it’s an ugly fake.’

‘Rolex don’t make ugly, and that’s ugly,’ he said.   

Despite this, Michael proudly flashed the watch during his appearance on Bachelor In Paradise this year, wearing it during rose ceremonies and cocktail parties.

Michael is currently living it up in Los Angeles, reportedly working on an upcoming reality TV show, Netflix’s Game Of Love.

Meanwhile, Grant is rumoured to be lusting for another bite of the fame cherry after his agent Max Markson hinted he will star on MTV’s Ex On The Beach in the UK.
