The last episode of The Bachelor airs on Thursday night but it seems that Laura Byrne could not wait for the final rose ceremony before revealing who the winner of the show is.
The 30-year-old seemed to let slip that she is the one who has won Matthew ‘Matty J’ Johnson’s heart in an interview on Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa.
Appearing on the radio show on Thursday, the brunette talked about her and Matty exclusively in present tense while fellow finalist Elise Stacey used only past tense.
‘You know when you have a real connection. You can’t fake that!’ Laura Byrne all but confirms she is The Bachelor winner

‘You know when you meet someone who ticks the boxes and who you have a real connection with. You can’t fake that and when it happens, it happens,’ said Laura.
Elise used very different language and said: ‘I definitely knew that I was in love.’
Laura also seemed a lot more bright and breezy than Elise during the pair’s appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O show on Thursday morning too.
When Laura was asked how she’d felt when she told Matty she loved him on Wednesday night’s episode she seemed far from forlorn as she laughed and joked about it.

‘It’s such an awkward thing to do, to lay it all out there on the line when he can’t say anything back to you. So you’re like ‘Cool, yeah, good chat!’ she giggled.
As she arrived at the KIIS FM radio for The Kyle & Jackie O Show on Thursday morning however, Laura looked decidedly glum.
Stepping from a car, in which Elise was also riding, Laura kept on her poker face and could only manage a small, polite smile.

With Sportsbet listing her as a front runner at $1.45, Laura has been an an odds-favourite from early on.
Fan theories also singled her out when both she and Matty appeared to make the same ‘reverse parking’ joke.
However, Laura’s expression could mean she took home the crown, as Matty had earlier explained that his chosen winner has kept the result very close to her chest.

There’s reason to believe Laura is the eventual winner however.
Not only did she admit she is ‘absolutely’ in love with Matty J recently, Daily Mail Australia snapped Laura and Matty J disappearing for what appeared to be a covert weekend away, just weeks ahead of the finale.
Matty will make his final decision on Thursday night’s episode, during a stunning location shoot filmed at a luxury Thailand resort.
