Don’t forget me! Last year’s Bachelorette Elly Miles steals the spotlight with a bikini selfie just days before Brooke Blurton’s season premiere
She failed to find love on The Bachelorette last year.
And it looks like Elly Miles is determined to attract attention ahead of this year’s season, starring franchise favourite Brooke Blurton.
The 27-year-old shared a thirst trap bikini selfie on Instagram on Wednesday, as part of a sponsorship deal with the label TJ Swim.

New leading lady Brooke revealed on Monday she was ‘petrified’ about returning to the reality dating franchise.
‘I was scared,’ she told TV Week magazine.
‘The last two times, I didn’t come out of this how I would have liked to,’ she said, referring to her previous stints on The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise.
Brooke explained: ‘Being the Bachelorette, I thought, “This is my chance to actually define who I want in a person.”‘
And while she admitted to being ‘petrified’ of handing out the roses rather than accepting them, she said she was beyond thankful to have been offered the role.

It’s third time lucky for the youth worker, who previously failed to find love on Nick Cummins’ season of The Bachelor in 2018 and 2019’s Bachelor in Paradise.
Brooke’s season marks two milestones because she is both the first Indigenous and bisexual Bachelorette, with both men and women vying for her affection.
