Last week we put a cheeky poll on Instagram asking who your fave Bachelor has been.
You guys voted by the hundred and after carefully counting the results, the winner was Matty J.
So to celebrate his win, here’s a load of candid pics we’ve snapped of him over the years.
Make sure you’re following @TheWashOnline for future polls!

After filming Bachelor, Matty returned to everyday life and is often spotted surfing at Bronte Beach.
