But sadly for Angie Kent, Ciarran is officially leaving the show.
Sources confirmed to New Idea that’s his shock exit from The Bachelorette was due to his nan passing.
The beloved Brit was notified with the sad news by his dad. It’s believed his dad wasn’t able to contact him at the time of his nan’s passing – as he’d lost Ten’s details.
The 25-year-old missed her funeral. Ciarran’s nan’s passing is said to be a complete shock to the family.
Our insider tells us that he didn’t want to leave, so he tried to stay for a week. But his heart just wasn’t in it anymore and “he was over the whole thing.”
Understandably, Ciarran was “super depressed, not himself.”
The larrikin couldn’t stop thinking about his nan and just didn’t want to be in the competition.
He ultimately left for the UK to see his family. Despite both Angie and production wanting Ciarran to return, the Brit decided it was best he closed his Bachelorette chapter.
New Idea also learned that Ciarran had a huge run-in with Jamie.
It is expected that his walkout will take place during a cocktail party – with the 25-year-old getting out of his suit and changing into normal clothes.
The model confided in Angie advising he had to walk away.
The Bachelorette was overheard saying, “I’ll never know, but he could’ve been The One.”
Last week, fans learned that an unnamed fan-favourite would be leaving the competition.
A source on-set told The Daily Mail that a producer informed the contestant of the tragic news off-camera, prompting him to fly home immediately for the funeral.
“The news sent shockwaves through the show, but everybody understood and respected his decision to go and be with his family,” the insider told The Daily Mail.
It seems Ciarran has moved on from Angie.
Ciarran was spotted with his ex-girlfriennd.
Daily Mail Australia unearthed Instagram pictures of Ciarran spending time with ex Renee Barrett, who starred in Matt Agnew’s season of The Bachelor.
In one picture, the pair enjoy a romantic dinner in Bali. In another, the pair pose alongside a group of friends.
The pictures were shared by Renee and, in an attempt to keep his identity a mystery, the reality star has covered Ciarran’s face in each image.
However, Ciarran’s tattoos – which can still be seen – are a dead giveaway.
“As soon as he found out she’d been cast on Matt’s season and was about to start filming, he decided to get on The Bachelorette,” said the insider.
“Casting producers were aware of this and it definitely helped his cause. His friends are saying he mostly went on to get back at Renee.”
