'The Bachelor' Contestants Find Love - With Each Other

Two contestants from the 2016 Australian version of "The Bachelor" have found love - with each other! The show's premise has a bunch of desperate women competing for the affections of one man, with whom they eventually marry and live happily ever after.
But Mashable reports that two contestants - Megan Marx and Tiffany James - have 'looked beyond the rose' and found a deep love with each other.
For several months, the former contestants have been posting adorable Instagram photos, with captions like "my favourite person" and "there are many things that I love but this is one."
Marx captioned the post saying of James "I have to admit that I felt so so proud to be with her, my favourite person, celebrating such a momentous occasion on the water -- a mutual love of ours. She is so confident in the ocean and in every adventure, as if every new experience is a winning of the lottery somehow; a chance to grow and learn and develop."
She continues: "From that first cocktail party, it was like this instant calibration between souls, as if we had known each other once before. Friendship ripened into something bolder, trust in a very strange situation was formed, and now every adventure we have rivals the other -- and continues to make plans for itself."
"She's helped me to disintegrate many of the ideals I've had that were harmful (about relationships, about career and 'stability') and for that I feel set free," she said.
Finally, an outcome of "The Bachelor" that really does end in true love!
