The Golden Bachelor Australia – The Unfiltered Recap From The Inappropriate Gift Co

Grab your wine, ladies — it’s time to talk about The Golden Bachelor Australia! 🍷✨The match-anticipated dating show has finally landed on our screens, and it did not disappoint! We love watching people fall in love, and let’s be honest — this show might just be the wholesome TV hug we didn’t know we needed! Move over, Love Island. Step aside, MAFS, finally, a reality show has arrived for people who actually own furniture, remember dial-up internet, and still send Christmas cards.

So, let's start our recap with The Inappropriate Gift Co.'s take on the Golden Bachelor. He seems like the kind of man your mum would approve of, polite, well-mannered, and probably owns a good set of tongs for the BBQ. He doesn't appear to be here for Instagram followers or brand deals, so it is likely true love may unfold...watch this space.

Now, for the ladies, we thought we'd be here for a roast, but we were impressed! They're fit, funny (we love you Bianca Dye!) and fabulous! We can only hope we look this good in our 60's!! Sure, there might be fewer fake lashes and more sensible shoes than the regular dating shows, but these women bring heart, humour, and no doubt the occasional hot flash to prime-time TV.

So, our overall thoughts on this new addition to the silver screen? While we appreciate The Golden Bachelor gracing our screens, it didn’t quite hit the funny bone as hard as we’d hoped. We’re now seriously considering pitching ‘The Platinum Bachelor’ to Channel 10.

Following a similar script to the current bachelor franchise, but hosted at a retirement village. Instead of cocktails, it’s bingo night. People forget why they’re there, teeth go missing, and roses are swapped for blood pressure monitors. Drama erupts when Betty commandeers Ethel’s walker and things go fully off the rails when Doris accidentally snags Geoff’s dentures, thinking they’re hers. Love bites, literally.

We might not be religiously following this season’s Golden Bachelor, but it’s a gentle reminder that it’s never too late to flirt, dance, or slip into something sparkly, even if it’s just your compression socks and you're flirting with your husband of 25 years!

Let’s toast to love stories filled with laugh lines, a little Viagra, some KY, and plenty of confidence — because honestly, these are the love stories that feel a whole lot more believable!

And for all the golden girls out there, share the love and the laughs with some fun gifts from The Inappropriate Gift Co...
