Lily, 23, is a crane operator who describes herself as ‘ambitious with a big personality’.

Lily says she has a lot of love to give but ‘is a hard girl to crack’.

She said she had seen ‘the kind of guys on The Bachelor usually are and hopes to meet a decent human who isn’t going to play her’.

Ashleigh, 28, a speech pathologist, describes herself as positive and optimistic and the ‘bubbliest, most enthusiastic freckle’. 

She said her parents had been together for more than 30 years, teaching her commitment ‘takes work’. 

According to Channel 10, Nicholson, 31, is ‘an intelligent and passionate go-getter who is ready to find his happily ever after’. 

Through a series of opulent dates and ‘fiery’ cocktail parties, Australia’s most eligible bachelorettes will vie for coveted red roses as they try to win the love and affection of this year’s bachelor.

The Bachelor Australia premieres at 7.30pm.
