Rejected Bachelor to front new TV show

The Bachelor‘s Heather Maltman will make her television-hosting debut next year on the latest season of I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! Now.

Maltman came into the public eye as the favourite, friend-zoned Bachelor competitor on the 2015 season of the reality dating show.

Although the aspiring film-maker may not have won Sam Wood’s heart, the show won’t be her final foray into broadcast television.
