Bachelor mansion a sham
Fans of The Bachelor, you've been punked.
Remember that dreamy, waterside Noosa mansion Lisa calls home? It was a fake.
Blake visited the homes of the remaining bachelorettes last week on Network Ten reality series.
Lisa and Blake kayaked up to the stunning Queensland property and she lied that it was her family home.
"Wow, it's huge," Blake said as they approached the palatial residence.
"Welcome to my home," Lisa replied.
A Shine Australia spokesperson said the property was rented on Lisa's parents behalf.
"Their current family home in Noosa was not able to be used for production purposes," they said in a statement.
The property is listed on the R&W Noosa Holidays website to rent at a cost of up to $1050 a night.
It's a Noosa Waters four-bedroom, waterfront home with terraces, a 25-metre pool and jetty.
Comment is being sought on why viewers were misled and whether or not the properties presented as the family homes of Louise in Thredbo and Sam on the Mornington Peninsula were in fact owned by their families or rentals for filming purposes.
The penultimate episode of The Bachelor will screen on Ten at 7.30pm tonight when Blake travels to South Africa with Louise, Lisa and Sam.
