The Bachelor’s Heather Maltman has found love – with a Home and Away hottie!

Just when she thought she'd won over Sam Wood on The Bachelor, she was devastatingly sent home at the final hurdle. But all's well that ends well - Heather has confirmed she’s got a hot new fella!

Along with the rest of Australia, Heather Maltman thought she was a sure thing to win The Bachelor. But when she was sent packing after their now-infamous home visit, her heart was broken in front of the entire country.

But fast forward four months, and Heather is happily parading her handsome new beau.

At the Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival in Sydney the 29-year-old walked the red carpet with fellow actor Andrew Steel.

Chatting to AAP at the event the Sydneysider explained, “There is a man, [a] human of interest, Yes, you would have seen him this evening.”

“He’s quite sexy and now I’m getting all uncomfortable because he can probably hear this conversation,” she added.

Heather was shattered after getting evicted from The Bachelor.

If that wasn’t enough to convince us, the brunette beauty appeared on Studio 10 this morning and again confirmed the new relationship.

“I may be seeing a human being,” she said, before adding, “It’s very early.”

Heather’s new beau Andrew Steel is also an actor who has starred in Home and Away and Wonderland. He’s also worked alongside Rebel Wilson in the short film Bargain.

Although it would’ve been great to see Heather follow in Sam Frost’s footsteps and be on The Bachelorette next series, no one can deny it’s fabulous that she’s found love.
