Ali Oetjen hasn't had the best luck when it comes to love, but hopefully, it will be third time lucky!

After getting her heartbroken at the tail end of Tim Robards' season on The Bachelor and an explosive break up with her Bachelor In Paradise beau Grant Kemp, Ali became Australia's Bachelorette for 2018 in the hope of finding her future husband, and she may have found that match with Taite Radley.

From the moment he stepped out of the limo at the mansion, Ali was struck by the dapper gentleman walking towards her and since then, the chemistry between the two has sizzled.

They've shared plenty of smooches and single dates, but will Taite be the one Ali gives her heart to? Well he's tipped to be the winner, even his rivals say so!

"He is just a well-grounded, great individual. He's got his life together, he knows exactly what he wants and he's a gentleman," Ali's former suitor Daniel told TV WEEK. "If anyone's to win it, I would definitely hope it would be Taite."

Take a look back at their Bachelorette journey and road to love in pictures.
