Bachelor Of The Week: Blake Worrall-Thompson


This week's Bachelor not only has a body that could make you melt (please divert your eyes upwards) BUT also the brains to go with it!

If you haven't seen him on Foxtel's hit TV show "Eat Yourself Sexy" as the resident trainer, then you really are missing out! 

When he is not running his own Personal Training business "Ministry of Wellbeing" (check it out here) Blake can be found playing footy, surfing and hanging out with the "lad's".

It's enough to make you want to go do some push-ups... ok.. not really.. but perhaps watch him do some anyway.. 

HH&H was lucky enough to discover that there is plenty more to this fit looking fellow than just a pretty face (and did I mention body?!)..

Who is your current Idol and why?

I’m not entirely sure I have an idol exactly but there are definitely people from many walks of life that I look up to and respect. There’s one person in TV (entertainment), another in fitness, a good mate of mine has an awesome relationship with his wife, and another bloke who’s great at life balance. 

What are 3 qualities you like in a girl?

I like a girl that can keep it real and keep it natural. There’s nothing more appealing or attractive to me than a girl whose looks are natural. Unfortunately there are too many gorgeous girls who coat themselves in too much make-up. . There’s no need! I think chicks are so much hotter when they go natural!

I also like a girl who can keep it balanced, chilled and fresh. I’ve been in a few long-term relationships that were way too stressful. It did nothing but create a toxic environment! So unnecessary. Keep it relaxed, keep it balanced and keep it fresh – try new things! Life’s too short to do otherwise.

 If you could play any character in any movie, who would it be?

Definitely MacGyver. He is a secret agent, a hero, has a cracker of a mullet, spent all day saving lives. That guy had it all. I’d be surprised if any bloke didn’t want to be MacGyver.

 Are you a boxers or brief boy?

I'm a briefs boy during the week for work, and boxers on the weekend. Wearing boxers at work or during workouts causes all types of problems!

What's currently on your nightstand?

Not much! I do my best to keep my bedroom clean. Two books, my iPod, keys, phone, wallet, a three wise monkey’s homeware piece and an oil diffuser thingy. 

What was the last song you downloaded?

Can’t hold Us by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. This dude has some serious talent. His album is awesome.  I have this song on repeat at the moment, such a feel good song and I just don’t seem to get sick of it.

What has been your biggest career highlight so far?

Doing the TV show "Eat Yourself Sexy” alongside the lovely Sarah Wilson on Foxtel’s Lifestyle You was probably the best thing so far. I’m living my dream when I combine my two passions – fitness and TV! I look forward to my next project in TV!  

If you were an animal, what would you be?

A dog maybe because they’re always happy and enjoy simple things? That’s me!

If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you say to them?

I reckon the Dalai Lama would be a pretty interesting guy. After I got over my initial stage fright, I would be keen to just chill with him (because he is a massive chiller) and talk with him about balancing life and keeping happy.

If you knew you were going to be stranded on a desert island, what three items would you take with you?

I’d take an AFL footy, Bear Grylls because without him I would probably last less then 24 hours. I’d probably just curl up into a fetal position and cry because I wouldn’t know what to do. I’d also take my dad because I know he’d be able to take the weird stuff that Bear catches and turn it into something edible.

Bachelor Of The Week: Andrew Maciver



Apart from being really, really, ridiculously good looking (yes I quoted Zoolander, what of it!) this part-time model is also an entrepreneur, voice over artist and actor.

If you are wondering where you have seen his face before, Andrew has featured in a number of advertisements for Myer, David Jones and King Gee, just to name a few.

Hailing from the Northern Beaches, Andrew is a lover of nature and enjoys all outdoor sports. 

Oh and did I forget to mention, Andrew completed Officer training in the Army Reserve and runs his own health food company. Yes ladies, this is a man who has it all! 

Want to know more about this dashingly handsome man?? Read on..


Who is your current Idol and why?

President Obama. Despite being left with a mess he managed to stand tall, orates brilliantly, inspire others and achieve what he set out to achieve.

What are 3 qualities you like in a girl?

Confidence, happiness and athleticism. Confident that she can give everything ago and hold her own in a crowd. Happy so that she sees the good things in life. Athletic so that she is strong and healthy.

If you could play any character in any movie, who would it be?

It would definitely have to be an action film. Standing up for what is right and being a motivator for the other characters.

Are you a boxers or brief boy?

I’m actually a boxer brief guy. I like the security of having things together without the material moving.

What's currently on your nightstand?

Books on nutrition and a candle.
What was the last song you downloaded?
Saturday Night by Cold Chisel. I was in a car with friends after dinner, a mixture of guys, girls and a dog, it was Saturday night and we attempted to sing it ha.
What has been your biggest career highlight so far?
I would have to say pitching a tv show with myself as the host to the Food Network in New York.
If you were an animal what would you be?
Hopefully a small fluffy dog that a woman can’t keep her hands off, cuddling and kissing. That or a dolphin, free and playful.
If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you say to them?
My idol Barrack. I would say “Well done mate, keep up the good work and don’t be afraid to do something extreme".
If you were stranded on a desert island, what 3 items would you take with you?
Survival would be foremost so a quality knife, a hammock, and large tarpaulin to use as shelter and collect rain water.

Bachelor of the Week: Sandor Earl





This week's Bachelor is sure to make a girl go weak at the knees! With crystal blue eyes, a face that could make you blush, and a body that... well... I don't think it needs explaining..

When he is not running around the football field, playing for the Canberra Raiders, he can be found enjoying a good coffee or during the off-season, at the beach (it's a little too far from Canberra).

Wondering why he looks so exotic?? Sandor is of Hungarian, Maori and English descent. Oh la la!

Who is your current idol?

My current idol, hmm that is a hard one. Off the top of my head I am going to say The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) he is a beast! He trains hard and kills it in his movies. I would love his life at the moment ha!

What are three features you look for in a girl?
Natural beauty, Independent attitude and haha probably a good cook.
If you could play any character in a movie, who would it be?
Umm I will go with Channing Tatum's character in "Magic Mike" or Brad Pitt in "Troy".
Are you a boxers or briefs guy?
Definitely briefs. I'm usually always training so boxers get a bit ennoying!
What is on your night stand?
Candles, a lamp, framed pictures of mum and myself, and my mates bub.
What was the last song you downloaded?
It was "Tonight" (Best you ever had) John Legend ft Ludacris
What has been your career highlight so far?
Probably the opportunity to play Finals Football with the Panthers and Raiders. It had a great atmosphere and was a great experience.
If you could be any animal, what would it be?
Definitely a Tiger, top of the food chain!
If you could meet anyone, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you say to them?
David Beckham maybe or Micheal Jordan. I would just ask them to tell me some cool stories from there lives!
What are 3 things you would take on a deserted island?
A knife, Wilson volleyball and some shoes!

Bachelor of the Week: Tim Cruickshank



Anyone that can claim they play for "Sydney Thunder in the Big Bash League" sure does sound... well... intriguing!

For those of you who are as sport illiterate as me, it basically means that Tim plays Cricket for a really good Sydney team (and represents NSW).

When not playing on the field, Tim enjoys anything to do with water and the outdoors. 

Having grown up on the Northern Beaches suburb of Avalon, Tim loves surfing, paddle boarding, strumming his guitar and planning his next big trip overseas.

That's not all ladies! He also does charity work. Yes that's right, this weeks Bachelor ticks all the boxes! 

Tim is currently involved in a fabulous not-for-profit organisation called "Happy Days Cambodian Village School Inc" that aims to provide a quality education to Cambodian children for a better future. 

It is hard to believe that this fit, handsome, beach dwelling, cricket playing, charity worker is still single! Want to know more? Here is the low-down on all things Mr Cruickshank related.. 

Who is your current Idol and why? 
I don’t really have an Idol. I get all my inspiration from my friends and family. 

What are three qualities you like in a girl?
A relaxed personality, Good skin and a nice smile are three things that always grab my attention. A girl that can make you laugh and confidence is also very important. As you can tell I'm not very picky. 

If you could play any character in any movie, who would it be? 
Ryan Gosling- "Crazy, Stupid, Love". Either that or Bradley Cooper in "Limitless". I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on a few of those pills. 

Are you a boxers or brief boy? 
Boxers. Although I always train in briefs. You need to counteract the bounce factor. Bjorn Borg are hands down the best underwear 

What is currently on your nightstand? 
IPod, Head Phones, 2 books, Watch, Hat, Hermes, Foxtel remote, $15 in loose change, a picture frame of my Mum, Sister and Niece, two necklaces and three pairs of sunnies. Maybe time to clean it hey. 

What was the last song you downloaded? 
Stubborn Love- The Lumineers. It’s a belter. 

What has been your biggest career highlight so far? 
I’m not big on Personal achievements. I try and gauge my success through my happiness and the enjoyment I get out of what I do. So far I’ve been very lucky in this department. 

If you were an animal what would you be? 
Well im a Taurus and everyone says im extremely stubborn so I’d have to say a Bull. 

If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you say to them?
Definitely my Grandfather. He passed away when I was still a young kid so I only have vague memories of him. He was also a cricketer so I would give anything to be able to sit down with him and have a good chat. Alive- Natalie Portman. Im pretty sure I’d shit myself and say nothing. 

If you were stranded on a desert island, what three items would you take with you? 
A guitar, fishing rod and a couple of my mates. I’d be happily stranded.

Bachelor of the Week: Cameron Laing



If Brad Pitt had a younger brother who could play the guitar, do funny impersonations and rock an awesome tan than this dude would be it!

You may have seen him performing on stage as the guitarist in band "Amy Meredith" and gracing the covers of last years Cleo Bachelor of the year awards. 


I was the lucky lady to chat to Cam about coconut supermarkets, Ninja Turtles and MORE..


Who is your current Idol and why?
I'm not sure if I actually have an 'idol' as such but I would have to say that I definitely look up to my Mum and Dad. They put up with so much and work their arses off every single day. 
I owe a lot to them, they are always there for me more than anyone in my life and to do that without any complaint and a big smile every single day is a hero in my books. I probably owe them a lot of money too, so i kind of have to say that!
What are three qualities you like in a girl?
I like a confident girl who doesn't take life too seriously. If you have a nice down to earth personality and a beautiful smile you will literally have me at 'hello.'
If you could play any character in any movie, who would it be?
I'm a massive Jim Carey fan so to play any of his characters in any of his movies would be an absolute blast. I love to make people laugh so I think if I could be Jim Carey, especially in Ace Ventura Pet Detective, I would be set. 
But I'm not him, so I guess I will just have to stick with bad impersonations in front of the mirror in my bedroom.
Are you a boxers or brief boy?
I don't think I've ever worn briefs. Like ever. So yep, I'm a boxers boy. Not silk boxers though, they make your pants slide down. I used to wear them when I was a kid but thats because they had ninja turtles on them and they were fucking cool.
What's currently on your nightstand?
A freaking mess. Ok, so there's deodorants, old photos, rings and necklaces, tweezers, Family Guy DVDs, keys, an old glass Coke bottle that I bought from 7/11 about 15 years ago that I haven't opened, guitar strings, guitar picks, sunglasses, various half empty Vodka and Tequila bottles, old unused cards from my wallet. I should probably tidy it. One day..
What was the last song you downloaded?
Well it wasn't actually a song but the new EP from Blink 182 "dogs eating Dogs" Its' great stuff.
What has been your biggest career highlight so far?
Playing guitar in Amy Meredith for the last 6 years had been a career highlight in itself. We have toured around Australia countless times with some of Australia's and America's biggest artists. 
We've travelled to New York, LA, Japan and even to places I thought i would never see like Afghanistan when we went to play for the troops. I've met thousands of people and had some of the best times of my life. Something i am truly grateful for.
If you were an animal what would you be?
I love to sleep, and my dog sleeps all day every day. Gets up to play and eat, then goes back to sleep again. Honestly, who wouldn't be a dog.
If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you say to them?
I would love to meet Jerry Seinfeld so I could personally thank him for creating the best show that has ever been on television. Ever.
If you were stranded on a desert island, what 3 items would you take with you?
The girl of my dreams. Even though I'd be ruining her life. I just assume that with all that time together she would get to know me and eventually fall madly in love with me and then, wouldn't want to be anywhere else in the world as long as I was there with her. 
Although she might find me to be a total dick and go and live on the other side of the island and the only time I would get to see her is at the coconut supermarket. Awkies. 
A frisbee, because frisbee's are awesome. Oh and Bear Grylls because he would ensure my survival by about a million percent. I would surely die without him after a few hours. 
I know people aren't items but Bear Grylls and a woman are much better than a lighter and some sunscreen in my opinion.
