There have been rumours of a couple this season (based on a comment from Annabel a couple weeks ago). I’m starting to think that it could actually be Petro and Alyona.
The way that they were talking about each other tonight got me thinking it, and then they were also getting very physically close tonight. This is just a photo of my TV screen but Alyona looked like she was very close going to go in for a kiss.
Alyona’s elimination left Annabel as the sole female contestant in the top 7, and could increase the likelihood of an all-male final three. It last happened in season 10 in 2018 when Sashi Cheliah beat Ben Borsht to win the title, with Khanh Ong coming third.
Synopses for next week - only a single elimination.
