The Bachelor: Tamlyn Hoskins and Hannah Norman are eliminated

Jimmy Nicholson sent another two ladies packing on Thursday night’s episode of The Bachelor.

Fitness enthusiast Tamlyn Hoskins, 25, and nurse Hannah Norman, 26, were the latest to be dumped from the mansion, leaving 13 lucky ladies still in the running to compete for Jimmy Nicholson’s heart.

The pair took the news from host Osher Günsberg graciously, and both wished the pilot the best of luck on his quest to find love.

Despite viewers being outraged by her behaviour earlier in the night, Stephanie Lynch was the final contender to be given a rose by Jimmy.

During the episode, she was seen lashing out at bookie’s favourite Holly Kingston behind her back – branding her the C-word twice and telling other competitors that spending time with her would ‘be like eating nails’.

After being handed an all-important rose, Stephanie, 27, told producers: ‘I’m not going to bend to Holly.

‘Holly’s actually full of s**t. I do not have a recollection of calling her a c**t. Pitchforks are at the ready!’

Stephanie had sensationally denied using the shocking term when confronted by Holly at the party – despite being caught doing so on camera twice.

Earlier in the day, while Holly enjoyed a paddle boarding date with Jimmy, Stephanie told a group of the ladies: ‘So, Holly is a c**t. 

‘I can barely tolerate 10 minutes with her, so having to spend an entire day with her would be like eating nails.’ 

She went on to cackle at the prospect of Jimmy sending back his beloved pet dog to the mansion instead of her, saying: ‘That would be a much happier addition to the house. 

‘I actually think she might be the first person to come back from one-on-one time without a rose and without a kiss.

‘That would just be a bucket of cold water on her stupid head.’

When it was later revealed that Jimmy had asked Holly for a brief chat at the cocktail party – after spending all day together on a date – Stephanie blurted out once again in front of everyone: ‘What a c**t’.

When confronted by Holly at the cocktail party, she said in disbelief: ‘I didn’t call you a c**t.’

‘I did hear it,’ Brooke Cleal responded. ‘And I did think it was really mean.’

‘When did I call her a c**t?’ Stephanie bit back.

Speaking to producers, Holly later says: ‘Hand on heart, I do not have a recollection.’

But when speaking to one of the girls outside alone, Stephanie utters the words: ‘Isn’t she kind of one, though?’

The Bachelor continues Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 10
