Invercargill teacher Alysha, one of the stars vying for the heart of a man on the TV3 reality show, last night admitted to The Bachelor Art Green that she was still legally married to her ex.
She told Woman's Day the admission was "a huge weight" off her shoulders.
Auckland lawyer Danielle Beston, another contestant on the show, was also revealed to have been married. She is embroiled in a High Court civil case with her estranged husband.
Alysha, 26, told Woman's Day she was waiting for the right moment to tell Green.
"The big question for me was 'When do I tell him?"' she said.
"Personally, I don't think the first date is the appropriate time to tell someone, just like talking about how many kids you want or the kind of wedding you want.
"So I decided to tell him on the second date. When I told him, I told him that he had an option, and that I would go if he wasn't comfortable with it," she said.
Green was supportive of the news, instead sending Natalie home after last night's elimination.
