Two former contestants on Australia's The Bachelor have found love with each other.

According to Fusion, contestants Megan Marx and Tiffany James fell in love while taping the reality series which revolves around a pool of women competing for the affection of a single bachelor.

In an Instagram post, Marx wrote that their instant friendship turned into “something bolder” on the show.

“From that first cocktail party, it was like this instant calibration between souls, as if we had known each other once before,” she captioned a photo of the pair on an Abrolhos Islands beach. “Friendship ripened into something bolder, trust in a very strange situation was formed, and now every adventure we have rivals the other – and continues to make plans for itself.”

“Yesterday I flew this beautiful woman to The Abrolhos islands for her 30th birthday! I have to admit that I felt so so proud to be with her, my favourite person, celebrating such a momentous occasion on the water – a mutual love of ours. She is so confident in the ocean and in every adventure, as if every new experience is a winning of the lottery somehow; a chance to grow and learn and develop. To Tiffany, experience wins over the worldly acquisition of 'things' every time – and I think this is why she is so open-minded, so accepting of others, so fun and so at ease with letting winds blow her towards a variety of opportunities. She's helped me to disintegrate many of the ideals I've had that were harmful (about relationships, about career and 'stability') and for that I feel set free.”

“Thank you for always asking questions (detective Tiff), for being curious about people, ideologies and the universe; for loving people with such a wholesome love that I don't know if I would ever be able to emulate. It inspires me. Happy Birthday Tiffany. I love you,” she added.
