They have very suddenly and very surprisingly become Australia’s favourite couple: He, the quiet villain from Sophie Monk’s season of The Bachelorette and she the crowd favourite from Matty J’s The Bachelor.

Now, Sam Cochrane has detailed the very moment he realised he was falling in love with Tara Pavlovic in an interview with Who Magazine.

“Her sense of humour can be quite gross at times and she did gross me out quite early on. I was like ‘What?’ No woman says what you just said, no human says what you just said and she did that and I think…,” he told the magazine.

“I wanted someone that I could say whatever the hell I wanted. That moment she said something really gross – I won’t go into detail – but it was like, it was with a coconut, it was a chopped coconut and what she said about it was literally one of the foulest things I’ve ever heard anyone say but I just laughed and I couldn’t stop laughing and every time I saw her after that, I’d just laugh and that’s sort of where it started.”

In a separate interview with OK! Magazine, Cochrane said he realised he was falling in love with Tara every morning they woke up together.

“It’s hard to pinpoint when I started to fall in love, but I remember the moments that I’d wake up or Tara would wake up first, and you get the opportunity to take stock of what’s going on.

“It came out of nowhere, but when it came it was a little but like an anvil – it was quite special.”
