Following his rather unsuccessful stint on Love Island and recent split from Stephanie Pratt, Jonny Mitchell is seemingly giving finding love another go as he’s set to appear on the new UK version of The Bachelor on Channel 5.

The show was last aired on British TV back in 2013, when another of Steph’s exes Spencer Matthews was on the hunt for a girlfriend. Welsh rugby player Gavin Henson also stared on the show the year before Spenny.

Unfortunately, neither of them managed to find ‘the one’.

“Now Jonny is single TV bosses have seen the stir he causes and there is talk of The Bachelor coming back and him being the lead role in the show,” a source told Metro.

“He has confidence, money and no shortage of women wanting to get with him, but he hasn’t met the right Mrs Mitchell yet.”

If you say so...

Apparently, Jonny had been in talks to star in The Bachelor straight after appearing on Love Island this summer, but had drawn to a close when he began dating Steph.

“Now he is free and single the conversation has begun again,” the source added.

Jonny’s ex Steph had recently been linked to Towie’s Pete Wicks after they were spotted leaving a party in the same taxi.

BUT it’s since been reported that Pete and his Towie co-star Chloe Sims are ‘growing closer’ and even plan to spend Christmas together.
