The Bachelorette SA

Qiniso Van Damme was dumped in S2 of The Bachelor SA but she’s back headlining her own show as she searches for love – and this time, Qiniso is in control.

“I had some work to do in terms of figuring out the kind of partner I desired. This goes for the qualities that I seek in a relationship and traits that I’m not willing to compromise. Basically, the show reminded me of the sort of love that I deserved and needed,” says the 27-year-old.

Expect the same kind of cheasy cute dates as The Bachelor (they’re filmed by the same team) and most of the venues and the Bachelorette Mansion are the same. But with Qiniso running things, it’s a whole other ballgame – she’s outspoken, quirky, bubbly and dishing out roses.

“I’m not forced to do anything I don’t want to do. That decision (who gets the final rose) will be up to me and the person that I choose, because it’s their journey too,” says Qiniso as the dating fun gets underway.
