Art & Matilda’s Christmas secret

This time last year, lovebirds Art Green and Matilda Rice were total strangers.

In fact, it was only Christmas Eve 2014 that the six-packed paleo fanatic signed on the dotted line to star in The Bachelor NZ.

But now the genetically blessed pair – who today launched their own Facebook fan page – are ready to celebrate their very first Christmas together, and it’s set to be a doozy, with four separate festive functions all over the country, with each of their mums and dads.

“But before all that, we will have our own Christmas together,” reveals Matilda. “It will be a bit like date night where we go out for a nice dinner, but we’ll have our presents to exchange, which we aren’t allowed to spend a cent on – it’s all very top secret!”

For all the details of their holiday plans and more on their heart-warming romance, see our Christmas Bumper Issue, which also features My Kitchen Rules New Zealand judge Grace Ramirez, The Block NZ Villa Wars host Shelley Ferguson, Dancing with the Stars NZ darling Chrystal Chenery, MasterChef New Zealand star Hayley Marie Bilton and The X Factor NZ champion Beau Monga.
