A Bachelorette NZ contestant is being tested for Covid-19.

TVNZ, which airs the show, has told the New Zealand Herald: “We have immediately implemented Ministry of Health advice and notified those we have identified as being in close contact with the individual, those people who have been in close contact are now isolating until test results are confirmed.

“Those in contact include TVNZ employees as well as external parties related to the Bachelorette NZ production.

“We stress that at this stage the contestant has not returned a positive Covid-19 test and TVNZ are taking all the necessary precautions in line with Ministry of Health advice.”

Parts of the show were filmed in Buenos Aires, Argentina, although filming there wrapped up some time ago.

Media will be updated when there is a test result, TVNZ have told Now To Love.
