Former Bachelor Zac Franich confesses his love for Erin Simpson

He couldn't find lasting love on The Bachelor, but Zac has found his soulmate in Erin and he wants the world to know it.

The Bachelor New Zealand hunk Zac Franich is head over heels in love – and he wants the world to know it.

The handsome reality star has finally found his soulmate in TV host Erin Simpson, and the lovebirds have shared the story of their whirlwind romance along with a sizzling photo shoot in the latest issue of Woman’s Day.

Zac, 29, went to extreme lengths to find love by signing up to Three’s The Bachelor NZ last year – only to have his romance with Viarni Bright, 23, fizzle after five months.

But cupid soon struck for Zac and Erin – who had previously met at a SkyCity event when they were both in relationships – and they were soon inseparable.

They’ve just been together three months, but Zac confesses it’s love – and has told his sweetheart so.

“We were just sitting there on the couch one Sunday afternoon and I looked at her and I just said it,” tells Zac, who says he realises he’s found something special with former kids’ show host Erin.

“We were both saying the other day that we are glad we have taken a risk and decided to fall in love again,” says besotted Erin, 35. “It feels so good because I just get Zac so much.”

Zac and Erin were first spotted together in February and went public with their relationship soon after.

The pair are now planning to set up house together before heading on a romantic getaway to Hawaii.
