The Bachelor Australia 2023 is made all the more richer (and hotter) with the addition of basketball player Felix von Hofe as a leading man.

After So Dramatic! revealed there would be more than one Bachie babe heading up the tenth season, it was announced that the 27-year-old would join Jed McIntosh and Thomas Malucelli as the THREE unlucky-in-love leads.

Attracted to confident and ambitious women, Felix’s perfect gal is someone who is affectionate and family-orientated. Oh, and a partner who loves sports is a definite PLUS!

With basketball being at the forefront of his life, the Melburnian is not only a weapon on the court but is one hell of a smart dude.

According to his LinkedIn profile, Felix studied at Eastern Washington University in the United States before hitting the court with Melbourne United.

Not only is he a sportsman, but the 6’5” player has shifted his focus to sports commentating and marketing, having worked for Crocmedia.

He is also brand ambassador for Sportsbet.

Felix has a popular and award-winning podcast called Trash Talk as part of his deal with the betting giant.

Alongside fellow b-baller Peter Hooley, the pair dish out NBL hot takes on the reg.

However, it’s been reported that Felix’s career is on the back burner due to his strict contract for The Bachelors.

Felix Von Hofe’s basketball career

Felix is a small forward and began his stellar career as a member of the Victorian Junior State teams.

He also represented Australia in the under-17s and 19s before moving to Eastern Washington University.

His insane college career over four years saw him set the all-time record for three-pointers made, amongst some other awesome achievements.

Although nobody got on the court due to the global pandemic, in 2020, he signed with the Melbourne Tigers.

Let’s hope he’s just a player on the courts…
