Osher Günsberg will miss several episodes of The Bachelorette this season

Channel 10 confirms Osher Günsberg will NOT appear on The Bachelorette for part of the new season – after he was caught up in The Masked Singer’s coronavirus outbreak in Melbourne

Channel 10 has confirmed that Osher Günsberg will be absent for several episodes on the upcoming season of The Bachelorette.

This is because he is self-isolating in Melbourne following a coronavirus outbreak last month on set of The Masked Singer, which he also hosts.

The Bachelorette is currently being filmed at a mansion in Oxford Falls, Sydney.

Despite missing several episodes this season, Osher remains the official host of the dating show.

Rumours are swirling that The Project’s Tommy Little or former Bachelorette Sophie Monk could possibly step in.

The network previously said that filming of The Bachelorette was not impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak on The Masked Singer last month.

A Channel 10 representative said on August 23: ‘The filming of The Bachelorette is not affected.’

Last month, seven dancers working on The Masked Singer tested positive for coronavirus. The show’s stars, including Osher, were forced to self-isolate. 

The program is being filmed in Melbourne, which is at the centre of Australia’s coronavirus second wave.

Osher had originally been scheduled to return to Sydney to continue hosting the sixth season of The Bachelorette immediately after production wrapped on the singing show.
