They know who I am and the kind of girl I am – I never do anything maliciously or to hurt people. When I came back in it put me on the outer and it was hard to watch how the girls were acting. No, I'm a woman who knows what I want and I stick up for what I believe in.

How did it feel to get the 'stage five clinger' edit? Do you think the show was an accurate representation of yourself? WATCH BELOW: Brooke Cleal returns to the Bachelor mansion. The only person who really knew what I'd gone through was Jimmy, he became my best friend right till the end. You miss out on hearing about dates and who's formed connections and girls were territorial over their connections and it wasn't the same and that instantly put me on the outer. I could see my confidence but I could also see my façade. It's not what people think – the girls called it a reset but it was really hard. When I came back in I just wanted to have a good time and forget about what had just happened because it was a really tough three weeks being at home. I sat down with my mum and she said, 'If you don't go back Brooke, the what if will kill you for the rest of your life and I know that will kill you more than any heartbreak.' It wasn't until the send-off with my grandpa, I got closure from that and I started thinking more rationally. I'd known this guy for six weeks and I was bawling my eyes out to him on the phone, it was hard.
