Monday's episode of The Golden Bachelor saw a mass exodus of contestants, but it was Sunny's bold new hairstyle that truly captured viewers' attention. The 58-year-old CEO from New South Wales arrived at the Rose Ceremony sporting a 1960s-style brown pixie wig, a stark departure from her usual long, burgundy locks.
Social media erupted with reactions, with one viewer posting on X: 'No one mentions Sunny's wig??' Another added: 'It's a very cheap wig!' Others questioned the choice, writing: 'Sunny what is that wig?' and 'Lol Sunny's hair!' Despite the online mockery, Sunny was the first lady chosen by Barry 'Bear' Myrden at the ceremony, following a successful solo date where they enjoyed shucking oysters.
The episode also featured a dramatic exit when Terri, 61, a property investor from Victoria, rejected Bear's rose. 'I thought long and hard about it. I'm not going to accept your rose,' she told a stunned Bear. In a private conversation, she explained: 'It's so emotional. I just don't want to get hurt. It's just such a big emotional rollercoaster.' Bear comforted her, saying: 'I just can only imagine how you must be feeling. My heart goes out to you.'
Terri's departure left the remaining women shocked. Five contestants were sent home at the start of the episode, with two more eliminated by the end. Only Sunny, Kim, Janette, Gera, and Jan remain in the running for Bear's heart.
