The Bachelorette’s Elly Miles brutally shut down Harry Harris during their first-ever date on Thursday’s episode.

After enjoying a farm date, the pair sat down and talked about what they were looking for in a relationship, discussing their 10-year age gap and Harry’s young son. 

At first, Elly, 25, didn’t seem concerned that Harry, 35, is a father to a young son, telling producers: ‘I’ve got no issues with having a partner who has their own child.

‘But I am only 25 years old and it does make me wonder a little bit about our 10-year age gap,’ she added.

The blonde beauty then asked if he’d be open to travelling, and he said: ‘Not really. I’ve done all that.’

Elly told him: ‘I’m just not too sure whether we’re gonna line up. Like, I don’t know whether you’re a bit ahead of me.’

Fans flocked to Twitter to applaud the bubbly blonde for addressing their differences honestly, including one who commented: ‘Good job Elly.’

Another said: ‘Elly definitely wasn’t into the kids and age thing… and I’m glad she was being honest.’

‘You know what we stan? Someone that’s confident within themselves to know when there are conflicting thoughts! BACK YOURSELF ELLY,’ a third wrote.

‘Nah girl, run away. Harry’s got big red flags for what you want,’ one viewer shared.

Red flags: There were other viewers who questioned why Harry was interested in someone with very different interests

But there were other viewers who questioned why Harry was interested in someone with very different interests.

‘Isn’t Harry like 35? He’s a decade older than the woman? Where’s the spanner? Obviously you’re at different stages of life,’ one tweeted.

A viewer wrote: ‘Another good question might be “why did you, a 35 year old man, gravitate to me, a 25 year old, and not my 30 year old sister?”‘ 

'Harry has already been to Mykonos, Berlin and potentially Switzerland so his days of international travel are OVER thank you very much, that is a box that is well and truly ticked,' another joked

‘Why get a girl to be the bachelorette who doesn’t want to settle down?’ a third questioned. 

‘Harry has already been to Mykonos, Berlin and potentially Switzerland so his days of international travel are OVER thank you very much, that is a box that is well and truly ticked,’ another joked. 

Their polarising conversation failed to get Harry a coveted rose during their date, leaving the single father flustered and nervous about his place on the show.
