Ex-Bachelor star Nikki Ferris tries to ‘find a husband’ at Bunnings Warehouse

Meet your Bunnings Bachelorette! Ex-Bachelor star tries to ‘find a husband’ at the hardware store… after a desperate singleton went viral for her similar attempt

Former Bachelor star Nikki Ferris spent Monday morning shopping at Bunnings Warehouse, but she wasn’t looking for anything on the shelves.

The 25-year-old, who was rejected by astrophysicist Matt Agnew two years ago, visited the popular hardware store on Monday in search of something money can’t buy: a new husband.

The reality star shared a video to Instagram of herself running up and down the aisles of her local Bunnings in a wedding dress.

Lowest standards are just the beginning! Ex-Bachelor star Nikki Ferris, 25, uploaded a video of herself visiting Bunnings Warehouse to ‘find a husband’ on Monday 

Her stunt was inspired by a viral video of TikTok star Leesh Cunningham, who also visited a Bunnings Warehouse to look for a husband after giving up on dating apps.

However, Nikki gave her clip a Bachelorette-inspired twist.  

Nikki’s video begins with her stepping out of her car outside her local Bunnings while dressed in a beaded fishtail wedding dress and clutching a single red rose.

‘May I present, the Bunnings Bachelorette. So I went to Bunnings in a wedding dress to look for a husband,’ she captioned the video. 

As she struts towards the building, Nikki says she’s looking for ‘tools of any size’, then adds: ‘Bunnings are lowering their prices, and I’m lowering my standards.’

After entering the store, Nikki, who wears a novelty face mask, approaches a sales assistant and asks for directions to aisle 69.

Nikki then visits the cactus section and jokes: ‘Just a girl with a succulent [peach] trying to plant the seed for a good relationship.’

Nikki’s final attempt to snag a husband took place in the plumbing aisle, where an unsuspecting male tradie was shopping for new fixtures.  

‘Why am I so awkward?’ Nikki said as she slowly approached the high vis-clad shopper.  

Unfortunately, the man looked less-than-impressed by Nikki’s efforts, prompting the reality star to back out of the encounter at the last second.
