Former "The Bachelor" star, Lee Thompson reportedly homeless (CapeTown ETC)

When The Bachelor South Africa first debuted in 2019, South African women were enamoured with the former rugby player that flashed across their screens.

In a recent video posted to his page, the former Bachelor can be seen trying on different winter attire and looking as suave as always. The owner reportedly told the publication that he had rented a room from her for R300/night, and when he left, the room looked like a “pigsty.” She later evicted him but reportedly had to call the police after he had once again made himself comfortable in her home.

However, this didn’t end in a fairytale for the fitness instructor and former rugby player, as he broke up with his chosen woman, Gina Myers just a few months later. “The whole room was strewn with clothes, rubbish, empty drink bottles and glasses.
