Channel 5 reveal who The Bachelor is for 2019

The Bachelor UK is on its way back to our screens and promises to include more drama and romance than ever before and today Channel 5 have announced who the bachelor will be.


31 year-old Alex Marks owns his own personal training studio in South London which also specialises in fitness for pregnant and post-natal mothers and he's the youngest of three brothers.


Alex admits that he has poured all of his time and money into setting up his business and now that it’s a success, he is now looking for the love of his life with the hope of starting his own family.


He also admits that he often attracts female attention, especially when out with his group of close male friends. With an intelligent streak and adventurous passions, he’s looking for his perfect match.



The new series of The Bachelor UK, hosted by Mark Wright will see seventeen single ladies competing for the affection of Alex Marks, who is ready to fall in love with his perfect partner across ten episodes.


Each episode sees the Bachelor get to know each girl through a series of romantic, glamorous and exhilarating dates, all leading to the ‘rose ceremony’, the climax of each episode in which he must eliminate those he feels he has no future with, until only one girl is left standing.


Alex runs a personal training business and seemingly has it all. But he longs to find that special someone to share his life with. Guiding the audience and Alex on his journey to true love is TV presenter and heartthrob Mark Wright, who serves both as host, friend and confidant to bachelor Alex.


Filmed in breath-taking locations in South Africa, Antigua and the UK, love is guaranteed to blossom as Alex and the girls grow closer. The path to true love is never easy so brace yourselves for surprises, shocks and twists and turns on this emotional rollercoaster sand for some on this journey, its ‘Love Worth Fighting For’.


The Bachelor UK returns soon to Channel 5
