Matty J has officially been named as this year's The Bachelor after weeks of speculation.

The former marketing director turned TV star was made famous after his heart was smashed into 1000 pieces last year when he lost out to Lee Elliot for Georgia Love's heart.

Matty says: “I’m so excited about the prospect of settling down. Timing is such a crucial factor when it comes to making this commitment and I know wholeheartedly, that there’s nothing I want more."

Matty is putting his career on hold for the show, taking a break from his position at influencer agency, The Projects.

The Bachelor has been a long-standing ratings winner for Network Ten, also attracting a slew of big sponsors each season.

Filming for The Bachelor's latest season began in Glenorie, Sydney this week.
