It is time for rumours to take a break. Blake Garvey and Louise Pillidge have gone public with their relationship. The two have confirmed that they are in love and are planning to move in together. Blake won Louise over by writing a letter to her, which she opened a few days before the airing of "The Bachelor Australia" Season 2 finale, according to an exclusive interview that Blake and Louise gave to Woman's Day magazine.

Louise was the second runner-up on the show. Blake sent her home in the penultimate episode and in the season finale, he proposed marriage to Sam. Even before the airing of the final episode, there was much speculation that Blake and the girl to whom he proposed marriage have split up, as Network Ten had cancelled all the interviews. Sam got engaged to Blake on the show and in less than 24 hours, Network Ten released a statement confirming that Sam and Blake have ended their engagement. Sam revealed that it was Blake who pulled the plug on their engagement.

After shooting the proposal scene, it looks like Blake realised that Sam and he can be fun together but there is nothing more to their relationship. In his interview to Woman's Day, Blake said that he should have not proposed to Sam but the situation was "surreal."

Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) has quoted him as saying to Woman's Day that he "never tried to be fake" [an anonymous bachelorette revealed last week that some of the contestants called him "Blake the fake"]. According to Blake, he did not stop being a gentleman and respectful when the cameras stopped rolling. Also, the love he felt for Louise did not end.

"What also didn't end was the love I felt for Lou and, as much as I tried to file it away, it kept growing," Blake said to Woman's Day, as quoted by SMH. Blake wrote a letter to Louise, expressing his love for her and he handed the letter to her father.

In the letter, Blake wrote that he wants to be Louise's "first, last and only" love. He also said in his letter that what they shared was something "truly special." He ended his letter saying, "Louise, you have my heart, you share my soul and in my mind you are the one for me."

Blake said to Woman's Day that they want to start their lives together. He said to the magazine, as quoted by SMH, "We're moving in together, not simply moving across the country to start dating."
