The former contestants may have failed to win a rose from the hunky single guy, but they did find love… with each other.

We can’t make this stuff up.

In a slightly shocking, but mostly amazing, turn of events, the two Bachelor hopefuls have been posting the sweetest photos of themselves on Instagram.

Judging from these images, the friendship they established on the show has blossomed into something else.

“I met Tiffany in a very strange situation,” wrote Megan. “Well… we were kind of dating the same guy.”

Clik here to view.. From that first cocktail party, it was like this instant calibration between souls, as if we had known each other once before. Friendship ripened into something bolder, trust in a very strange situation was formed, and now every adventure we have rivals the other- and continues to make plans for itself. Yesterday I flew this beautiful woman to The Abrolhos islands for her 30th birthday! I have to admit that I felt so so proud to be with her, my favourite person, celebrating such a momentous occasion on the water- a mutual love of ours. She is so confident in the ocean and in every adventure, as if every new experience is a winning of the lottery somehow; a chance to grow and learn and develop. To Tiffany, experience wins over the worldly acquisition of 'things' every time- and I think this is why she is so open-minded, so accepting of others, so fun and so at ease with letting winds blow her towards a variety of opportunities. She's helped me to disintegrate many of the ideals I've had that were harmful (about relationships, about career and 'stability') and for that I feel set free. Thank you for always asking questions (detective Tiff), for being curious about people, ideologies and the universe; for loving people with such a wholesome love that I don't know if I would ever be able to emulate. It inspires me. Happy Birthday Tiffany. I love you.

“Friendship ripened into something bolder, trust in a very strange situation was formed, and now every adventure we have rivals the other — and continues to make plans for itself,” the 27-year-old added.

Megan’s Instagram features photos of the two ladies having the time of their lives in the Abrolhos Islands off the west coast of Australia.

Turns out, Megan flew Tiffany to this paradise to celebrate her partner’s 30th birthday.

She wrote: “I have to admit that I felt so so proud to be with her, my favourite person, celebrating such a momentous occasion on the water- a mutual love of ours.”

There are many things I love, but here is one. She's able to cop the unwelcome, contaminated streams from the world, without becoming impure; because she is like the sea. Her heart is full of deep ocean minerals that splinter and disintegrate all the bad tastes, the hurtful mass ideas, and the ways of living that kill simple joys.

They are so obviously smitten with one another, and we couldn’t be happier for this lovely pair.

Labels or no labels, this has got to be the greatest love story to ever come out of The Bachelor.
