Welcome to another episode of The Blind Side Podcast, I’m your host Nath Smith and today I delve into the world of reality TV and chat with Ryan Jones. Ryan featured on The Bachelorette when Sophie Monk was the girl supposedly looking for love.
Ryan grew up in humble beginnings in South Auckland, New Zealand and then moved across the ditch in his early teens and then on to a scholarship a rugby school in the gold coast with aspirations of being an All Black.
With school not exactly working out and then a family tragedy, Rhino set sail for Europe to travel and play a bit of rugby and see the world.
On return to Oz he went back to his trade as builder which lead to the random invitation to go on the TV show.
We get deep about the behind the scenes of reality tv and some of the stories that came from the show and some of the other contestants which he is still mates with today. Ryan was painted as villain by the shows’ producers but is an all-around top bloke, have a listen and see Ryan’s Blind Side.
