Alex Nation famously found love with Richie Strahan after meeting on the set of The Bachelor.

And now it appears her ex-boyfiend, Tom Barbour, could have his eye on one of Alex’s Bachie co-stars.

Tom has been ‘liking’ some of 23-year-old Olena Khamula’s social media snaps, and after one look at her Instagram account, we don’t blame him.

Engineering and commerce student Tom let his fingers do the wandering across his phone keypad earlier this week, as he didn’t shy away from ‘liking’ a sizzling snap of model Olena.

In the photo, the blonde beauty showed off her incredible physique in a sleek black bikini.

Olena finished in third place on The Bachelor this year, and Tom is one of more than 4000 admirers who ‘liked’ her photo.

But it looks like Tom would have some competition, as Olena has been spotted out and about with her reported boyfriend Rodney Maroun recently.

Meanwhile Alex only has eyes for her new man Richie, and has been parading her romance on social media.

Since finding out that Alex won The Bachelor and is in a relationship with Richie, Tom spoke to Be about how he felt now.

"I'm proud of Alex. For what she has achieved," he said in September.

"I wish her nothing but happiness, both on her new adventure in life and with Richie."

Tom, who was left in a wheelchair following a serious accident when he was 18, previously told Woman's Day the former couple called time on their relationship after realising how different their priorities were.

“I am still studying and that is my main focus and often I would get so immersed in my studies that I would have no time for both Alex and her little boy which was not fair,” Tom added referring to Alex's son Elijah from a previous relationship.

He also claimed that he was the one to call off their relationship, unlike the reports suggesting Alex had been the one to end it.
