'I do love you:' The Bachelorette's Michael Turnbull finally told Sam he loved her on Thursday night's finale
'There's no way on earth that I would have thought that I'd meet someone who I now care so much about,' he told her as they sipped champagne in the spa.
Confessing that it took a while for his feelings to warm up for the 26-year-old, he told Sam: 'The first week or two, I wasn't really sure because I didn't spend a lot of time with you.'
But the estate agent then put his heart on the line, revealing how his feelings had grown.
'I'm battling so many emotions right now. But, you know, having said that, I've just got to be honest and truthful to myself and not have any regrets and go all-in.
'So, you need to know now, Sam Frost, I do love you. And I do love, most of all, the way you make me feel,' he said before they shared a passionate kiss.

'To say the words, or tell someone that you love them, from me is just not a small deal.
'And, I'm at the point now where, you know... it's really hard.'
