How One HUGE Mistake Took Down a ‘Blonde Beauty’ Bachelor Star’s Shocking Secret

Bachelor star Marjorie Griffiths has avoided more jail time after she supplied large quantities of cocaine and MDMA.

Griffiths was arrested months after her stint on season 10 of The Bachelor ended and she was charged with supplying commercial quantities of drugs to undercover cops. 

A smug-looking Griffiths, 28, covered her baby bump as she strutted out of the NSW District Court after a stern dressing-down from the judge.

Dressed in black and sporting plumped lips, Griffiths gave photographers the finger, while a male friend gyrated in front of the cameras and poured water over their lenses.

The fallen reality TV contestant delivered more than 1kg of cocaine to an undercover operative in a deal worth $US240,000, according to court documents. 

When the officer asked how much was in the bag she handed over, she said she wasn’t sure and she didn’t do such things often.

But that didn’t stop her from delivering a second bag – this time containing 1kg of the party drug MDMA – to a public park, where it was later collected by undercover cops.

The drug drops qualify as large commercial amounts, but NSW District Court Judge Craig Smith took into account the fact that Griffiths thought she was moving a lesser quantity of illicit drugs.

In another handover in 2023, the ex-Bachelor star delivered a bundle of cash worth more than $116,000, which was the proceeds of a crime.

‘She was directed to make the relevant drop after receiving instructions consistent with her role as described in relation to (the drug supply charges),’ Judge Smith said.

But her – albeit unwitting – assistance to police ended when she was arrested and failed to hand over the passwords to her devices, falsely claiming she didn’t remember them.

Griffiths pleaded guilty to two counts of supplying more than a commercial quantity of drugs, recklessly dealing with proceeds of a crime and failing to comply with a digital order access direction.

Judge Smith determined Griffiths acted as ‘a runner or a driver’ for a group of people who arranged the drug deals on an encrypted platform.

‘I accept this is a serious example of the offence of commercial drug supply, notwithstanding her role,’ he said.

Griffiths, who is now pregnant, told a psychologist she knew her actions were ‘severely wrong’ but she did it for the money and to continue her drug abuse.

She has since been diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder as a result of her exposure to emotional and physical abuse, Judge Smith noted.

He accounted for her remorse and abstinence from drugs and alcohol when deciding she should serve her three-year jail sentence in the community, reporting regularly to a corrections officer.

She is also banned from using any internet-capable device and may possess only one mobile phone.

Given the 55 days Griffiths has already spent in jail, her sentence will expire in September 2026.

Judge Smith warned her not to commit further crimes or indulge in alcohol or drugs, telling the disgraced TV star ‘it’s almost inevitable you’ll go back in full time’.

Just two years ago, Griffiths was riding high on newfound fame as one of the contestants vying for the attention of The Bachelor’s hunky Thomas Malucelli, a restaurant manager from Tuscany, Italy.

Described as a ‘blonde beauty’ who would ‘get pulses racing in the mansion,’ Griffiths famously told another contestant she looked like ‘a squashed toilet roll.’

She lasted 12 weeks on the show before becoming the fourth wannabe bride Malucelli sent home.

Detectives have identified a 37-year-old man in Vietnam as the alleged mastermind of the syndicate.
