Bachelor Richie stills holds a flame for ex-girlfriend Alex

It appears Richie Strahan still isn’t over his ex-girlfriend Alex Nation, even after she left him for a woman.

The former Bachelor showed his love for the 26-year-old by ‘liking’ one of her Instagram posts.

The photo in question showed the mother-of-one in lacy lingerie.

Later that night Alex shared another modelling shot of herself with the caption “I can only turn left” in reference to a line from the classic modelling spoof Zoolander.

Curiously former Bachelorette contestant Dave Billsborrow also commented on the post writing: “I heard you go both ways” followed by a winking emoji.

Alex later replied: “hahahaha very clever bilby!”

These latest shots come off the back of a series of paparazzi snaps showing Alex passionately kissing her new lover – 31-year-old Maegan Luxa.

The pair is alleged to have met while playing for the Frankston Bombers AFL team.

A source told New Idea the women had been dating each other for about a month and that Richie was left “devastated” by the revelations.

Meanwhile, Richie also shared a photo of himself to his own Instagram account last night as well.

This one wasn't quite as revealing as Alex's, and featured the Perth boy shaking out his growing curls with the caption: #shakeitoff
