Georgia Hassarati is not like other reality TV stars. She never looked for fame. It just came to her naturally as people fell in love with her personality in Too Hot To Handle and Perfect Match on Netflix. But did you know that Georgia, Cosmo’s summer issue cover girl, was actually planning to become… a midwife? 🙃

Before she got the call from Too Hot to Handle, Georgia had never thought about being on TV and the entertainment industry.

“I always wanted to be a midwife, so I studied that for like five years after school. I was actually delivering babies in the last year of my study when I was contacted to go on Too Hot to Handle, which I didn’t know was Too Hot to Handle at the time,” she said.

Even after the filming was finished, it took a whooole year for the show to air. That’s why Georgia Hassarati just let it go and came back to the mundane life she had.

“I was delivering babies and it just felt like the show didn’t happen. I remember being in the hospital with a midwife. We were on our lunch break, and this dating show popped up on TV, and the midwife said, “who would ever go on a show like that, it’s so embarrassing.” And I’m just sitting there like “yeah you’re so right!” the star recalled.

But the show came out. And, oh boy, it did *well*. Within three days after it aired, Georgia Hassarati had half a million followers within 72 hours, which entirely changed her life.

Will Georgia Hassarati ever go back to midwifery?

But what is better – life as a midwife or a reality TV star? Should we expect Georgia to go back to the past life?

“I will definitely go back to midwifery one day. But right now I definitely want to explore what the entertainment industry has to offer,” the beauty shared.

For now, Georgia just keeps warm memories of the good old days, photos from which you can check in her highlights on Instagram.
