Jimmy Nicholson has escalated the front yard feud with his neighbour after he aired their “un-Australian” lawnmowing act on social media.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last week, the former Bachelor star took to Instagram to point out the noticeable difference between his neighbour’s grass and his own.<\/p>\n

He asked his followers if it was “fair play” for his neighbour to mow the grass right up to their property line and leave Nicholson’s small section of grass untouched.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSurely this is the most un-Australian act of 2026,\u201d the 35-year-old said in the social media post, which has since amassed over 14,000 likes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Our driveway neighbour has mowed to there … That is passive-aggressive mowing at its finest,” he laughed in the clip.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, the pilot has provided fans with an update,\u00a0 revealing that he has “found a solution” after receiving a lot of “conflicting responses” to his initial video.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nicholson posted a clip of himself mowing his section of the lawn and leaving a tiny strip of grass between him and his neighbour untouched.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He then placed a makeshift cardboard sign on the patch of grass, which read: “neutral territory”, while also bordering the piece of lawn with a string barrier.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Kanye<\/p>\n

“UPDATE | neighbour mowing situation: resolved diplomatically,” he captioned the post.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nicholson’s act left social media users divided, with some labelling it “petty” and others praising the reality star’s response as “gold”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Why are you being so petty? Just mow your lawn and don\u2019t be that neighbour,” one person wrote.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another chimed in: “You are the problem not them. Mow your own lawn.”<\/p>\n

A third simply penned: “Childish”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pointing out the hostility in the comments section, one person exclaimed: “Wow, people seriously can\u2019t take a joke can they, these comments are next level.”<\/p>\n

“Haha this is gold and you are correct, very un Australian to not mow the extra two lines,” another added.<\/p>\n

A third person offered: “This comment section reinforces how Australians can’t take a joke anymore.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jimmy Nicholson has escalated the front yard feud with his neighbour after he aired their “un-Australian” lawnmowing act…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":593138,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,289585,134,10235,289586,84322,118284,427],"class_list":{"0":"post-593137","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-australian-social-media","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-gardening","13":"tag-jimmy-nicholson","14":"tag-lawnmower","15":"tag-the-bachelor","16":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=593137"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593137\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/593138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=593137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=593137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=593137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
