The Bachelors star Marjorie Griffiths could spend Christmas in jail after she was accused of allegedly supplying 1kg of cocaine and 1kg of methamphetamine.

Police allege the dating show contestant, known for flaunting her bikini body on Instagram, is a major player in an international drug syndicate and was personally involved in handling $814,870 from the proceeds of crime.

Court documents seen by Daily Mail Australia allege the 26-year-old supplied 1kg of cocaine on March 7 and 1kg of ice exactly three months later on June 7, both in Hornsby in Sydney’s northern suburbs.

The controversial ‘blonde beauty’ contestant who became embroiled in rows with other contestants on the Channel 10 program earlier this year will also be charged with money laundering.

The court documents allege that between February and June this year, Ms Griffiths knowingly dealt with the proceeds of crime amounting to $136,100 at Randwick, $260, 270 at Coogee, $302,000 at Double Bay and $116,500 at Guildford.

In a dramatic arrest, members of the NSW Raptor Squad marched through the quiet cul-de-sac where Ms Griffiths lives just before 7am on Friday and emerged with her in handcuffs.

According to court documents, she allegedly failed to comply with an “access to digital evidence order” and was placed in the back of a waiting police van.

Ms Griffiths, who describes herself on her professional profile as an actor and model, was taken to Gosford police station and charged with seven offences. She has not applied for bail.

She is one of seven people charged in an alleged syndicate being investigated by NSW Police Operation Phobetor-Enyo, along with the Australian Federal Police, the NSW Crime Commission and the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission.

Operation Phobetor-Enyo alleges a 37-year-old man in Vietnam runs a NSW money laundering syndicate converting large amounts of cash into cryptocurrency on behalf of organized crime groups involved in the drug trade.
