Who Else Is Coming To Bachelor In Paradise

Okay, people, gather 'round the metaphorical bonfire! Because Bachelor in Paradise is almost here, and you know what that means? Drama, tans, and enough awkward encounters to power a small city!
The most important question on everyone's mind is: Who's ready to mingle (and potentially make questionable life choices) on the beaches of Mexico? I've got the scoop (well, some of it, anyway. ABC keeps things tighter than my jeans after Thanksgiving dinner.)
The Confirmed Cast: Get Ready to Cheer (or Groan!)
Let's start with the names we know are heading south. Get ready for some familiar faces because this season seems extra packed with people who have been involved in the Bachelor franchise!
Must Read
We're talking about people like Aaron Bryant. Remember him from Charity's season? He's bringing that competitive energy to the beach, and honestly, I'm here for it. I feel like he is going to be one of those people that might just have a little bit of drama.
And then there's Eliza Isichei, she's not afraid to speak her mind. Honestly, if anyone brings the drama it is likely going to be her, as it seems like it follows her wherever she goes. Expect fireworks!

I'm also personally excited to see Blake Moynes back in the mix. A lot of fans were disappointed to see his relationship with Katie end the way that it did, so now he is looking for someone new!
Whispers and Wild Speculation: Could These Be Paradise-Bound?
Now, here's where things get juicy. These are the names that are floating around the rumor mill, the ones that make you go, "Oooooh, that would be interesting!" I will say, some of these names really surprised me, and if they are indeed on this season, then things are going to get pretty interesting.
There's been chatter about someone from Gerry's season. I can definitely see this happening as they had a lot of great personalities this season. The question is which ones will be going to Paradise?

And what about some of the more "villainous" characters from past seasons? You know, the ones we love to hate (and secretly kind of love)? The drama is always at an all time high when they are around.
Dream Cast Scenarios: If I Were in Charge...
Okay, this is where I get to play matchmaker (or, more accurately, drama-maker). If I had the power, I'd throw in a few wild cards just to stir the pot. Think about it!

I would love to see someone from an international season of the Bachelor. They don't need to speak English, it would just be hilarious. How would someone flirt with them? Maybe we can see some interesting conversations!
Ultimately, the beauty of Bachelor in Paradise is the unpredictability. You never know who's going to show up, who's going to fall in love (or lust), and who's going to end up crying into a margarita. And that's exactly why we keep tuning in!
So, grab your snacks, fire up your DVR, and get ready for another season of sun, sand, and seriously questionable decisions. Bachelor in Paradise is coming, and it's going to be a wild ride!
