Break out the margarita mix because Bachelor In Paradise Australia is heading back to our screens, with a whole new group of reality romance rejects looking for love in a Fijian resort!
The full cast list for 2019 was released earlier this morning, with some big names from previous seasons of The Bachelor Australia and The Bachelorette Australia in the mix.
Among the contestants is the 2016 star of The Bachelor, Richie Strahan, and his ex-girlfriend Alex Nation. The relationship between Richie and his chosen winner Alex came to a close just a few months later in early 2017.
Shortly after, Alex began dating her AFL teammate Maegan Luxa. In December of the same year, Alex and Maegan revealed that they were engaged, however, four months later, they had split.
Currently single, and still searching for “the one,” both Alex and Richie signed on to head to Paradise and uncomfortably face-off… much to the delight of viewers.
Though we know Richie and Alex will make for gloriously uncomfortable television, it seems serious romance is on the cards for at least one of them.
In a promo released this morning, Alex is seen getting close with the adorable Brooke Blurton, who walked away from Nick Cummins in last year’s season of The Bachelor.
Alex and Brooke are seen sharing a kiss in the new trailer.
“If a kiss is electric and amazing and you really feel it, you’re on! I’m on!” Alex says in a voice over in the promo, which you can watch in the player at the top of the article.
But Brooke isn’t the only one spending time kissing Alex, with the blonde beauty seen puckering up for a mystery male.
Our money is on The Bachelorette Australia 2018 star Bill Goldsmith, and not just because we’d recognise that chiselled jawline anywhere.
We’re also going with Bill because the duo were spotted together in Melbourne after the show wrapped up filming in December.
If Bill and Alex have ended up together on the series, there is every possibility Brooke has been left heartbroken again.
After all, she was shown crying while the word “heartbreak” was sprawled across the screen in the promo.
“I’m just like a broken little girl right now,” Brooke tells the camera.
When it comes to reality TV love triangles someone is always going to get hurt, but, such is life when you’re on Bachelor In Paradise!
