ABC told EW: “The romantic dating series will feature new twists, shocking surprises, unexpected guests and some of the most unlikely relationships in Bachelor history, plus all the usual romance, drama, and tears we’ve come to expect from the Bachelor franchise. It all comes together in the romantic TV event of the summer.”
Will Bachelor in Paradise be a suitable replacement for Bachelor Pad? It is too soon to tell – I don't want more amazing journeys and "here for the right reasons" and roses. I want drunken shenanigans and "stab you in the back for $250,000" and hookups. #SorryNotSorry
TELL US – WILL YOU WATCH BACHELOR IN PARADISE?
