It’s almost paradise time! Bachelor in Paradise is set to return for its milestone tenth season in the very near future. Jenn Tran’s season of The Bachelorette is currently underway, and now we know at least two of her suitors will be headed to Mexico looking for a second chance at love.

Given how long we had to wait for news about Bachelor in Paradise Season 10, TV Insider has decided to round up all the latest updates about the upcoming season.

Is Bachelor in Paradise coming back in 2024?

Bachelor in Paradise will not return for Season 10 in 2024. The tenth season will premiere in 2025. An exact premiere date has not been announced by the network. The series will air on ABC and stream next day on Hulu.

Season 9 premiered all the way back in September 2023. Except for 2020, Bachelor in Paradise has premiered a new season every year since 2014.

Who is in the cast of Bachelor in Paradise Season 10?

The first two cast members to join Season 10 were announced during the Men Tell All special on August 27. Jonathon Johnson, who made Jenn’s top three but was eliminated in Hawaii, was the first Season 21 cast member to get invited to be a part of Bachelor in Paradise Season 10.

“I’m really just hoping that I can apply what I learned from Bachelorette to Paradise, that ability to validate my own feelings and come to conclusions quicker,” Jonathan told TV Insider and other outlets. “If I like somebody, I’m gonna let them know. If I love somebody, they and anybody else that’s watching is gonna know. It’s not gonna be hidden. It’s not gonna be too late. I’m gonna let them know in that moment right then and there that you’re the one that I want, and I’m not gonna hide it. So hopefully going into Paradise, I keep that energy and I hold myself to that standard.”

At the end of Men Tell All, Hakeem Moulton was the second of Jenn’s guys to join Season 10. He revealed to TV Insider that he hopes to see one Bachelor Nation alum in particular on the beach. “I hope to see Olivia Lewis,” Hakeem said. “She’s beautiful. I think she has a lot of swagger, and I think she has a lot of class, and she has a lot of personality. I think she could definitely handle me because I’m also a lot of personality. I think we can bond on being possibly being friends first, and then hopefully we can possibly see if we can see something romantically.”

The rest of the cast will be revealed closer to the premiere date. However, ABC executive Robert Mills hinted that another of Jenn’s suitors will be extended a Bachelor in Paradise offer. When someone tweeted that Brett Harris deserves an invite, Robert responded, “He will get one!!”

Even though we don’t know the official cast list yet, TV Insider has rounded up a list of dream stars we’d like to see turn up on BiP. Our dream cast includes Maria Georgas, Peter Weber, Edwina Dorbor, and more.

Who will host Bachelor in Paradise Season 10?

Jesse Palmer is expected to return as the host of Bachelor in Paradise Season 10. The former Bachelor has become the franchise host since Chris Harrison’s departure in 2021.

Will Bachelor in Paradise return for Season 11?

Bachelor in Paradise’s future beyond Season 10 is unclear. Bachelor Nation fans were initially worried about the fate of the spinoff when Season 10 wasn’t part of ABC’s fall 2024 schedule. The network cleared up any doubts about BiP in July 2024 when the show was officially renewed.

Will there be a Golden Bachelor in Paradise?

It’s possible! Following the success of The Golden Bachelor, the team behind the franchise is looking at more senior citizen-centric spinoffs.

“We’d love to do that eventually,” The Bachelor executive producer Jason Ehrlich told Variety. “I mean, how fun would it be to see single men and women in their 60s and 70s on the beach or in the Bachelor pad or somewhere, hanging out and falling in love? We’d love to do that and hope we get the opportunity.”
