Bachelor In Paradise will arrive with another season this week for another tropical rendezvous. The contestants in the ninth season are from ‘The Bachelor’ and ‘The Bachelorette.’ They will get another chance to connect to a new person in The Bachelor spin-off, Bachelor In Paradise Season 9.
Twenty-eight contestants will spend three weeks dating each other and find love in Mexico’s beachfront villa. The twist is that the contestants can quit their relationships or engagements to find a perfect partner in another contestant. Thus, it does not follow The Bachelor’s concept of sticking to a single partner.
In the Bachelor In Paradise Season 8 finale, Johnny got engaged to Victoria after proposing to her. However, they broke up before the reunion. Now, Victoria is happily in a relationship with Greg Grippo. Brandon proposed to Serene, and they got engaged, though they refused to marry.
Tyler and Britanny departed as a couple in the fifteenth episode but announced their break-up in the reunion. Michelle and Daniel were together at the reunion, though we do not have real-time updates regarding their relationship.

Bachelor In Paradise Season 9 Preview
Bachelor In Paradise Season 9 was filmed at the Playa Escondida resort in Sayulita, Mexico. Wells Adams will return as a bartender in the Bachelor In Paradise series for the sixth time in a row. Meanwhile, Jesse Palmer will be busy hosting the season.
Charity Lawson, Katie Thurston, and Hannah Brown will appear in the upcoming season. However, Hannah is engaged to Adam Woolard and Charity to Dotun Olubeko. Thus, they are only appearing as guests to advise the contestants instead of participating in the race.
