‘Bachelor In Paradise’ Adding ‘Bachelorette’ Villain Chad Johnson? Plus, Which Of Ben Higgins’ Castoffs Will Join Him?


So far this season, the most notorious name associated with The Bachelorette is Chad Johnson. His name was brought up even before the first episode aired as host Chris Harrison said that Chad would “make waves” inside the mansion.

But the 28-year-old real estate agent has gone way past simple waves. He has climbed to the top of mount villain and is reportedly taking his evil ways to the upcoming season of Bachelor in Paradise.

As previously reported by the Inquisitr, a post by Reality Steve showed Chad Johnson at the Houston airport preparing to fly to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, to catch up with some of the other rumored Season 3 contestants.

Although Johnson was eliminated by JoJo Fletcher in the last episode, he has yet to really leave the house. When we last we saw Chad, it looked like he was about to take his anger about getting eliminated out on the other suitors.

Rumored to join Chad-ageddon on Bachelor in Paradise are the twins from Ben Higgins’ season of The Bachelor, Emily and Haley Ferguson. Hollywood Take reports that a source said both the twins will be looking to find love on BIP Season 3.

In case fans don’t recall, the twins went through two of the most emotional breakups on Ben Higgins’ season.

Ben took both the twins to Las Vegas on a trip to visit their parents, however, Higgins ended up leaving Haley in Vegas. Emily got closer to Ben and survived another round of eliminations.

Lauren Bushnell’s fiancé famously took Emily to meet his parents, and his mom actually told Ben that she wasn’t mature enough for a lasting marriage.

Another member of The Bachelor who failed to find love with Ben Higgins and who will get another shot is Amanda Stanton.

Perez Hilton reports that Stanton was a favorite amongst fans and even made it to the final four in the fight for Higgins’ heart. Although they seemed to have great chemistry, Stanton is the mother of two daughters, Kinsley and Charlie. After meeting her girls, it never appeared that Higgins was not ready for both marriage and fatherhood.

Creator Mike Fleiss also teased fans with a couple of tweets recently, naming two names, Caila Quinn and Lace Morris, as Bachelor in Paradise contestants.

However, he deleted the tweets shortly afterward, so it is still unclear whether or not he was giving hints or just messing with fans.

Other rumors state that Jubilee Sharpe, Leah Block, Izzy Goodkind, Jennifer Saviano, Jami Letain, and Lauren Himle from Higgins’ season could make appearances.

James Taylor, Christian Bishop, Derek Peth, Grant Kemp, Vincent Ventiera, Evan Bass, and Wells Adams from JoJo’s Bachelorette season could also make the cut.

Some other possibilities include past Paradise contestants returning for another chance at love, including Carly Waddell, Ashley Iaconetti, and Jared Haibon.

Meanwhile, perhaps the most anticipated member that has a possibility of being seen at the party in Mexico is past Bachelor star Josh Murray, who split from former fiancée Andi Dorfman in 2015.

Murray has already revealed that he would be a willing candidate for season three of BIP.

While Murray has been away from the spotlight since his split with Dorfman, he did recently join the cast of E!’s new reality TV show, Famously Single.

Murray said that he’s come to the point in his life where he is ready for a wife and joined Famously Single to learn more about himself. He also stated he is open to BIP.

“Last year, after I ended things with Andi, there were a lot of things going on in my life at that time,” Murray revealed to Bustle.

“So [Bachelor in Paradise] wasn’t a possibility last year, but I love the franchise… I do think it can work if you have two people that are truly there for the right reasons and don’t have their own agenda.”

So fans, tell us who you think should be on the next season of Bachelor in Paradise. Comment below!
