Bachelor Arie Luyendyk will dump 29 girls this season, but there are at least 5 contestants who may get second chance at finding love on Bachelor in Paradise.
Although Bachelor in Paradise was a hot mess last summer, we fully expect ABC to bring it back during for another season in August 2018. That means a bunch of girls from Arie’s season return to TV to find love (or increase their Instagram followers), along with several guys who will be rejected on the upcoming season of The Bachelorette.
We’ve come up with five girls we’ll definitely see in Paradise this summer. Of course, they may find love off-camera before filming begins in June. But, chances are, these ladies will be holding out for another round of speed dating on national TV.
Bekah Martinez
Arie came to his senses and dumped Bekah in Italy. We love her, but their relationship would have bombed as soon as cameras stopped rolling. And it’s not just the age thing. She recently turned 23 and is really mature for her age.
Her sexual chemistry with Arie was great, but Bekah has much more to offer. Arie wears cardigans and goes to bed at 8 p.m. — she’d be bored out of her mind.
We’ll bet our last bottle of wine Bekah shows up in Paradise.
UPDATE: Chris Harrison confirmed during the Women Tell All that Becca will be on Paradise this summer
Chelsea Roy
Unless she gets back together with New England Patriots star Julian Edelman, we can totally see Chelsea accepting an offer to appear on Bachelor in Paradise Season 5.
She’ll fill Amanda Stanton’s shoes as the resident single mom and, from what we can tell, she’s genuine about finding love.
Not that a TV show is the best way to do that, but look at Evan and Carly — and their CUTE little baby, Bella!
Caroline Lunny
We know she’s a successful real estate agent, but surely she can take a few weeks off to tape Paradise. Caroline is smart, funny, and beautiful — a total catch. We didn’t get to know her all that well while she was on Arie’s season, but we’re rooting for her to make a TV comeback.
Jenna Cooper
Summer is all about sun and fun, right? We’re certain Jenna would make Paradise loads of fun. She’s entertaining, not to mention beautiful. Let’s hope producers cast a guy who totally appreciates her!
Krystal Nielson
Every season of Bachelor in Paradise needs a villain, right?

Although it will be revealed during the Women Tell All that she called Arie a “needle d*ck” (and said some not-so-nice things about the girls), we’re pretty sure producers know Krystal is ratings gold.
Will she change her ways?
Chad (BIP season 3) didn’t, so we don’t expect her whispering will win her any points if she makes it to Paradise this summer.
Of course, there will be more than five girls from Arie’s season, but we’d be surprised if the girls listed above don’t show up.
SPOILER ALERT
Oh, and while we’re naming girls we think will be part of the Bachelor in Paradise Season 5 cast, what about Tia Booth?
Arie sends Tia home during the hometown dates.
When we found out, we immediately thought Tia would be a great Bachelorette, but that may not happen anymore, thanks to Arie.

Watch the Bachelor on Monday nights at 8 p.m. on ABC. (The Women Tell All airs Sunday, February 25 at 8 p.m.)
