By Ruby Maxwell
The season premiere of Bachelor in Paradise is just two weeks away! Get ready for a full serving a drama with a side of romance.
It wouldn’t be Bachelor in Paradise without a villain, right? Never mind the hookups and almost unbelievable love stories. We’re totally ready for two nights of drama, starting with the August 7 premiere.
Ask and you shall receive — the upcoming season of Bachelor in Paradise is rumored to be a total sh*t show, with not one, but three villains bringing drama to the beachfront set in Mexico.

It isn’t hard to figure out who the villains will be this season. Details about the craziness that happened when Paradise was taped last month are already starting to emerge.
It sure doesn’t sound like a season filled with love stories, that’s for sure.
So, who are this season’s Paradise villains?
Time will tell if the rumors are true, but we totally think two guys from Becca’s season and a girl from Arie’s season will get the 2018 Paradise Villain award.
And hey, we’re hearing two of the villains will make a love connection. Well, maybe using the word “love” is a stretch considering taping took only 2-3 weeks, but whatever.
Chris Randone
Shocker, right? After acting like a total fool on The Bachelorette, there’s no doubt Chris will try the same (failed) tactics to find love in Paradise. Dude, if the girl rejects you, don’t track her down with a lame letter. In fact, don’t track her down at all. It didn’t work with Becca and it won’t work in Paradise.
Or, maybe it will. Maybe groveling for another chance after acting like a love-stalker will help him find everlasting love with one of Arie’s girls … who also has villain potential.
Krystal Nielson
We’re wondering if Krystal whispers her way through another season. While she wasn’t the worst villain of all time, she did stir up some serious drama on Arie’s season of The Bachelor. We fully expect her to make some waves in Paradise, but there’s word that she tries her best to redeem herself.
***Spoiler alert***
The problem is, spoilers point to her redeeming herself with Chris by her side. According to Reality Steve, Chris and Krystal couple-up in Paradise. However, Steve also notes that no one gets engaged (other than Ashley and Jared) on the finale, so we’ll see how long their relationship lasts in the real world.
Jordan Kimball
Villain? Eh … we’re not so sure. Let’s just call him a troublemaker. Jordan is so into himself, it’s hard to believe he’s going to get crowned the Biggest Paradise Villain of All Time. We know he gets into it with Colton during the Men Tell All, so maybe they’ll continue sparring in Paradise.
But, we can’t take anything Jordan says seriously. He duked it out with Chicken Guy David during the 2-on-1 date and now they are BFFs. So, who knows — it’s a TV show and producers love villains, so we’ll see how it plays out when the season gets underway.
Get ready to spend two nights a week watching our favorite summertime reality TV show –Watch the Bachelor in Paradise premiere on ABC at 8 p.m. ET on August 7.
