Bachelor in Paradise Season 7, Episode 1: How to watch

Bachelor in Paradise Season 7 officially kicks off tonight, and I think it’s safe to say–we cannot contain our excitement. It’s been two long years without Bachelor Nation’s favorite series of the franchise, but now the wait is finally over.

As always, there’s a lot of drama and love embedded in the season. And just like seasons past, former contestants will return to try for another shot at love. This time around we’ve got a handful of guys from Katie Thurston, Clare Crawley, and Tayshia Adams’ season of The Bachelorette as well as some of the gals from Matt James’ season of The Bachelor. There are a handful of unexpected outliers joining Bachelor in Paradise Season 7 including Becca Kufrin, Demi Burnett, Joe Amabile, and Kendall Long.

It’s definitely going to get wild, and it’s a sure-fire guarantee that all of us will be sitting with a giant tub of popcorn to tune in. What will make this season a bit different than the past is that instead of Chris Harrison hosting there will be a series of guest hosts dropping. This includes David Spade, Lance Bass, Lil Jon, Tituss Burgess, and Wells Adams (who is serving as the Master of Ceremonies).

There is a lot to look forward to when Bachelor in Paradise Season 7 premieres tonight–and here’s just a tiny sneak peek of what’s to come.
