Bachelor Nation, rejoice! We have the list of contestants joining Bachelor in Paradise [1] this season. While there are a few contestants from JoJo Fletcher's current season [2] joining the lineup, there are also some franchise favorites hoping for another shot at love (we're looking at you Nick Viall).
