Bachelor In Paradise Australia - Season 2 - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Davey's out.  Guess Flo got her closure/didn't pursue anything there then.    Who else could we see Flo going for?

ETA: DM have just officially released the names of all contestants thus far.  No one we didn't already know about.

In the thumbnail for the story they have Shannon and Jules' pics spliced together.  



I HOPE THAT MEANS WHAT I THINK IT MEANS.

YES YES to Shannon and Jules, if that actually happens they would probably be my favourite bachelor franchise couple, hands down!

Also not surprised at Davey being out, I didn’t think Florence and Davey would couple up because if they really did like each other something would’ve happened in the last year!

Also, i know Richie usually goes for blondes but I agree @Bobette I can actually see Richie and Brooke happening and I’d be HERE for it tbh

Also I think Flo and Bill is going to happen IMO

I totally agree.  My favourite couple of the franchise so far was Courtney from Georgia's season and Lily from Bach NZ who got together on Winter Games (not sure if you watched that - it was pretty good!) but they split up (no surprise - Lily's a handful ) so I need a replacement and Jules and Shannon will do just nicely.

I'm hoping DM have already seen BTS pap pics of them together and that's why they're using them for the thumbnail.  

I could actually see them going right to the end and being the poster couple for the 2019 season.

I could see this - Flo will go for one of the new boys for sure IMO.

Looking at this list there's only 5 guys and 8 girls. Interesting. I wonder if Alex is playing on the boy's team, so to speak.

Wasn’t there an international boy pictured? If there’s one, I’d say there would be more, and that would bump the numbers up to closer to equal

They left out Connor from the US franchise and Paddy who we’ve seen in Diimex pictures so that evens things out

An excellent point - DM presumably haven't cottoned on to that yet.  

Not sure if he would have been there from the start though since the internationals came in quite late last season and having them arrive later gives more "shock value".  

And yes thanks @fangirlsamuri for spotting they left Paddy off the list.  No pap pics from him at the airport but if he was on from the beginning that does round it out.

I'm wondering though if Paddy arrives in episode 1 but Connor not till later, meaning they'd start with 6 boys and 8 girls.  Last season it was 8 boys and 6 girls.

New pics of Cat with Bill and Richie - but she's been pictured back in AU so presumably neither panned out.  

ETA: Just realised DM left Cat off their list as well as Connor and Paddy, that screws the numbers up again.

O/T Providing some info on why Todd and Taite were in Fiji. I've been told (thank you to the source) that they both were there to have a holiday and be prepped for media  and TEN used it as a way to mislead unbeknownst to the guys at the time. The handlers were in Fiji at the time so they went there since all production were there. Todd arrived 1 day earlier and with his handler and Taite was with Ali on SHV before and then flew there. The prep for media ended up being not for the morning of but afterwards and it was all a guise to mislead the ending. So a ruse by TEN who had pushed for an ending of Ali being single and rejected like they pushed in their comment on their FB. Also why the final two did no media before the finale to make it look like the ending was no one. So nothing to do with BIP.

Because I'm only interested in everything and anything Richie HAHA. I need to see my boy fall in love

such good times! I'm excited to see Richie! I don't know who he could be with and don't want Alisha to get near him! He deserves better than that maybe Shannon or someone else? Just excited to see him again either way!

Apologies for back to back posts. I think Brooke is out. She's been liking pics on IG and active on her IG. So she may be back!
