After an extended hiatus, Bachelor in Paradise is finally returning for its seventh season of tropical romance.

No matter where you are in the world, ABC promises this season to be unforgettable, especially since David Spade is the new celebrity host. For those unfamiliar with the reality series, it mashes up The Bachelor and The Bachelorette by bringing back fan-favorites and controversial contestants from different seasons. 

Fans who love to watch Love Island can expect just as much drama—if not more—unfold as the singles interact with one another over the course of three weeks. The show premiered August 16 and will take place at the Playa Escondida resort in Mexico again. Now, it’s time to make our predictions on which couples we think will make it out of paradise.
