Bachelor Winter Games has ended, leaving many fans wanting more international Bachelor Nation cast members on their screens. That’s because the spinoff was better than even Bachelor in Paradise in that it was just as light-hearted and also infused something fresh into the franchise.

So will fans get what they want? Or will things go back to the way they were? We still have some time before Season 5 of Bachelor in Paradise, but things are already coming together.

Here are seven things to know about Season 5, including why an international cast is being considered for the show.

1. Bekah Martinez is confirmed for Bachelor in Paradise

Martinez’s time on The Bachelor was a rollercoaster. Part of that had to do with fans accusing her of not being serious about finding love, due to her young age. But this won’t be the end of her search for love on reality television because it’s already confirmed she’s going to paradise.

On Women Tell All, Chris Harrison had Martinez clarify why her mother declared her a missing person. He then had her call her mother and told her, “There’s a good chance she’s going to be missing for about two weeks this summer, because hopefully, she’ll be in Mexico on Bachelor in Paradise.”

This isn’t the first time going on the show has come up for Martinez. She previously told E! News, “I don’t know if that’s where I’m at right now if that’s what I’m ready for, but we’ll see! It’s actually kind of funny, it’s been three months since the show was filmed and this is the first time in my life where I’m really taking a pause on my dating life actually.”
