As Wells Adams said: "It's getting hot, hot, hot!" Bachelor in Paradise 2021 is about to make its tropical return to TVs everywhere, and fans are anxious to see what romantic adventures (and misadventures) unfold on the beach.
Hopefully, no one will encounter a riff quite like The Bachelorette's now-iconic Greg and Katie fight, but let's be real—we can't make any promises.

Who is the host for Bachelor in Paradise 2021?
Fans' mouths dropped when they came across headlines like "Chris Harrison leaves Bachelor franchise." After a 19-year tenure, the mainstay host has exited the show due to a 2021 controversy. In his place, BiP will have several guest hosts, including David Spade, Tituss Burgess, Lance Bass, and, perhaps most interestingly, Lil Jon.
