After being gone for two years, this season of BiP ensured a hedonistic summer on the beach with TONS of sexy endeavors. And it has not disappointed! Ahh, it's good to have you back, BiP.

The season will wrap in a few weeks, but if you, my friend, want to know how it all ends before then—or if you're itching to know everything without actually having to watch the show (lol we get it)—you are in luck because we have allll the tea!

Reality Steve has been dropping nuggets of info about this season of Bachelor in Paradise left and right. That being said, let’s get into the spoilers!

Just in case this isn’t abundantly clear: This story contains massive spoilers for Bachelor in Paradise season 7—click away now if you don’t want this season spoiled for ya!

The contestants

There are lots of familiar faces—heartthrobs and villains alike—heading to Paradise, and you can find the list of Bachelor in Paradise cast members riiiiight here:

We know most of the couples

Starting with the juiciest and most important bits of info, obvi, the main couples according to Reality Steve are:

• Noah Erb and Abigail Heringer

• Tammy Ly and Thomas Jacobs

• Demi Burnett and Kenny Braasch

• Ivan Hall and Jessenia Cruz

• Joe Amabile and Serena Pitt

• Kenny Braasch and Mari Pepin

• Riley Christian and Maurissa Gunn

• Becca Kufrin and Thomas Jacobs

Oh, and Brendan Morais and Pieper James were dating before BiP???

A source told Us Weekly that Brendan and Pieper are indeed in a relationship and they met through “mutual friends” because “they hang out in the same Bachelor crowd.”

“Pieper and Brendan have been dating for a few weeks now,” the source explained. “Either he’ll fly to New York and hang with her, or she’ll fly to Boston to hang with him. She was most recently in Boston over Memorial Day weekend and they were even spotted out in public together.”

So…how does this factor into Paradise? Well, both Brendan and Pieper are on the show, but Brendan comes in first and couples up with Natasha Parker. Brendan tells Natasha several times that his relationship with Pieper is casual and that they've only hung out a few times. Interesting. Reality Steve says the dating reports came out *before* the show started filming, which means it’s unclear if Brendan and Pieper will continue their relationship once cameras are rolling (they do). In a spoiler story, Steve wrote, “What I can tell you is this: Brendan was original cast…Brendan has already given a rose to someone else that’s not Pieper.” It was Natasha.

When Pieper finally arrives, she gets a date card and *immediately* chooses Brendan to go on the date with her. On the date, she says she's excited they get to pick up where they left off. Reality Steve said, “It’s clear production purposely waited till Brendan gave his rose to someone else before deciding to bring Pieper in. But if they were already dating and this is preplanned, gonna be interesting to see if they pretend like they weren’t, or if they just go with it and let everyone know.” Update: They definitely didn't let everyone know. So you know it only got waaay messier.

Brendan and Pieper get called out by some Paradisians (or as Brendan called them, "Joe and his mob of disgruntled females") for being a couple before coming on the show and for manipulating Natasha. The conversation was a complete and utter dumpster fire, so Brendan and Pieper got voted off the island left together before the overnights. As they should, because the way they treated Natasha was out! of! pocket!

Don’t expect a happy Blake Horstmann and Becca Kufrin reunion

After Chris Harrison and Rachael Kirkconnell’s Bachelor controversy, a bunch of Bachelor Nation members were reportedly apprehensive about joining this Bachelor in Paradise season. According to an E! News source, production was “hoping to get Blake Horstmann, Tia Booth, and Becca Kufrin” on the show. Tia and Becca end up joining, but Blake doesn't…which means sorry, fans, but no Becca and Blake reunion this time around!

“Blake Horstmann is not on this season so any hopes for a Blake/Becca reunion aren’t happening,” Reality Steve wrote on Twitter. “Who Becca is with (at least as of last rose ceremony) probably isn’t gonna have people terribly happy. Just my opinion.”

Becca Kufrin dates Thomas Jacobs on the show

True story! Becca shows up to the beach later and dates Thomas during their time on the show. She gave her first rose to Aaron Clancy, who dated Tammy Ly until she dipped for Aaron's "mortal enemy," Thomas. Talk about a shake up!

Becca and Thomas basically stay together until the very end of the season before sadly breaking up. “(BiP SPOILER): If you thought Thomas got a lot of airtime this season, just wait till Paradise. Thomas is heavily involved with Becca Kufrin for the last half of BiP, but she eventually breaks up with him before the finale,” Reality Steve wrote on Twitter.

Joe Amabile and Kendall Long are back in Paradise

The catch? They *don’t* end up dating, which totally sucks for fans hoping for a romantic round two after their unfortunate breakup. “Joe & Kendall are both there but not rekindling. They have both given roses to other people,” Reality Steve confirmed.

Joe isn't interested in starting things back up with Kendall since that would mean ending his time dating Serena Pitt. It definitely was worth it though, since Joe and Serena leave the island engaged! There's even *strong* evidence that they are still together. Peep Abigail's comment on one of Serena's recent Instagram pics:

Kendall actually has a pretty hard time seeing Joe on the show dating Serena, despite her briefly being involved with Ivan Hall, and she sends herself home. Speaking of Ivan though…

Ivan Hall and Jessenia Cruz have quite a bit of drama

Reality Steve says, “Jessenia Cruz was involved with Ivan Hall. Then Jessenia left Ivan for Chris Conran when he arrived. Then Chris left Jessenia for Alana once she arrived” in a v disrespectful manner IMO.

But then things get messy. A group confronts Chris on the beach for his treatment of Jessenia—after his one-on-one date with Alana—because they "thought [he and Alana] were scheming because they hung out pre-show, and both eventually ended up leaving the same episode separately," wrote Reality Steve. Oof!

Karl Smith doesn’t make it very far

In a Twitter spoiler, Reality Steve said, “The men give out the roses at the first rose ceremony, so yes, Karl does make it through one rose ceremony. He gave his rose to one of Peter [Weber]’s women,” which lowkey indicates that Karl’s going home somewhat quickly, LOL. The woman is Deandra Kanu, who gives her rose to Ivan after Chasen and Karl put her in a ~pickle~.

There’s a love triangle on the show

Let’s be real—would it be BiP without some form of love triangle drama?? No, it would not! Steve spilled the tea after a few weeks and said that “the love triangle I referred to in a tweet a few weeks back was between Kenny, Mari, and Demi. Ultimately, we now know that Kenny chose Mari over Demi since Kenny and Mari are engaged. But I was told in the beginning he was going back and forth between them.” For a moment, the triangle actually becomes an entire ~rectangle~ after Kenny goes on a one-on-one date with Tia and things get steamy.

There are also a TON of eliminations

Here’s how it all goes down, according to Reality Steve:

About the final rose ceremony…

Reality Steve says there are three couples left in the game by the time the final rose ceremony rolls around:

• Joe Amabile and Serena Pitt

• Kenny Braasch and Mari Pepin

• Riley Christian and Maurissa Gunn

And out of these couples, ALL of them leave Paradise engaged!!

Those are all the spoilers we know right now about this season of Bachelor in Paradise! Keep your eyes on this story for any juicy new updates.
