It is finally time for the reunion everyone has been waiting for when the original women return to the beach on “Bachelor in Paradise.”

Here is what you need to know:


The Original Women Return to the Beach


Split Week is over!

“It’s finally time to go back to the beach!” according to the episode description. “Paradise’s original couples reunite on the sand, where each learns if their relationship survived the week apart.”

Some couples will remain unscathed, such as Brandon Jones and Serene Russell and Aaron Clancy and Genevieve Parisi. Michael Allio and Danielle Maltby were excluded from the twist.

In a promo, host Jesse Palmer warns the women ahead of their return, “You are going back to a very different beach.”

Following in the women’s stead are their resort companions. As ABC teased, “Later that same night, the new guys make their grand, rocky entrance to the beach, stirring up more drama. Which couples are safe and who will pack their bags? All will be revealed.”

The last episode saw Palmer send Olu Onajide and Rick Leach packing after not forming a connection with anyone.


Who Will Victoria Fuller Choose?


Victoria Fuller is at the center of a love triangle.

She was going strong with Johnny DePhillipo ahead of Split Week and the two agreed to not pursue any other relationships. But after learning of Lace Morris’ exit, Fuller went on a date with Alex Bordyukov.

It does not seem like DePhillipo is going to take the news well. In the episode preview, he is seen telling Fuller, “All right, it’s over. Do your thing because you obviously want to explore.”

In a confessional, he added, “There really is no future for us.”

The couple is expected to weather the storm, with Reality Steve revealing Fuller and DePhillipo leave the season engaged. As for Bordyukov, viewers will have to wait for his fate at the next rose ceremony.


Brittany Galvin & Andrew Spencer Go Their Separate Ways


Brittany Galvin and Andrew Spencer will each leave Split Week in a relationship, just not with each other. The duo was one of the newer couples when the original women were sent packing, and in their time apart, they each moved forward with other members of Bachelor Nation.

Spencer has paired up with Jessenia Cruz, while Galvin is exploring her connection with Tyler Norris, according to Reality Steve.

Norris “is an amazing person and we have so much in common,” Galvin explained in the last episode. “But at the same time, I just developed this relationship with Andrew. I don’t want to hurt anyone in this process, but, I think my head’s telling me go for Tyler. My heart’s telling me go for Tyler.”


Shanae Ankney Confronts Kate Gallivan


Shanae Ankney has found herself at the center of many love triangles, squares and pentagons throughout the season. Before packing her bags for a resort, she was coupled up with Logan Palmer.

As viewers saw, both Ankney and Palmer explored other relationships during their week of separation. Ankney was interested in Tyler Norris, though he ended up hitting it off with Brittany Galvin. Meanwhile, Palmer was mingling with Sarah Hamrick before redirecting his focus to Kate Gallivan.

The episode promo teased an explosive reunion, with Ankney declaring in a confessional, “The Logan I met before I left was way different than when I came back.”

And it seems the tension is not contained to just the former couple. The preview hints at a confrontation on the beach between Ankney and Gallivan. As someone says in the clip, “Get ready for Pompeii.”


Jill Chin Runs Away Crying


Jill Chin and Jacob Rapini’s reunion will end in tears. As viewers last saw, Rapini used Split Week as an opportunity to pursue Kate Gallivan only for her to instead choose Logan Palmer.

So, what happens when he once again comes face-to-face with Chin?

“To be honest, I kissed her,” he admits to Chin in a promo. He added, “You know how I feel about you.”

But as the clip shows, she runs away in tears. According to Reality Steve, their relationship ends. As he wrote, “Jacob left Jill for Kate.” But since Gallivan ended up with Palmer, Rapini too is expected to leave.


Sarah Hamrick Leaves Paradise


Sarah Hamrick was among the five new women who arrived during the Split Week twist. While she initially sparked a connection with Logan Palmer, he decided to instead pursue Kate Gallivan.

While a fellow beachgoer referred to her as “pissed,” it is actually a death in the family that causes her to leave Mexico.

Reality Steve wrote that she “had to leave the beach because her grandmother died. I believe this was before rose ceremony #3 happened.”


Justin Glaze Returns


The beachgoers will soon see a familiar face – Justin Glaze. Earlier in the season, the runner-up on Katie Thurston’s season explored his connection with Genevieve Parisi and Victoria Fuller. But, he was sent home at the second rose ceremony.

“Justin was eliminated at rose ceremony #2, but he was brought back on after [Split Week] happened and everyone was back on the beach,” according to Reality Steve. “I guess he was interested in Eliza. Not sure why he got to return.”

His return is short-lived, with Reality Steve reporting he is sent home at the next rose ceremony.


Who Else Is Coming to Paradise?


The beach is still open, with at least six more Bachelor Nation stars expected to hit the beach, according to Reality Steve.

The three men expected to arrive in Mexico are:

  • Hayden Markowitz, Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia’s season of “The Bachelorette”
  • Twins Joey and Justin Young, Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia’s season of “The Bachelorette”

The three women expected to arrive in Mexico are:

  • Mara Agreat, Clayton Echard’s season of “The Bachelor”
  • Ency Abedin, Clayton Echard’s season of “The Bachelor”
  • Lyndsey Windham, Clayton Echard’s season of “The Bachelor”
