Brooke Blurton and Cassandra Wood confirmed for next season of 'Bachelor In Paradise Australia'

Brooke Blurton and Cassandra Wood are officially joining next season of Bachelor in Paradise Australia -- the news was confirmed this week.

The fan favourites both appeared on the most recent season of The Bachelor Australia, where former rugby star Nick CumminsNick Cummins -- oof, it still stings -- in the finale.

Cass, an accounting professional, was an underdog to win, as she had a "fling" with 31-year-old Nick before the show began, a storyline that played throughout the season.

Meanwhile, Indigenous youth worker Brooke decided to leave the show during the Rose Ceremony before Nick made his pick for the final two contestants (that ended up being Brittany Hockley and Sophie Tieman).

Bachelor in Paradise is, of course, a second chance at love for hopefuls from both The Bachelorette and The Bachelor. It's where, last season, Jarrod Woodgate hooked up with Keira Maguire (and may actually still be together), and where Sam Cochrane proposed to Tara Pavlovic, although sadly, the couple has since split.

And even the current Bachelorette Ali Oetjen made an appearance last season! Proof that a stint on the show can lead to much ~bigger and better~ things...
