Pardise‘s Golden Era awaits!

A week after Bachelor in Paradise announced 16 of the Bachelor and Bachelorette alums who are hitting the sand in search of love in the spin-off’s upcoming Season 10, members of Bachelor Nation now know which Golden contestants will be joining them.

Back in March, franchise host Jesse Palmer announced that several Golden Bachelor and Golden Bachelorette alum would be joining the cast. “This is really happening,” Palmer said of the major twist. “For the first time ever, Golden men and women will be hitting the beaches of Paradise alongside all of your Bachelor and Bachelorette favorites from seasons past. I don’t know if I ever been more excited for anything ever.”

Several of Gerry Turner and Joan Vassos exes — including Susan Noles and fan-favorite dad of Kelsey Anderson, Mark, who’s dating One Tree Hill star Barbara Alyn Woods — have happily found relationships outside of the franchise, so we won’t see them looking for love on the beach.

So which Golden Guys and Golden Gals are headed to Paradise with host Jesse Palmer, head of Paradise Relations Hannah Brown, bartender Wells Adams and the already announced cast?Read on to learn about the Golden members of Bachelor in Paradise Season 10’s cast.

1. From the moment April walked out of the limo carrying a basket of eggs and told Gerry Turner that since she grew up on a chicken farmher eggs were still very fresh, it was clear she had iconic sass. Her witty commentary — from asking “how Gerry likes his wiener” when grilling hot dogs, to her original talent show jokes — kept Golden Bachelor fans laughing each episode. She was spicy, sexy, hilarious, and unafraid to be vulnerable on Gerry’s season, so we have no doubt she’ll liven up the beach and hopefully find love along the way.

2. CK, a portfolio manager from Rancho Palos Verdes, California, is headed to Costa Rica as well. His Golden Bachelorette bio said he’s “traveled the world looking for love and is open to living anywhere; he’s just waiting for that right connection.” So here’s hoping he finds it on Paradise.

3. Since the moment Gary hopped out of the limo and grabbed Joan Vassos’ hands to dance in the driveway, we knew this absolute catch had a sparkling personality. “You’re very shy, aren’t you?” Joan asked shortly after Gary made his limo exit. “I’m that guy, Joan,” he replied. And yes, he is. The father of two also happens to be the godson of the legendary Tina Turner, so we have a feeling he can dance his way into someone’s heart on this beach when he joins later on in the season.

4. Talk about a fan-favorite Golden Guy! Though the caterer from Chicago, Illinois, only lasted two episodes on The Golden Bachelorette, he stole the hearts on Night 1 when he hopped out of the limo wearing a pink suit jacket and belting Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” and later whipped up a First Date feast for Joan. “He has such a gigantic personality and he just says whatever is on his mind. He was a mansion favorite. He was a me favorite,” Vassos told Decider during a Zoom interview. So here’s hoping Jack finds a way to cook, sing, and fall in love on the beach.

5. Even though her bestie and fellow podcast host Susan Noles isn’t hitting the beach, Kathy Swarts signed on to make waves in Season 10. The retired education consultant consistently delivered The Golden Bachelor‘s greatest zingers. And I, for one, am still thinking about her shining Episode 4 moment, when she saw our future Bachelor lead and said, “Oh my god! Joey’s here! Frankly, I don’t know what Charity was thinking. Joey could be my son, and I’m here for Gerry — but, you know, you always have to have a Plan B.” Looks like Plan B was actually Paradise, so fingers crossed that Kathy finds romance.

6. Joan Vassos’ first impression rose recipient Keith Gordon is hitting the beach for another shot at finding his forever person, and per the Paradise teaser, the Girl Dad from San Jose, California is ready to “look in the mirror and say, ‘I’m the prize.'”

7. Kim Buike tried (and failed) to woo Joan Vassos and fellow Golden Bachelorette contestants with an original song about life as a Bachelor Mansion man looking for love, but perhaps the retired Navy captain from Seattle, Washington, will have better luck singing and sailing off into the sunset with someone on Paradise.

8. Golden Bachelor runner-up Leslie Fhima is putting herself out there again after a “devastating” breakup from Gerry Turner. The fitness instructor from Minneapolis, Minnesota, previously revealed that she was so confident it was going to be her and Turner at the end of The Golden Bachelor that she picked out a dress and wrote her vows — so you know she’s heading to Paradise for the right reasons.

9. One of The Golden Bachelor‘s finest, Natascha Hardee, is gracing Paradise with her presence, and in addition to bringing the energy, she’s bringing her signature “charrings” (chair earrings) with hwe. Natascha may have been eliminated in The Golden Bachelor Episode 2, but the warm, hilarious aging coach from New York City made it clear she has so much light and love to spread. So we can’t wait to see what Paradise has in store for her (and vice versa).

10. Looking for a man in finance? Paradise invited a financial adviser from Irvine, California, to the beach. We already know that RJ loves Die Hard, traveling, and reading spy novels. But will he fall in love with any of his fellow Paradise Season 10 contestants. Here’s hoping RJ gets his happy ending!

Bachelor in Paradise Season 10 premieres July 7 at 8:00 p.m. on ABC with next-day streaming on Hulu.
