Wells Adams Returning to 'Bachelor in Paradise' in Expanded Role for Season 7
Pouring drinks and presiding over Rose Ceremonies!
It was announced on Friday that Wells Adams will be returning to “Bachelor in Paradise” in an expanded role for the series’ upcoming seventh season. The franchise star — a strong and consistent anchor for the summer spin-off show — will be reprising his duties as bartender and will also serve as the master of all Rose Ceremonies.
Additionally, Wells will host one of the later episodes in the season, rounding out the previously announced slate of celebrity co-hosts.
Fans first got to know Wells on JoJo Fletcher’s Season 12 of “The Bachelorette” in 2016. Later that year, he appeared on Season 3 of “Paradise” as a cast member before taking over the bar, starting with Season 4 in 2017.
Wells has since found love with actress Sarah Hyland, an avowed “Bachelor” fan who became interested in the charismatic TV personality after watching him on the franchise. The pair got engaged in 2019.
Joining Wells in a rotating lineup of co-hosts for “Paradise” Season 7 are comedian David Spade, rapper Lil Jon, former *NSYNC member Lance Bass, and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” actor Tituss Burgess.
“Bachelor in Paradise” Season 7 premieres Monday, August 16, on ABC.
