More Bachelor In Paradise news! Sources claim Megan Marx, Cameron Cranley and Jake Ellis could join rumoured cast for second shot at love

Rumours of a potential Australian Bachelor In Paradise spin-off full of viewer's favourite Bachelor and Bachelorette rejects surfaced this week.

And now it appears more of the reality stars from the past seven seasons have been contacted to be involved.

Inside sources have revealed exclusively to Daily Mail Australia that Megan Marx, Cameron Cranley and Jake Ellis could get a second chance at love.

Bachelor In Paradise is a US reality dating show that features past contestants from both The Bachelor and The Bachelorette in hopes of sparking new love connections.

Reports earlier this week in New Idea claimed last year's Bachelor runner-up Nikki Gogan and former villain Keira Maguire had been cast, as well as former Bachelorette winner Sasha Mielczarek.

Daily Mail Australia's source confirmed Nikki had been contacted, but was not able to confirm her intended involvement.

Entering Paradise? Multiple sources have offered up Michael Turnbull (Sam Frost's Bachelorette season reject) as a contestant for the new show

Meanwhile, multiple sources have offered up Michael Turnbull (Sam Frost's Bachelorette season reject) and Georgia Love's former contestants Cameron Cranley and Jake Ellis as those contacted by the producers.

Another lady set to potentially sizzle on the remote island series is former Bachelor star Megan Marx, who left the series and formed a lesbian relationship with former rival Tiffany Scanlon.

Megan and Tiffany broke up in March, with Megan strongly denying Tiffany's allegations she 'hooked up with one of her male ex-boyfriends' last month.

The inside sources also claim David Witko was approached, but turned down the offer. He is currently flaunting his relationship online with recent Bachelor alumni Leah Costa.

New Idea have suggested Leah Costa, Jen Hawke and Elora Murger from The Bachelor's most recent season with Matty J could be set for an early return to TV.

However, multiple sources have confirmed, to their knowledge, that no newer contestants from Matty J or Sophie Monk's series will be extended an invite.

Unlucky in love Nikki, 31, was reportedly seen filming a promotional campaign for the show in Sydney recently, however the show will likely be filmed in picturesque Fiji.

'They were filming on Palm Beach, the same place [Nikki] was taken by helicopter to have a beach date with Richie Strahan,' a source told New Idea on Monday.

'Producers are busy negotiating fees for the cast, as many of them believe they are worth a lot more than has been budgeted.'

Other potential stars include season three breakout star Zilda Williams and season one's Sarah-Mae Louise Amey.

'If Sarah-Mae and Sasha both agree to go on the show, that will create an interesting dynamic and possible sparks given the fallout between Sasha and [ex] Sam Frost, who remains good friends with Sarah-Mae,' the insider speculated.

The report went on to claim Bachelor star Osher Gunsberg will host the show.

However, Channel Ten told Daily Mail Australia on Monday that the New Idea report is completely false.

'This is not true,' a spokesperson said.

Did Ten just CONFIRM Bachelor In Paradise? Twitter account for the rumoured TV series surfaces... after claims Elora Murger and Zilda Williams were approached to star in the spin-off

For weeks, rumours have been circling that US reality television spin-off Bachelor In Paradise is coming to Australia.

And now it appears Network Ten has confirmed a local version is in production after a social media account for the show surfaced.

The page @BachParadiseAU hit Twitter earlier this week, and Daily Mail Australia understands it was set up by a social media manager for Ten.

According to previous reports, Bachelor In Paradise may include last year's Bachelor runner-up Nikki Gogan and former 'villain' Keira Maguire.

Other potential stars include season three breakout star Zilda Williams, Sarah-Mae Amey, Elora Murger, Leah Costa and Michael Turnbull.

'They were filming on Palm Beach, the same place (Nikki) was taken by helicopter to have a beach date with Richie Strahan,' a source previously told New Idea.

'If Sarah-Mae and Sasha both agree to go on the show, that will create an interesting dynamic and possible sparks given the fallout between Sasha and (ex-girlfriend) Sam Frost, who remains good friends with Sarah-Mae,' the insider added.

The magazine's report went on to claim that Bachelor host Osher Günsberg will also be the presenter of Bachelor In Paradise.

At the time, a Network Ten spokesperson denied New Idea's claims to Daily Mail Australia, saying the article was 'not true'.
