Bachelor In Paradise Australia - Season 2 - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Gosh forgot about Zoe. So many girls back at a similar time. She looks happy though.

She does doesn't she!  And cute as a button too

With so many people reappearing at once it makes me think they were perhaps in couples that opted not to go to the end, and we might have a second "wave" (Bill, Flo, Richie etc) returning mid-next week.  Might give us some further clues who got to the finale.

ETA: Jules also back to live posting today. His voice can be heard in the video so he's definitely back. Seems like everyone may have been given the go-ahead to resume normal activity. There's been a flurry of activity this weekend from the handful I follow.

They've finished filming per the official photographer for the show who posted on his IG stories he is done and no more in Fiji. Likely filmed wrapped yesterday or before that since he would have taken photos of the final couples who stayed till the end.

Makes sense if filming is over as the filming schedule matches last year's in length by ending by Dec 1. If the hotel is still booked it may not even be for filming but the crew and other things and possibly just as a safeguard booking. I don't see them filming longer than the set timeline. 

I suspect some of the contestants are just lying low on SM and will get back on soon. Hopefully we see which, if any, couples there are post-filming 

Bill's Back

I also found Zoe's latest story rather interesting.

Ohhh, gonna be watching you Zoe! Maybe a secret message to whoever her BIP buddy ends up being? Or maybe just watching Love Actually because Christmas? 

Yeah that's what I thought too @Dirty Street Pie.  Suspect choice of screen grab IMO - "to me you are perfect"  Maybe Zoe's the one who snagged Richie?

Meanwhile, Flo's back active again so I think that's all the likely Main Players accounted for now except Richie, but he doesn't seem to post very often in general.

@Bobette Zoe would also be acceptable to me as a partner for Richie. She is following him on Insta as well, but it could be an old follow, as she is following him, and the top guys from Georgias season, but no one I can see from Sophie or Ali's seasons.

I'll also allow it.    I could actually see them being a pretty good match - moreso than Richie and Shannon IMO.  Zoe was such a random choice I can't help but think she was hand picked/requested by someone so maybe Richie did some background research.  I can't see who else she would have been with if she lasted till the end.  

I'm still super stuck on Shannon and Jules - can't shake the feeling something happened there even though he seemed to be back before her and sounded a bit broken hearted.  Can't think who else Shannon could have been with. Maybe she was like Leah from last year, lasted a long time but not with anyone in particular?

I wish the media would stop dicking around and give us at least one actual couple rather than boring Alex pics.

OTT Alex and Dog-park Bill. Of course they’re tonguing in public at the dog park. My eyes are rolling so hard they’ve done a 360.

Well isn't that interesting.  I wonder if Flo gets ditched again or if she says thanks but no thanks.  Foolish move IMO Bill but whatsevs.  Also great to see Alex rushing home to be with her child after so long away from him.  Oh, sorry, forgot who I was talking about.

So I guess both Richie and Alex make it to the end then?  Move evidence IMO this whole "awkwardness/tension/revenge" BS is going to be a major storyline even though IMO Richie is way more mature than Alex so anything like that would only be coming from her.

Oh and whatever happened to her saying she would "storm out" if Richie showed up?  

Quoting the above article for future reference:

Alex Nation and Bill Goldsmith are caught kissing in a Melbourne park less than 24 hours after filming the season finale

By Jo Scrimshire For Daily Mail Australia

Published: 09:30 AEDT, 4 December 2018

The first new couple from 2019's season of Bachelor in Paradise has been revealed - and fans definitely didn't see this one coming.

Daily Mail Australia has obtained photos of Alex Nation and Bill Goldsmith kissing in a Melbourne park on Monday - less than 24 hours after they returned from Fiji.

Sources claim they 'declared their love' for each other in the season finale - but viewers will have to wait almost five months to watch the episode air on TV.

Finale filmed 02/12 then I guess?  And looks like it will air April 2019.

Last year BIP aired March 25 and the finale was April 30 so it would be 5 months before seeing the final couples in the finale episode of the show airs their finale in April. Long time for couples to stay together until it airsWill have to sleuth which couples may be over by then and which may pretend again when the season airs (I can see a lot of showmances happening  ) . 

ETA: I think finale was filmed Dec 1 or sooner and couples stayed a night together post-finale filming. No way the official photographer would have left before the finale and he flew out of Fiji early Dec 1. DM isn’t usually correct about finale dates but usually are close so I could see DM going by flight pics from BTS pics and concluding finale was before then (DM didn’t have airport pics for Ali’s season which is why they were off by weeks   )

Rachael is back on insta too and seems extremely happy as well. So we know the following make it to the end:

Zoe
Rachael
Alex
Shannon
Cass
Flo?

Jules
Bill
Richie
Nathan

Do we know anyone else? Trying to compile a list to see if we can get hints about who is with who...
