However the course of the game instantly changed when the women were introduced to five new men. Referring to the new arrivals, one fan tweeted:

Season 8 of the hit dating series has been extremely popular amongst viewers. Loyal fans have been following the contestants' journeys for the past couple of weeks and the recent twist has changed the course of the many strong and recent relationships formed on the show.

Who are the new men on Bachelor in Paradise Season 8?

On tonight's episode of Bachelor in Paradise, an emotional set of women were sent to a new location as the men on the beach built connections with new women. With the new arrivals, many of the existing men were open to exploring more options as they felt that their connection with their original partners wasn't as strong as they thought it would be,

The new women who graced the beach were known stars from the franchise.

Rodney instantly hit it off with Eliza and the duo soon formed a romantic connection. Jacob took the opportunity to get to know Kate, leading to another potential connection between the two. Logan was also open to getting to know Sara and building a relationship with her.

Meanwhile, the original Bachelor in Paradise women were seen breaking down at the prospect of their partners making a connection with the newcomers. As host Jesse Palmer approached them, they were seen blaming the format of the show for their mental state. However, Palmer soon gave them reason to forget their complaints.
