The resident bartender of The Bachelor franchise’s summer spinoff series will return for season seven in an expanded role, The Hollywood Reporter has exclusively learned.
Wells rounds out the roster of guest hosts who were cast to fill the vacant role left by Chris Harrison, who parted ways with the franchise after 19 years as host.
The summer spinoff, which films at a resort in Sayulita, Mexico, is currently in production.
Adams, who made his debut on season 12 of The Bachelorette with JoJo Fletcher, has served as the Bachelor in Paradise bartender for the previous three seasons after being a cast member on season three.
Adams has been a consistent anchor for the summer spinoff show and will be the most familiar face for Bachelor Nation when the dating series returns without Harrison.
The news of Paradise‘s 2021 return, while met with excitement from viewers, was also met with speculation over who would host, as Harrison’s future at that time was up in the air with the franchise.
