‘I'm Your Girl.' Hannah Brown's Bachelor In Paradise Role Has Been Revealed, And I'm Officially Excited For Season 10

When Bachelor in Paradise returns to the 2025 TV schedule for its 10th season, fans will notice quite a few big changes. For one, production has packed Salley Carson's suitcase and moved out of Sayulita, Mexico, and when the Bachelor Nation singles reach their new home in Costa Rica, they'll be greeted by a familiar face. Hannah Brown has signed on in a surprising new role that has me really excited for the spinoff.
Jesse Palmer is still expected to appear as the Bachelor in Paradise Season 10 host, with Wells Adams presumably taking his usual spot behind the bar. This time, though, they'll be joined by Hannah Brown, who will reportedly be stationed in the all-new Champagne Lounge. The former Bachelorette opened up about what exactly she'll be doing (other than pouring the bubbly), telling US Weekly:
I think of myself as Paradise Relations. I am there to make sure that whatever people need, whatever the experience that they're supposed to have, I'm going to be there. People need help setting up a magical moment with the person that they're falling in love with? I'm your girl. If you need some advice on how to express your interest in someone, come to me.
Hannah Brown is one of the most famous Bachelor alums of all time, and I'm thrilled that we're going to get more of her on our screens. The fact that this is happening in a new Champagne Lounge speaks to just one of what I expect to be several big changes to the format, with Scott Teti joining as the new showrunner.
It was confirmed at Grant Ellis' Bachelor finale that Golden contestants will be joining the new Bachelor in Paradise season, so I'm wondering if maybe Hannah Brown's lounge is a quieter, shadier (maybe even — dare I say it — air-conditioned?!) spot for the more senior members of the cast.
So many details have yet to be revealed, but I'll be happy to have Hannah Brown in whatever capacity. It sounds like she's equally excited to return to Bachelor in Paradise, where she's made cameo appearances and hosted dates in past seasons. She continued:
It's so awesome to be back, but just in a new role. I'm really honored and super excited to, hopefully, be a really helpful addition that these contestants can really lean on, and feel safe to be heard and also be able to feel like, 'OK, she's going to tell me like it is.'
It's exactly that honesty mixed with compassion that has Jesse Palmer thinking Hannah Brown's going to fit in so well on Season 10. He said in his own US Weekly interview:
She's never afraid to tell it how it is, there's never a boring day around Hannah Brown. Beyond Wells, who is already amazing, now you have another perspective, another personality.
The host also hyped the new location, saying Costa Rica brings a whole new feel to Bachelor in Paradise Season 10.
I think Costa Rica as a backdrop is exciting. Not only do you have the beach, now you have the jungle. It's sexy, it's romantic, it's mysterious, it's dangerous. … It's going to be an incredible party.
Bachelor in Paradise hit new lows in Season 9 with major plots including a 'poop baby' (who thought constipated contestants would make for good TV?) and all of the couples breaking up pretty much as soon as they were contractually allowed to. Now with a fresh crew behind the scenes, the new locale, Golden contestants to mix it up and the great Hannah Brown coming on board, I could not be more excited to see what Season 10 brings.
No premiere date has been announced yet, but Jesse Palmer said to expect it to air this summer on ABC and streaming the next day with a Hulu subscription.

Dakota Johnson Just Styled the Effortless Jacket Trend All New Yorkers Are Wearing
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Having only just frosted her Ferragamo little black dress with a $25,500 Roberto Coin ring, Dakota Johnson was spotted in Manhattan on Friday, May 30 wearing a burgeoning jacket trend with more than $130,000-worth of jewelry. As usual, the Madame Web star's style was both laidback and featured a plethora of loud luxury details. The star of The Materialists opted for the Khaite Saraphina Jacket in toffee suede, taken from the designer's fall 2025 collection. The effortless jacket feeds into a wider trend, which has been a big hit with New Yorkers, and is the perfect transitional outerwear, easily taking the wearer from spring to summer. Marie Claire's senior fashion news editor, Halie LeSavage, notes that jackets just like Johnson's have been featured in recent collections from a multitude of designers. The jacket also wouldn't be out of place in the boho-chic trend resurgence; Daisy Edgar-Jones was recently spotted wearing a very similar brown suede jacket. Underneath the sleek outerwear, Johnson wore a sheer black Commando Classic Control Bodysuit, which retails for $90, and a pair of faded denim jeans. View Deal View Deal View Deal For footwear, Johnson chose the Khaite Colt Wedge in Black Glazed Leather, taken from the brand's pre-fall 2025 collection. The actress—who is styled by Kate Young—accessorized the outfit with Ophelia Eve's Emerald Victorian Slider Necklace, retailing for $10,430, and a Sophie Bille Brahe Collier De Amis Necklace worth $123,858, via @dakotajohnsonscloset. A pair of $505 Gucci Panthos Metal Oval Sunglasses completed the Persuasion star's outfit. View Deal View Deal View Deal Following her glitzy appearance on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet, Johnson has proven, once again, just how easily she can move between high-end outfits and everyday fashion.

After Top Gun: Maverick's Success, Why Did The Team Make F1 With Brad Pitt Instead Of Tom Cruise?
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Tom Cruise and director Joseph Kosinski came together to make Top Gun: Maverick and in the process made one of the biggest movies in recent years. It wasn't the first film the pair had made together, and Cruise likes to work with certain directors again and again. But Kosinski's follow-up to Maverick, the racing drama F1, stars Brad Pitt instead of Cruise. But this is probably a good thing, according to the filmmakers. The Mission: Impossible star is no stranger to racing movies, having made the hit Days of Thunder. One can imagine Cruise would have been right at home behind the wheel of a Formula One car, doing all the driving himself. However, Joseph Kosinski admits that, as capable as Tom is, he might have actually pushed things too far. The director recently told GQ… Tom always pushes it to the limit, but at the same time is super capable and very skilled. They both have the natural talent for driving. But yeah, I could see Tom maybe scaring us a little bit more. It's certainly true that Tom Cruise doesn't like to be told 'No.' The man has fired insurance companies who wouldn't let him perform certain stunts in movies, so it's difficult to imagine that he would be ok with drawing a line on his driving in a movie and letting somebody else do any of it. Brad Pitt still does a great deal of the actual driving that we will see when F1 hits theaters later this summer. But it seems he doesn't do all of it, which is why the filmmakers seem to be glad they're not working with Cruise on this one. F1's action-vehicle supervisor, Graham Kelly, who has worked with Tom Cruise before, indicates that Pitt knows when to draw a line, while Cruise may not. He explained… We'd have had a crash. Tom pushes it to the limit. I mean really to the limit. That terrifies me. I mean, I've done loads of Mission: Impossibles with Tom and it's the most stressful experience for someone like me building cars for him, doing stunts with him. Whereas Brad listens and he knows his abilities, and I think he'd be the first to say, 'Yeah, I'm not going to do that.' This may be the first time I've seen filmmakers indicate that Cruise's desire to do 'everything' on screen might not always be for the best. Still, the A-lister has indicated there are plans to make a sequel to Days of Thunder down the road, so the actor who insists on doing it all will likely get his chance to do all the high-speed driving he wants. And he and Joseph Kosinski may still find themselves together again on the almost inevitable Top Gun 3.
