Official fall premiere dates and casting for the three fan-favorite series will be announced at a later date.

In the meantime, The Bachelorette's 20th season starring Charity Lawson is set to debut on Monday, June 26 at 9PM ET/PT on ABC.

Many The Bachelor and The Bachelorette alums have been teasing in recent months whether they'd be interested in appearing on Bachelor in Paradise, which will presumably film this summer in Mexico.

The Bachelor 26 star Clayton Echard, who split from Susie Evans in September 2022, said on the May 4 episode of the "Click Bait with Bachelor Nation" podcast that he could "yeah, maybe" see himself looking for love in Paradise.

"It just depends on who would be going, because I'd have to see and do my own research, like, 'Is there anyone here I would actually have interest in going for?'" Clayton reasoned.

"Otherwise, if I didn't have any interest, what am I doing? I'm just going for the wrong reasons, and we all know how that shakes out."

Clayton, feeling "a little dangerous," elaborated, "I am talking to [someone], but we're not dating or anything yet. So we'll see where that heads, but you know what? From all the things I can see on social media and from what I saw on TV, I think [Jess Girod] was pretty cute."

"She's a pretty cute girl," he confessed to Joe Amabile. "There you go. If you want the click bait, she's somebody who I'm like, 'Hey, there could be some interest there.'"

Bachelor in Paradise 8 alum Johnny DePhillipo told BachelorNation.com in April, "Hell yeah, I would go back to Paradise. I know first-hand that it works. I would love to go back. If they want me next year, I'll be there!"

Johnny fell in love with Victoria Fuller in Paradise last year and they got engaged. However, the couple split and Victoria is now in a serious relationship with The Bachelorette 17 alum Greg Grippo.

The Bachelor 27 bachelorette Mercedes Northup expressed on "Click Bait" in February how she'd "for sure" be interested in a possible Bachelor in Paradise stint and she'd "low-key thrive" in that atmosphere.

Susie, on the other hand, said she's unlikely to go on the show due to her busy career as a wedding videographer.

And The Bachelor 27 bachelorettes Ariel Frenkel and Gabi Elnicki also shared how they're unsure of whether Bachelor in Paradise is for them after they both had their hearts broken by Zach Shallcross.

Ariel said on "The Viall Files" podcast, however, she'd remain "open-minded" about going on Paradise, and Gabi revealed on "Click Bait" in April that she was still healing from her breakup with Zach and didn't know much about the men in Bachelor Nation.
