Here comes trouble! New Bachelor in Paradise trailer reveals an explosive showdown between Abbie Chatfield and Ciarran Stott’s ex-girlfriend
Abbie Chatfield has made no secret of the fact she wants to couple up with Ciarran Stott on the upcoming season of Bachelor In Paradise.
But it seems things don’t go to plan, as a trailer released on Wednesday hints at a showdown between Abbie, 25, and Ciarran’s ex Renee Barrett.
The promo begins calmly enough, with Abbie and Ciarran, 26, enjoying a romantic date by a waterfall as she says in a voice over: ‘He and I are really compatible.’

The feelings appear mutual as Ciarran later admits: ‘There’s some strong chemistry there and I’m liking it.’
