The Bachelorette SPOILER: Shannon Karaka could be set to ‘RETURN to the mansion’ after being evicted
An evicted Bachelorette contestant could be set to return to the mansion after Becky Miles changed her mind about sending him home.
In what could be a massive plot twist, Shannon Karaka was photographed arriving back at the mansion in a taxi ‘in the lead-up to the finale’.
Photos published by gossip website The Wash show the 30-year-old salesman carrying his luggage with the help of a female producer.

However, a source tells Daily Mail Australia that while Becky, 30, had ‘strong feelings for Shannon’, she ended things with him on the show and didn’t change her mind.
‘[Shannon] made it close to the finale but wasn’t asked to come back. It’s completely not true,’ the insider said.
Since leaving the series, Shannon hasn’t exactly been keeping a low profile while out and about in Sydney, which suggests he doesn’t make to the finale.

The New Zealand native had viewers swooning as he proudly represented his Kiwi culture by performing a haka during the season premiere.
Becky was moved by the traditional dance, saying: ‘Shannon seems like he’s really close to his family, and that’s really important to me. So that such a great start. That’s a tick in my book.’
‘That was amazing. Like, it gave me goosebumps,’ she later told him.

Shannon replied: ‘I’ve always been very proud of my culture. So, my dad’s from New Zealand. My mum’s Australian. So I’m a Maussie!’
Elly noted: ‘I feel like I could definitely see something forming between Becky and him perhaps. She’s giving me some vibes!’
