Up until now, all we’ve had to cling to is the Bachelor In Paradise trailer and a dream.
And while our friends at Channel 10 have been putting out loads of teasers about the highly anticipated new season, they’ve been a little less forthcoming about when the show is actually going to air.
That is, until Sunday. When a few of the contestants started to go rogue and tell us exactly when the show will start.
Michael Turnbull, from Sam Frost’s season of The Bachelorette, shared a photo on Instagram alongside a caption stating the show will air on Sunday March 25.
THAT’S JUST TWO WEEKS FROM NOW.
But the photo he shared has started a separate conversation: where the hell is Apollo? And Laurina? And Jarrod?
Surely he wouldn’t be so silly to post a picture taken midway through the season… once some contestants have left? Surely not. Maybe they’re just… elsewhere.
WATCH: Check out the teaser trailer for Bachelor In Paradise. Post continues below.
It’s genius timing for Channel 10, with I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! wrapping up on Sunday 11 March, and Married at First Sight finishing within the coming weeks. MasterChef will start around May, which means there’s a nice opening from the middle of March until the beginning of May for Bachelor In Paradise to slot into.
MasterChef will probably finish around July, and then after that, The Bachelor starts.
We're just so excited. This is the first ever Bachelor In Paradise Australia, and it's going to be a good one.
LISTEN: Australia, Bachelor In Paradise is coming!

Did you know there's no such word as bachelorette? The word is spinster. Anyway, since feminists have hijacked the language and made it gender-neutral (no more actresses, hostesses, headmistress), what is this word doing in the alternate lexicon?
And why this fascination with reality shows about, really, nothing? Instead of getting people who look like they've fallen from the pages of a fashion magazine to be in Married at First Sight, why not get a 40-something frump with freckles and lousy social skills. Now that would be an achievement!
Language changes all the time. If it didn't, we'd all be speaking like Chaucer. New words appear all the time too. In fact Shakespeare invented loads of words we use today - eyeball, addiction, birthplace, lonely, majestic, excitement - around 1700 words. Life is about change, Jim, how dull would life be if everything stayed the same? Get on board and embrace the new!
So technically a 'bachelorette' would be a small bachelor?
In America, they've been using the term 'bachelorette party' for years.
I've never heard that about Shakespeare. But I looked it up and found this.

My source was shakespeare-online, but I will concede that it could be incorrect. However, my basic point still stands - language changes all the time.
