The end of 2018 is almost here and that means one thing – we’re getting even closer to the premiere of Bachelor in Paradise.

But while we may still have a few months ahead of us before the show airs, the rumours are still flooding in.

Earlier this year, it was announced that two of our favouriteBachelorcontestants Cass Wood and Brooke Blurton would be appearing on the new season of Bachelor in Paradise.

Cass and Brooke made it to the top four on this year’s season ofTheBachelor, with both girls leaving the show heartbroken over the Honey Badger.

But there’s a twist.

If Instagram is anything to go by, it seems Cassmayhave already found love – andnotwith someone fromBachelor in Paradise.

In fact, her new rumoured boyfriend is not a reality star at all.

Over the Christmas break, the 23-year-old has been popping up on the Instagram page of Warringah rugby player Tyson Davis, and they’re looking incredibly loved up.

Tyson even shared an Ali and Taite style activewear shot.

Although reality star Cass hasn’t shared any photos to her own Instagram page yet, Tyson has popped up in her Instagram Stories in recent weeks.

The pair were also spotted by Woman’s Day together at Sydney’s Palm Beach earlier this month.

Neither Cass or Tyson have officially commented on the rumours.

However, it’s unlikely we’ll get confirmation on whether the pair are dating until afterBachelor in Paradiseairs.

Earlier this month, Cass was spotted grocery shopping with fellowBachelor in Paradisecontestant Nathan Farvo.

In a series of Instagram stories on Cass’ profile, the pair were seen shopping in a supermarket and watching a movie at the cinema together.

In otherBachelor in Paradiserumours,contestants Alex Nation and Bill Goldsmith were also caught holding hands and kissing in a Melbourne park earlier in the month.

Filming for the second season of the show concluded earlier this year in Fiji, but the season doesn’t air until March so we’ve still got alittlewhile to wait.
