During the third episode of Bachelor In Paradise season 8, viewers saw Aaron Clancy return to the beach, and he revealed viewers will see a different side of him this year. Aaron joined the beach alongside his best friend and fellow returnee, James Bonsall from The Bachelorette season 25. The two previously appeared on BIP season 7; however, they did not end up finding love and decided to leave together in a bromance. Now, the best friends are back, and Aaron has teased that things will be different compared to last season for him.

Before BIP season 8 began airing, Aaron revealed that he returned to the beach to pursue Genevieve Parisi from The Bachelor season 26, Clayton Echard's season. However, the relationship didn't always go smoothly for the couple. According to an interview Aaron did with TheWrap, via Yahoo Entertainment, one clip shows Aaron having an emotional conversation with her, to which he replied, "They love using that clip; I’m just gonna say real emotions were definitely involved."

Aaron Went Back To Bachelor In Paradise To Pursue Genevieve

Aaron, who wanted to pursue Genevieve, also revealed that since this wasn't his first time appearing on BIP, he returned with more assurance as he learned that anything could happen while on the beach. Despite having a few brief romances during his last appearance, he was truly there this time to try and find love. It is unknown what will happen between Aaron and Genevieve, but viewers will have to tune into the rest of the season to see if they find love by the end.

Aaron and James arrived during week two of BIP season 8 and received a double date card. Aaron chose Genevieve, while James chose Shanae Ankney to attend the date with them. This shocked some BIP viewers as both women went on a two-on-one date during Clayton's season, with Genevieve receiving the rose. Shanae then recalled rumors about Aaron and Genevieve hooking up after Genevieve was eliminated, something they both denied.

Bachelor In Paradise has created successful relationships throughout the series, so anything is possible when it comes to Aaron and Genevieve. They were both fan favorites on their respective seasons of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, so fans shouldn't be upset if they ended up together. However, that doesn't mean that there won't be any tears or drama throughout BIP season 8, so if fans want to see that, they will just have to tune in each week to see everything unravel in Mexico. Even though the seasons go by quickly, Bachelor Nation still has a lot to look forward to each week.
