Alisha Aitken-Radburn returns to Bachelor In Paradise AGAIN

Alisha Aitken-Radburn has been announced as the latest intruder to appear on Bachelor In Paradise this year 

Alisha, who starred on Nick ‘The Honey Badger’ Cummins’ season of The Bachelor in 2018 and Bachelor In Paradise season two in 2019, will return to the franchise for a third time this week. 

‘I really enjoyed my first round of Bachelor In Paradise Australia (despite the heartbreak)’, the 27-year-old told Channel 10 on Sunday. 

‘And there’s still a bit of me that hopes I will get my little Bach fantasy and round off my experience by meeting someone who could actually be my future,’ she added. 

Alisha famously enjoyed a steamy romance with Jules Bourne last season, but things fizzled out after he dumped her to pursue his connection Tenille Favios instead. 

But things did not work out in Jules’ favour when Tenille ‘friend-zoned’ him.

Afterwards, Jules pleaded with Alisha to keep him in Paradise and she eventually decided to give him a second chance.  

However, the series ended with Jules dumping Alisha for a second time after she gave him an ultimatum to admit they are more than ‘mates’.

After leaving Fiji, the couple went on to secretly date each other on-and-off back in Australia, before Alisha finally chose to end things at the Bachelor In Paradise reunion. 

Slamming Jules in front of a live studio audience, Alisha accused Jules of giving her false hope of a romantic future by sleeping at her house and talking about children. 

‘Sometimes you have to be like, ‘OK, this is a cycle. It’s going to continue and actually I’m the only person who can change this,” she said.

‘So, I’m going to change it and this is my night for closure. It doesn’t mean you’re not going to be in my life. You’re going to be in my life as like a fun girlfriend.’    

Bachelor in Paradise continues Tuesday at 7.30pm on Channel 10
