As previously announced, four suitors from Kaitlyn Bristowe's current season of The Bachelorette will be appearing on Bachelor in Paradise's second edition, which premieres with a two-night event on Sunday, August 2 and Monday, August 3 from 8-10PM ET/PT.
After being booted off The Bachelorette in Monday night's episode, JJ Lane, a 32-year-old former investment banker from Denver, CO, and Tanner Tolbert, a 28-year-old auto finance manager from Kansas City, MO, will be getting a second chance at finding love in paradise, People reported.
Bristowe eliminated Lane during a two-on-one date in which he had to face off against Joe Bailey. Lane is best remembered for sparking up a bromance -- which many people believed to be an actual romance -- with former contestant Clint Arlis. Lane has a three-year-old daughter and admitted to Bristowe he had cheated on his ex-wife, causing his whole world to come crashing down.
Lane told the cameras upon his The Bachelorette exit he's looking for a serious relationship and his partner in crime.

Tolbert flew under the radar during Bristowe's season except snagging some time here or there with the show's star during group dates. While attending a fake Irish wake, Tolbert cracked a memorable joke in which he reminded Bristowe of his name and basically made it known he was well aware he had no shot of getting picked.
Tolbert proved he has a lot of knowledge when it comes to The Bachelor franchise. He warned Bristowe's group of Season 11 guys all about Nick Viall and his history with Andi Dorfman. Tolbert, however, came around and appeared to become friends with Viall.
People previously disclosed that Jonathan Holloway, a 33-year-old automotive spokesman, Detroit, MI, will be appearing on Bachelor in Paradise.
One more person from Bristowe's season will also become a cast member of Bachelor in Paradise. The guys still in the running for the former dance instructor's heart are Bailey, Viall, Ben Higgins, Shawn Booth and Jared Haibon. In addition, ABC had announced one "mystery woman" will appear on the show. Their identities will be revealed at a later date.
The second season of Bachelor in Paradise is filmed in the exotic location of Mexico and features individuals looking for love -- or just attention -- with twists, surprises and unexpected guests along the way. Will they find a lasting relationship or just get heartbroken again?
