"They were seeing each other quite a bit after the show – they definitely gave it a red hot go."
While production would love to palm this off as an isolated incident, it appears this isn't the first time producers have fallen in love with their subjects!
"One female producer was fired from The Bachelorette after she became too involved with the boys and forgot about her job and what she was there to do!" our source reveals.
While it had been rumoured for months that Jackson, who starredon Angie Kent’s season of The Bachelorette, would appear in Paradise, he was accidentally confirmed last month.
Lucky Connect, a Melbourne-based influencer agency, shared a photo to Instagram featuring Jackson flanked by his Bachelorette co-stars Jamie Doran and Timm Hanly.
The photo was captioned, “Our good friends are returning to our TV screens for Bachelor in Paradise on July 15.”
At the time, only Jamie and Timm had been officially confirmed to take part in BIP season three.
The post was swiftly deleted, all but confirming Jackson would be back.
Jackson was given the boot by Angie in fourth place during her season of The Bachelorette after his dad gave her a grilling during Hometowns and the pie heir was unable to open up about his feelings for the Gogglebox star.
