Who will Kate Gallivan date in 'Bachelor in Paradise' Season 8?

The newcomers of 'Bachelor in Paradise' Season 8 will be introduced in Episode 6 with the intention of testing the old bonds. And, it seems that Kate will be successful in her mission of breaking the old connection and creating space for a new one. She is reported to spark a connection with Jacob Rapini in 'Bachelor in Paradise' Season 8 Episode 6. Jacob in the preview clip is seen having a good time with Kate. He says in the sneak peek, "If Jill even remotely saw me talking to these girls..." His sentence is then continued by Jill Chin saying, "I'll blow his f**king clear off". Jacob is then shown kissing the new girl. Well, that clearly hints that he has kept his old connection aside and is trying to build a new one.

Moreover, Jill is further seen crying in the clip, hinting that Casa Amor will take off her connection. According to the reports, Jacob will leave Jill for Kate. We all know how insecure and sensitive Jill is, therefore, she will not be seen handling the situation well in the upcoming episode. Indeed, the 'BiP' star is reported to leave the island after her heartbreak. Well, it remains to be seen whether Jacob and Kate will be able to maintain their relationship.
