Nine big names in reality tv are already speculated to join The Challenge Australia and another star from The Bachelor franchise will be joining them, according to Daily Mail.

Konrad Bien, who appeared on Brooke Blurton’s season of The Bachelorette and is happily dating former Bachelor star Abbie Chatfield was spotted boarding a flight to Buenos Aires via Auckland alongside fellow The Challenge contestants, all but confirming his spot on the new show.

The Challenge is a hugely popular reality show that originated in the UK and has spawned 37 seasons. It regularly features reality stars from both the UK and the US and sees the cast members compete against each other in gruelling and physical challenges.

The Australian version of the show has a slightly different format from the original version.  The series, titled The Challenge: War of the Worlds, will see four separate countries – Australia, the UK, the US and Argentina – run their own versions of the show, which is known as The Challenge (part one). The winners from the local series will compete against the other countries in The Challenge (part two) to determine the winner. While a air date hasn’t been set, the reality show will allegedly start filming this week.

The other cast members who are tipped to appear on The Challenge are listed below.

Jack Vidgen – Australia’s Got Talent

Cyrell Paul – MAFS season six
