This will be the first time that Jackson and Olympios will see each other after the incident.
Both former regular cast member of the fourth season of "Bachelor in Paradise" were involved in an alleged sexual assault incident that reportedly happened in June 4. The production had to be halted after two producers filed a complaint about the incident so Warner Bros. can conduct a thorough investigation.
The network found out that the people behind the upcoming season of "Bachelor in Paradise" season 4 have no fault in the rumored sexual encounter between Olympios and Jackson, and allowed the series to continue filming on location in Mexico.
Olympios also decided to conduct her own investigation about the incident, but later on claimed that she and her legal team reached a satisfying conclusion about the case.
ABC is slated to air the special two-hour premiere episode of "Bachelor in Paradise" season 4 on Monday, Aug. 14, at 8 p.m. EDT.
