Cassandra Wood claims she had ‘no idea’ Channel 10 had announced her for Bachelor In Paradise

It was confirmed by Channel 10 last week that she is set to appear on the second season of Bachelor In Paradise  

But over the weekend, former Bachelor star Cassandra Wood didn’t seem to know she was starring on the program.

Before jetting back to Australia just in time for Derby Day, the 23-year-old was in Thailand, and despite posting pictures to social media daily, it appears the blonde beauty wasn’t checking her emails.

EXCLUSIVE: The last to know? Cassandra Wood said she had ‘no idea’ Channel 10 had confirmed her for Bachelor In Paradise season two during VERY awkward interview at Derby Day on Saturday 

‘What… did they?’ Cassandra asked Daily Mail Australia at Derby Day when asked about her confirmed return to TV.

Cass appeared very confused, bumbling that she had ‘no idea’ what she could and could not say, while shocked the news was out without her knowledge.

Both Cassandra and her co-star Brooke Blurton were the first names to be announced by the network for the show during their annual Upfronts event.

‘Well, the Cass is out of the bag now! Fan faves Brooke and Cass are heading to Paradise! #BachelorInParadise,’ a tweet from Channel 10 read last Wednesday.

Since finding fame on the show, Cass has earned a legion of followers while living the high life and attending many VIP parties.

However, despite appearing to be kept in the dark on her own big announcements, it seems the star is also struggling to keep up with her glamourous lifestyle.

As guests in The Birdcage at Derby Day on Saturday asked her who she was wearing, the beauty had to repeatedly turn to Brittany Hockley for a friendly reminder.

‘Elle Ze…..?’ Cass asked her co-star several times, while struggling to remember Elle Zeitoune – and the pronunciation of the Australian label.

The beauty was wearing the brand’s Tara Floral design, stocked at Adelaide’s after Dark Boutique, and stunned in the strapless white dress with a skater-style skirt.  

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Channel 10 for comment.
