The Real Love Boat: Everyone Who Didn't Make It to the Final Port

Love is in the air and the air smells like a crisp sea breeze as Network Ten’s The Real Love Boat has finally set sail.

That’s right, it’s fresh air and fresh reality TV vibes for us this year, with Ten boldly asking the question: “what if we recreated the concept of Love Island… on a boat?” Don’t get us wrong, though. We’re very into it!

This season, our sexy singles have boarded the Regal Princess, and they’re all hoping for adventure and romance on the high seas. Will they meet their perfect love match, or will it be a titanic disaster? Only time will tell, friends!

In case you haven’t seen Love Island, here’s how it works: the singles couple up, and then compete in various challenges, which are designed to test the connections between the couples. Winning pairs will get treated to very cute, very romantic dates in some of the hottest locations in Europe. Love that for them!

Then there are the re-coupling ceremonies, where the couples can either choose to stay together or explore a new romance, perhaps with a new bombshell who’s boarded the boat?

As well as onboard the Regal Princess, the show filmed across picture-perfect European locations in Spain, Greece, France, Italy, Turkey and Montenegro, so you can expect to feel some serious travel envy while watching the sparks fly between our lovebirds.

Based on the original scripted series from the ’70s, the crew of The Real Love Boat are also there to assist the contenders in their quest for romance.

Hosted by Darren McMullen, The Real Love Boat also features Cruise Director Hannah Ferrier — who Bravo heads will recognise from Below Deck Mediterranean — as well as Head of Entertainment Daniel Doody, and Princess Cruises’ Captain Paolo Arrigo.

Here are all the contestants who didn’t find their perfect match this season.
