Are You The One? UK | Series Preview (MTV & Paramount+)
Paramount+ and MTV announces the cast for the brand-new series of Are You The One? UK, which will launch on the channel and streaming service from Monday 8th August.
After eight seasons, 80 perfectly matched pairs and countless confrontations, Are You The One? has finally made its way across the pond for its first ever UK series, hosted by broadcaster and presenter Joelah Noble.
Are You The One? UK follows 20 unlucky-in-love singletons whose scientific ‘Perfect Match’ is somewhere in the luxurious Malta villa – all they have to do is find them. If they can uncover all ten Perfect Matches by the end of the series they will be rewarded with not only love, but a huge cash prize.
With plenty of challenges, dates and the dreaded Truth Booth to help them decipher the matches, our singles take part in Match Up Ceremonies in each episode to determine who is the one, and who is just another summer romance.
Speaking of the new series, host Joelah Noble said: “I couldn’t be more excited to be fronting the first UK series of ‘Are You The One’. I have loved this show for years, so it really was a dream job for me!
Expect romance, drama and passion … all the best ingredients for an amazing series which teaches us that it’s not always easy to find your ‘perfect match’ but it’s very much worth it!”
Get ready to turn up the heat and meet the guys & girls ready to find their perfect match this summer…
