It will be a reality TV mashup when Ex on the Beach makes its debut next month. The upcoming MTV reality dating show will feature a potpourri of famous faces—and an awkward twist that the celebrity contestants won’t see coming.
Entertainment Weekly reports that Ex on the Beach will be hosted by rapper/actor and Dancing with the Stars alum Romeo and will feature single alums of hit reality shows like The Bachelorette, Big Brother, Bachelor in Paradise, Vanderpump Rules, Are You the One?, Bad Girls Club, and MTV’s The Challenge. The cast will also feature some non-celebrity singles as they all meet up in Hawaii to shoot what they think is a typical TV dating show.
But, unbeknownst to contestants, the Ex on the Beach cast will also include the stars’ exes, which is sure to drum up a ton of drama as some seek revenge and others look for a rekindled romance with their former love.
According to Buddy TV , the 10-episode Ex on the Beach is described as “a complicated web of hookups, deceit, revenge, and drama unfolds against the sultry backdrop as couples decide if their love can be reignited, or if the flame of romance is gone for good.”
