Former ‘Bachelorette,’ Swimwear Brand Founder, Model Among Those Jumping Headfirst Into Dating Pool On CW Program

The CW Network has announced the three women looking for love and the 21 men competing for their affection on the all-new season of the hit unscripted franchise FBoy Island, premiering Thursday, October 12 (8:00-10:00pm ET/PT).

The three women hitting the beach to make a love connection are Katie Thurston, 32, a comedian and former “Bachelorette” from Seattle, WA; Daniella Grace, 33, an influencer, real estate investor and swimwear brand founder from Marina Del Rey, CA; and Hali Okeowo, 28, a model from Brooklyn, NY. The competing men include a basketball player, Chippendales dancer, opera singer and a pair of twins that co-own a trucking company.

Hosted by comedian and actress Nikki Glaser, FBoy Island follows three women who move to a tropical paradise where they’re joined by 21 men — 10 self-proclaimed “Nice Guys” looking for love, and 11 self-proclaimed “FBoys,” there to compete for cold, hard cash. The women will navigate the dating pool together with the hope of finding a lasting love connection. By the finale, all will be revealed: who is a Nice Guy, who is an FBoy, who the women ultimately choose, and who walks away with the prize money. According to CW, Fboy Island is “a social experiment that asks: Can FBoys truly reform and do Nice Guys always finish last?”

FBoy Island is produced by STXtelevision. The series was created by Elan Gale (“The Bachelor” franchise) who is executive producing for TheYearOfElan Productions alongside Jason Goldberg for STXtelevision, Nikki Glaser, Noah Fogelson and Bob Simonds. Bill Dixon and Audrey Smith serve as executive producers and showrunners.
