Hosting The Real Love Boat is "a dream come true" for Rebecca and Jerry
The Real Love Boat is inspired by the 1970's rom-com television series The Love Boat. As mentioned earlier, the show brings together 12 single contestants, six men and six women.
These individuals embark on a Mediterranean voyage on a luxury cruise ship, taking part in various challenges and surprise tasks until they find their perfect partner.
Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell are excited to host The Real Love Boat together and help the singles match their right pairs. Speaking about hosting the show, Romijn and O'Connell said:
"After years of consuming, arguing about and dissecting unscripted television, hosting a reality series where a group of singles look for love while aboard a Princess Cruise ship, seemed like a dream come true. When we heard it was aboard THE REAL LOVE BOAT, that dream got an iconic theme song - 'we promise something for everyone.’”
Even crew members such as Captain Paolo Arrigo, bartender Ezra Freeman, and Cruise Director Matt Mitcham will help the singles navigate their love life on the reality show.
Tune in to CBS on Wednesday to watch Daniel's love journey on The Real Love Boat.
