Since the first look of the show has been revealed, the fans know that they're in for a ride. The teaser reveals an alleged romance brewing between Chet Hanks (the son of actor Tom Hanks) and Kim Zolciak, who last featured in the show Real Housewives of Atlanta and its spinoff Don't Be Tardy for the Party. Although both parties involved have yet to confirm this, when it comes to reality TV, never say never.
However, this is not the only reason why Zolciak has been making headlines lately. She has revealed that her marriage to Kroy Biermann has not been easy to navigate, and sources claim that the couple has also been dealing with financial troubles. While the reality TV star is yet to officially separate from her husband, she states that she has definitely made up her mind on that front.
We also get a glimpse of Ally Brooke, former member of Fifth Harmony, getting candid about how challenging it was for her to deal with stardom. After the all-girl pop band had hits such as Worth It and All in My Head, the five members of the group decided to take a hiatus back in 2018 and have been pursuing individual projects since.
"Being in the Fifth Harmony, everything had to be perfect. That was pressure for me."
In the trailer, the cast of Surreal Life: The Villa of Secrets wastes no time in opening up about their secrets, which will certainly surprise the audiences. Among them, one that has made heads turn came from Tyler Posey, an actor and musician.
Posey, who is well known for his hit show Teen Wolf, opened up about his love life, sharing that he had been intimate with a male s*x worker in the past. Apart from being open about his sexuality, he has been vocal about his journey of sobriety and the pressures of living up to the title of "role model."

What happens when eight people from different walks of life live together? Chaos ensues, in the best way possible. Every secret revealed, past relationships dissected, and rumor confirmed is interesting to watch. The trailer for the show, featuring known faces such as Tyler Posey, Johnny Weir, and Ally Brooke, can be seen discussing all matters personal and professional.
In addition to this, we can also see actor and musician Chet Hanks trying to break certain expectations that come with being the child of a movie star. A clip in the trailer shows him joking about what his parents, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, had to say about his decision to join the world of Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets.
"They disowned me. Just Kidding."
Apart from this, Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets is set to design challenges that will push each contestant physically as well as mentally. With Olympic experience under his belt, all eyes will surely be on Johnny Weir as he opts for these challenges.
All in all, the ever-changing dynamics of the contestants in Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets will certainly be interesting to watch.
Given how eccentric their personalities are, Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets will also be a medium to understand social psychology and the overall complexties of human behavior.
