Two of the couples who have lasted in the real world, Nic and Olandria and Chelley and Ace, are not listed on the cast of for the Peacock spinoff set to premiere in early 2026. Huda, who found herself in hot water last week after laughing off the use of a racial slur against Olandria, is also not involved.
