While some contestants applied to be on the reality dating show, others were chosen by producers. "I was actually messaged by a member of production to go on the show, and I didn't really know necessarily what it was about. I just knew that it was an opportunity to meet attractive people," Francesca revealed to Cosmopolitan in an interview. Harry, on the other hand, applied. "Yeah, so I applied, because I just suck at dating," he told the outlet.
