Stars of the new BBC reality dating show Stuck on Honeymoon Island The series says it proves it’s another similar show.

Stuck on Honeymoon IslandThe person hosted by Davina McCall begins a speed dating session before the matchmakers pair up, and see a group of singletons sending to a remote island embark on a speed dating session.

Once there, the couple marries before they know each other’s names and embarks together on a three-week honeymoon while they are stuck on the island.

One of the couples is Helen, 35, and Abby, 32. He appeared to be connected fairly instantly during the speed of Episode 1, which aired on September 3rd.

After getting married, the pair appeared to be one of the stronger couple, but it seemed to be in the way of several bumps on the road, including Abby was a “groaning at the top” and in the cold pain that Helen blocked the kiss.

With another three week episode, you won’t know where their journey will go. Speaking solely to Pinknews, the couple shared that at least they hope that their stories would encourage other TV reality dating shows to include more stranger couples.

Helen said she respects Stuck on Honeymoon Island Because the show “never focuses on our sexuality.”

“We’re here, so I like it’s not a weird show.

“We are just looking for love like everyone else, so we are very pleased that they have involved members of our queer cast.

“I’m really happy it’s mixed in. I hope it’s the beginning of showing you everything you can do. [have LGBTQ+ contestants] And if you choose to do so, you can be diverse. So do it! ”

As Helen and Abby have shown, queer people can be loved as much as straight couples and as dramatically as they are.

Helen explained that there was initially a “really good vibe” between the couple and that they instantly fantasized about each other.

“It was really quick, ‘Oh, you look like you’re fit, and the energy is really good’ so I was really excited,” she said.

However, as episodes 2 and 3 showed, there may be some blockades on their path to love.

“To be honest with you, the second, three, maybe four or five days – we’ll have to watch next week – it shows that the gloss has disappeared. I think the reality is that this experience will really be difficult for us,” explained Helen.

“We end up having some rather difficult conversations when we try to navigate both of our personal experiences.”

A preview of next week’s episode, shown at the end of Episode 3, currently streaming on iPlayer, suggests a bubbly tension between the pair, as Helen can’t get close because of pain.

“That’s for me,” Abby said of why she struggled with Helen, not physically.

“It’s just one thing you want to explore. So it’s obviously difficult and it’s become difficult throughout those few days… It’s hard to get to the next stage between friendship, relationships and barriers to relationships. [without] Intimacy. ”

For Helen, she “wanted to be close to Abby,” but she was frustrated that her lack of physical touch seemed to hinder their connection.

“We really felt the fact that we couldn’t be a blocker about whether we could move forward in a relationship,” she said.

“It was a huge hurdle for us because one of us had stopped feeling they could move forward with the relationship.”

We haven’t seen how the rest of the show will progress yet. The pair shared “a beautiful, exciting start to fireworks,” but the ending is explosive.

“Let’s face it,” Helen said, “Every marriage has its ups and downs, and our marriages didn’t make a difference. The great thing is that you come on a little roller coaster with us.”
