The romance! The drama! TLC is turning up the heat with its newest spinoff, 90 Day: Hunt for Love — and we’re already hooked. In this steamy new dating series, airing Mondays, at 8 p.m. ET, your favorite 90 Day Fiancé alums and a batch of fresh faces, head to a singles-only retreat in Tulum, Mexico, in a quest to find real, lasting love.
Luckily for Us, we got an exclusive sneak peek with some of your favorite stars including, Chantel Everett, Tiffany Franco, Colt Johnson, Tim Malcolm, Cortney Reardanz and Rob Warne, at our VIP pre-premiere event with TLC in New York City. What they had to say is every bit as wild, charming and unfiltered as you’d expect.
When asked how they’d impress a potential match in just 90 seconds, the answers were as unique as the cast themselves. Colt joked he’d “do a little dance or something,” laughing that there’s not much time to work with.
Tiffany, on the other hand, would go for a more direct approach, saying, “I would sit there and give them that stare — throw them with my eyes.” Chantel kept it classic, saying she’d “bat [her] eyes and smile really nicely,” while Tim revealed his strategy would be humor: “People say I get girls way too pretty for me — I think it’s the sense of humor. So, I’d try to make ’em laugh.”
Like Colt, Rob would turn the moment into a mini dance party, soundtracked to Mario’s “Let Me Love You.” And Cortney offered the most relatable answer of all: “Fail miserably?”
As veterans of the 90 Day universe, the cast knows a thing or two about love under pressure and how reality TV changes everything. Colt admitted that relationships have become more complicated with all the logistics and backstory, joking, “Good thing they’ve got the series on Blu-ray.”
Tiffany reflected on how the experience forced her to confront some uncomfortable personal growth: “It definitely pushes your boundaries — and even if you don’t want to, you learn some hard truths about yourself.” Cortney said she’s now more cautious and aware of scams. Meanwhile, Tim was blunt: “It’s hard to date when you’re on TV. I don’t do a lot of dating — and it shows. I’m rusty.”
Watching the show back, meanwhile, can be just as intense as filming it. Tiffany admitted, “While it’s happening, you’re like, ‘Oh my God, what?’ But then you rewatch it and think, ‘Did I really say that?’” Rob said he avoids watching altogether because he doesn’t like seeing himself on screen. Cortney, ever self-deprecating, said, “It’s so cringey. I’m like, ‘Oh my God, do I talk that slow all the time?’”
And of course, we had to know about their wildest requests from fans. Colt recalled someone who asked him to be “the father of their cats and live with them on a farm.” Tim’s experience took a darker turn — his phone number leaked during his first year, and he received death threats. Rob said some of the DMs he gets are sexual noting “the outlandish ideas that I’d be into this or that or that.” Tiffany might have the strangest story of all: a fan offered to pay her for a vial of her used bathwater. “I was like … how much are we talking?” she laughed.
Whether you’re in it for the love stories, the jaw-dropping moments or just a fresh round of your favorite 90 Day stars, 90 Day: Hunt for Love delivers everything fans crave — and then some.
90 Day: Hunt for Love airs on TLC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.
