Crew sets sail on 10’s Real Love Boat

Darren McMullen, Daniel Doody & Hannah Ferrier join Captain Paolo Arrigo aboard Mediterranean dating series.

Darren McMullen (Celebrity Apprentice) has been confirmed as host of upcoming dating season The Real Love Boat for Network 10.

He will be joined by Hannah Ferrier (Below Deck) as Cruise Director, Daniel Doody (Studio 10) as Head of Entertainment and Princess Cruises’ Captain Paolo Arrigo.

The series sees singles sailing the Mediterranean looking to find their perfect match.

Darren McMullen said: “I’m so pumped to be part of The Real Love Boat. My first time on a ship and what better way to kick this off than cruising around the Mediterranean in summer. This is one of those experiences that you really have to pinch yourself and can’t believe your luck. I feel incredibly blessed and I’m looking forward to seeing the romance blossom for our singles.”

Hannah Ferrier, who will be responsible for managing hospitality and social events, said: “After more than a decade at sea in the Mediterranean I am so excited to join The Real Love Boat and help all our amazing passengers find love! I’m going to be watching them very closely and helping them every step of the way on their journeys to find their perfect match.”

Daniel Doody as Head of Entertainment said: “It’s so amazing to be part of The Real Love Boat. Sailing along the beautiful Mediterranean with our singles onboard finding love is exciting and new. Let the fun times begin!”

The Real Love Boat will set sail aboard Princess Cruises ship, Regal Princess across the waters of Spain, Greece, France, Italy, Turkey and Montenegro.

Real-life Captain, Paolo Arrigo, master of Regal Princess, responsible for 3,560 guests, said: “As the custodians of the original and beloved Love Boat TV series, it is an honour to participate in a new and contemporary rendition of the show and help our Australian guests find love like the series. It is also a wonderful opportunity to introduce Australian viewers to cruising and show why it’s one of the most-loved holidays on offer.”

Only one couple will be able to make it to the final port, but who will drop anchor and who will be cast off?

The series is due later this year on 10.

The Real Love Boat is produced by Eureka Productions in association with Buster Productions. Chris Culvenor, Paul Franklin, Emma Lamb and Wes Dening serve as executive producers for Eureka.

    1. 10 has nearly always had diversity in their reality / dating shows (maybe some early Bachelors were problematic). Full cast for current season is yet to be revealed. I feel the messaging was a bit muddled.
