Other names linked to the show include former Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley and Amazing Race Australia host Beau Ryan.

Thattil has wasted no time in capitalising on the opportunities that have stemmed from her finishing in the top 10 at last year’s international final of the Miss Universe quest. A reality show appearance would continue to boost her profile and brand.

Ten is yet to reveal the identity of any of the cast members.

The show was filmed in New South Wales during lockdown in August and September.
