The first person to enter the villa is "Too Hot To Handle" alum Francesca Farago. She first came onto the scene starring in the first season of the dating show, where contestants had to form romantic connections without kissing or having sex.

Francesca and her partner on the show Harry Jowsey did not follow these rules and collectively lost the most prize money for the group. During the reunion episode in April 2020, Francesca and Harry still seemed coupled up and Harry even proposed to her. But their relationship seems to have fizzled out afterward.

A year later, Francesca appeared in "Love Is Blind: After the Altar," where she was brought to the contestants' reunion party by Damian Powers. At the time, this was controversial because Damian was in a relationship with costar Giannina Gibelli. In the episode, Giannina confronted Francesca about speculation that she and Damian were more than friends.

Francesca eventually left the event early but Damian and Giannina ended their relationship soon after the reunion.

Giannina told Insider: "After that party, I just knew there's nothing I can do anymore."

"Perfect Match" is Francesca's third appearance in a Netflix reality dating show.

Dom Gabriel

Dom Gabriel is also one of the first arrivals in the villa. The Canadian reality star recently starred in the first season of "The Mole."

In the series, 11 contestants completed tasks while one saboteur, the mole, worked to slow them down. Each day, the contestants had the opportunity to vote out the mole to win the prize money.

Dom said that his motive for going on the show was to win money for his single mother, who he sees as his best friend. Unfortunately, despite his honesty and kind attitude, Dom was eliminated in episode four.

Outside of the Netflix series, Dom is a singer for a band called DontCall.

Joey Sasso

"The Circle" season one winner Joey Sasso also returns in "Perfect Match."

While "The Circle" originated in the UK, Joey starred in the first season of the US version on Netflix. In the social media reality game, contestants choose to be themselves or catfish and lie in order to stay in the game long enough to win the prize money of $100,000. Contestants can only communicate via text, making it easy to come up with a fake persona.

Joey won the first season and even made a romantic connection with costar Miranda Bissonnette, although the pair are just good friends now.

Since then, the New York native has pursued an acting career, including making a small appearance in the Peacock series "Girls5Eva."

Kariselle Snow

Fans may be more familiar with Kariselle Snow's voice than her face. She starred in the first season of "Sexy Beasts" as Kariselle the Panda. In the show, singles dated each other while wearing animal or alien suits so that looks do not impact their dating choices.

On the show, Kariselle was set on finding her future husband. However, considering she's back on another dating show, things did not end well with her partner, Tyler.

Kariselle said on her Instagram that they are still in touch but due to their distance and the pandemic, they weren't able to stay together.

Shayne Jansen

Shayne Jansen is part of the "Perfect Match" cast which has already led to controversy with his "Love Is Blind" costar Natalie Lee.

He starred in the second season of the dating show where he picked Natalie as his partner. However, in the lead-up to their wedding day, the pair had a big fight off-camera, leading to Natalie saying no at the altar.

Natalie later claimed that the real estate agent had told her that he "hated" her and she was "the worst thing to ever happen to him."

Outside of the show, the pair dated again but eventually called it quits. Last month, Natalie accused Shayne of trying to get on "Perfect Match" while the pair were still dating. She wrote on her Instagram Story that they had agreed not to go on it but Shayne started the casting process without telling her.

Shayne responded on his own Instagram Story that "someone" was trying to destroy his character "for personal gain."

We have another player from "The Circle," Ines Tazi. However, she was in the French version of the series, which only ran for one season in 2020.

Ines played as herself in the social media game series but was unfortunately eliminated in episode nine.

Zay Wilson

Zay Wilson from the first season of "The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On" makes a return in "Perfect Match."

In the 2022 series, six contestants gave their partners ultimatums asking them to be prepared to marry them by the end of the show or break up. Rae Williams, Zay's partner, gave him the ultimatum but she ended up coupling with one of the other contestants on the show, Jake Cunningham.

During the experiment, where they spent three weeks living together as a couple, Zay and Rae got into a big fight leading to their breakup. In the reunion show, Zay said he and Rae were romantically involved after filming the show but they have since officially broken up.

This leaves Zay single and ready to mingle with other Netflix stars on "Perfect Match."

Anne-Sophie Petit-Frere

"Selling Tampa" star Anne-Sophie Petit-Frere will also participate in the new dating show.

Unlike the others, she did not star in a Netflix reality dating or competition series. Instead, she was a real estate agent on the show "Selling Tampa," which had an all-Black cast. The series was canceled after its first season.

Savannah Palacio

Savannah Palacio previously starred in both "The Circle" season two and "The Floor is Lava" season two.

In "The Circle," Savannah was one of the first cast members to enter the game in season two, but she didn't last long after being blocked.

Despite winning the first rating challenge, where contestants voted on their most likable costars, the reality star ended up getting into an argument with another costar and was eventually voted out.

Savannah made a brief return as part of a "Circle" team for the Netflix competition show, "The Floor is Lava," but they were knocked out in the first round.

This is the first dating-focused reality series Savannah has starred in.

Nick Uhlenhuth

Nick Uhlenhuth came fifth place in "The Circle" season three. Like Savannah, he was competitive during the gameplay but this backfired in the final ranking, leading to him coming fifth.

While on the show, Nick pretended he was a professional drummer, but he does play the instrument in his free time. The Texan reality star also received multiple nicknames such as "Daddy Nick" and "Big Nick Energy."

Chase DeMoor

After a few days, a couple who wins a compatibility challenge gets to vote in new contestants.

"Too Hot To Handle" bad boy Chase DeMoor is one of the early contestants to be voted in. He is best known for starring in the third season of the dating show where he caused an upset among fans and his costars after dumping Carly Lawrence halfway through the series for a new contestant.

He has since turned from a pro football player to a professional boxer and social media star.

DeMoor also appeared in "Floor is Lava," going up against Savannah's team.

Calvin Crooks

Like Nick, Calvin Crooks is also from "The Circle" season three. He went in as himself but was blocked in episode seven.

Before the show, Crooks was a professional soccer player as well as a personal trainer.

Georgia Hassarati

During the second round of villa entries, two "Too Hot to Handle" season two stars arrived.

The first is Australian reality star Georgia Hasserati. She is best known for losing thousands of pounds within the first episode by kissing four other contestants and for being a Margot Robbie lookalike.

Off the show, Georgia actually dated Francesca's ex-"Too Hot To Handle" partner Harry Jowsey. However, Harry announced they were no longer together in November last year.

Izzy Fairthorne

Georgia was joined by her costar Izzy Fairthorne, who also broke the rules on several occasions in "Too Hot To Handle" season three.

Georgia ended the series coupled with Jackson Mawhinney although it seems they did not stay together after leaving the show.

Izzy was a personal trainer from the UK before entering the show.

Bartise Bowden

At the end of episode four, two contestants were set to arrive at the villa. Bartise Bowden, from the latest season of "Love Is Blind," was chosen to go on a date with Ines.

Last year, Bartise admitted that he was the "villain" of "Love Is Blind" season three after his rocky relationship with Nancy Rodriguez. Throughout season three, Bartise frequently praised another costar's physical appearance in front of Nancy, and also took issue with the 33-year-old's stance on abortion, among other disagreements.

Eventually, Bartise broke Nancy's heart when he said no at the altar.

Damian Powers

Francesca's friend Damian Powers also entered the villa in episode four.

Damian starred in the first season of "Love Is Blind" where he coupled up with Giannina Gibelli. However, at the end of the show, he decided to not marry his costar citing that he thought Giannina was not ready to get married.

"I do love you. Since day one, I've wanted this, I wanted to marry you. I have. I've stayed consistent all the way through this. And you have not. I can't handle the ups and downs of you loving me one day and saying you want to be friends the next," he told her on the show.

The pair dated for a while after the show but called it quits after the reunion in "After the Altar."

It seems he and Francesca may see if there are romantic feelings between them in "Perfect Match," after Damian brought the "Too Hot To Handle" star to the reunion with his ex.
