Overview
- RTL lifts the top prize to €75,000, with the €25,000 bonus voided if any participant takes even a single puff of a cigarette, according to the network.
- Promotional clips already show contestants holding cigarettes, raising doubts about keeping the house smoke-free; Bild reports several smokers in the cast, a claim not independently confirmed.
- Producers redesigned the setup with one large double bed per couple, a narrow shower door offering minimal privacy, and a pool replaced by a garden laube and a simple water trough.
- Confirmed pairs include Hanka Rackwitz with partner Pierre, Jochen and Tina Horst, Ryan Wöhrl with Lina, Edda Pilz with Michael Klotz, Tommy Pedroni with Paulina Ljubas, Tara Tabitha with Dennis Lodi, Silva Gonzalez with Stefanie Schanzleh, and Marvin Kleinen with Jennifer Degenhart, with two couples set to enter later.
- Release plan: episode one streams Sept. 9 on RTL+, the TV premiere is Sept. 16 with a double start week as episode two follows on Sept. 17 before settling into a weekly rhythm.
