Following the same format as the 2023 BBC show I Kissed a Boy, the new all-female version matches up an initial-line up of 10 queer, lesbian and bisexual girls, who all meet for the first time with a kiss.

Episode 2 also introduced the first new girl into the Masseria – and she certainly caused a stir as she set her sights on multiple girls – as well as teasing the entrance of a further three cast members in episode three, which is set to land this Sunday (12th May).

So, who are the singles hoping to find their perfect match on I Kissed a Girl, which sees the return of host Dannii Minogue, as well as the addition of voiceover by TikTok star Charley Marlowe?

As she show continues on BBC iPlayer, here's everything you need to know about the cast.

Job: Support worker / Aesthetics

Cara admits that she has her walls her up when it comes to relationships and is hoping that I Kissed a Girl will help her let her guard down.

Known of her sense of humour and sense of humour, there is never a dull moment with Cara around, and the 25-year-old is proud of people knowing where she has come from in life.

"Coming from a small town in Northern Ireland, the rare chance to be in an environment exclusively full of queer women was an opportunity of a lifetime," she said of her time on the series.

Age: 23

From: Hemel Hempstead

Job: Publishing executive

A self-professed "lover girl", Demi tends to gravitate towards people and pays attention to their "vibes" rather than looks.

Demi lives with her family in Hemel Hempstead and coming out had its challenges. The 23-year-old is very close with her mother but her father is very traditional and she says he found it difficult to accept.

Speaking of her time on the show, Demi said she was able to be "one hundred per cent unapologetically" herself and was bale to experience "being part of a close-knit queer community".

Abbie

From: Brighton

Job: Make-up artist and hair stylist

Abbie is looking to find a girlfriend who will treat her like a princess and jokes that she would love to be a WAG one day.

Growing up, Abbie came out to her family when she was 12 years old, and it was a grandad who was her biggest ally and supporter.

Speaking of her time on the show, Abbie said she loved how "comfortable" she felt around the girls, and that she allowed herself "to be vulnerable in conversations around sexuality".

Amy

Funny and flamboyant, Amy has been single for three years and is beginning to feel like she has been "left on the shelf". A hopeless romantic, Amy wants to find a "princess" in the Masseria that she hopes she can take home and live happily ever after with.

Amy had feelings about her sexuality at 13 years old, but didn't find the confidence to come out to her family until she was 21.

"I can only imagine the sense of validation and belonging that me and my sisters would have felt had we had this kind of representation on our telling growing up," Amy said.

Chef by day and drummer by night, Fiorenza is a real "softie" and admits that she falls fast and loves hard. She is hoping to find her perfect match in the Masseria.

"I'm very proud to be a part of the show, especially the first season for the girls," Fiorenza said. "It should have existed years ago. We need more representation for lesbian relationships."

The 28-year-old is looking to meet a girl who has her own ambitions and who understands that football is a big part of her life.

Georgia said I Kissed a Girl is "incredible representation" and is "so glad" she had the chance to be a part of it.

Meg teased she will "definitely be bringing some heat to the show".

I Kissed a Girl premieres on Sunday 5th May on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer.
