Temptation Island South Africa
The ultimate relationship test, Temptation Island SA follows couples at a crossroads in their relationship, where they must mutually decide if they are ready to commit to one another for the rest of their lives — or go their separate ways.
Together, the couples experience a luxurious holiday in paradise (aka Knysna), where they live separately – with 20 sexy single men and women who are looking for love. This last taste of the single life is meant to help answer their most difficult questions about their relationship, like, “Are we meant to be?” and “Is there someone better out there for me?”
Temptation Island South Africa is Showmax’s first international reality TV series format, and puts a local spin on the Teen Choice-nominated pop culture phenomenon, which has been adapted 25 times and counting.
Afrokaans Film & Television (Survivor SA) is producing the 12-episode Showmax Original, which is hosted by Phat Joe (The Real Housewives of Durban reunion).
For the lowdown on the series and to meet the couples and singles, go to temptationislandsa.com.
Plus, you can win a fabulous trip to Knysna to experience paradise for yourself. Competition closes 11 November 2021.
