The show is based on the Dutch seriesDe Verraders.In addition to the first U.S. season on Peacock, which premiered in January, other installments have popped in the U.K. and Australia (they’re available to watch on Peacock as well).
Larsa, 49, and Marcus, 32, will be the first couple to go into the game with their relationship exposed. A previous pair in Australia attempted to play the game hiding their romance but were eventually discovered and voted off.
That means Larsa and Marcus' relationship might place a big target on their backs from the get go among their fellow “faithfuls.” They’ve already appeared inseparable, posing for cuddly selfies on Instagram Stories from Scotland on Wednesday.

She was trying to talk to him, and I was getting jealous over it,” she recalled “And it was weird because I’m not really the jealous person, but I was jealous over the situation. And so then, I was thinking maybe I do really like him.That kind of sealed the deal.”
