MTV picked up from where Love Island 2018 left off and blazed a trail with their late-summer series, True Love or True Lies?.
The series first launched in 2018 but has now officially been confirmed for a series 2 this year.
Maya Jama hosted the first series of the show which saw a couple of liars win themselves £90,000! So, it’s all up for grabs for another year – but who will win, True Love or True Lies?
Here’s everything we know about the new series, including how you can apply to be part of the lover or liar deception competition.

Declan and Bernadette
This True Love or True Lies? couple hails from Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Declan and Bernadette have been together a year and a half and have had their fair share of life events to deal with as a couple.
Bernadette was sadly diagnosed with cancer last year, which resulted in her having to have her leg amputated. Thankfully, Bernadette has since had the all-clear.

Jack and Eliza
What would a reality TV show without at least one contestant from Essex? This pair hails from Essex and have been together for over a year and a half.
Like most couples, 23 year-olds Jack and Eliza tend to bicker a lot.
They don’t live together so the competition could throw a spanner into the works being around each other all the time!

Kory and Emily
The next True Love or True Lies? couple has come a bit further than Essex for the show as they hail from Australia.
Kory and Emily have only been together for four months, so they may be new to their relationship but they’re not new to reality TV.
Both Kory and Emily have appeared on shows before with Kory on Australian Love Island in 2018 and Emily winning Beauty And The Geek in 2013.
Emily, 25, and Kory, 29 describe themselves as “massively competitive” so we can say they’re definitely a couple to look out for.

Poppy and Parissa
Northerners Poppy and Parisa are next up on the list. Poppy is 21 years old and hails from Nottingham while her girlfriend Parisa is 25 and comes from Margate.
After getting chatting on social media, the pair have now been together for around two years.
In ordinary life, Poppy and Parissa already have their relationship questioned. They say when they go out on the town, a lot of lads don’t believe they are a couple.
Well, get ready for some more questions, girls!
