Rylan, 36, recently revealed that the second series would be getting a massive revamp, and now a familiar face to MAFS UK fans has signed up.
A TV source said: "The girls are pretty much sorted but they're still casting for male stars.
"That's why they're open to people who've been on reality TV before."

But just weeks after agreeing to take part, Arthur pulled out because he'd met someone and was no longer single.
Our mole added: "He's happy to strip off and they're certain he'll bring a lot of drama."
Luke first appeared on MAFS back in 2023 and was partnered up with Jay Howard.
He was booted off the show after having a fight with co-star, Jordan Gayle.

Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam's Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: 'I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out - and excited for everything to come.'
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: 'I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
"While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
'The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, 'Wouldn't it be funny if I signed up?'
'A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.'
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna's vegan lifestyle, the show's first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: "We're not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship."
But six months after going Instagram official, Luke revealed on social media
An intrigued fan asked Luke during a Q&A in August: "Are you still with somebody?"
Luke replied: "Nope, back to the drawing board," and added a screen shot of his Hinge dating profile.

How does Dublin's new AI city guide compare to a real walking tour? We tried them both out

But if that odd and slightly concerning thought did cross your mind, then Dublin City Council has an answer. Introducing Brendan, the Dublin-flavoured, snood-donning twenty-something made of pure pixels and infused with pride in his beloved fair city. 'It's grand to see ya. Brendan here, and I'm absolutely buzzing to take you on a journey through my hometown,' he says, carp-eyed, when you select Dublin in the CityMe smartphone app. 'From lively Temple Bar and the old city, to buzzing Stoneybatter and cool Portobello, we'll discover a wide range of historical, cultural and iconic spots.' Besides calling Oscar Wilde 'the Goat himself' (greatest of all time), there isn't much of the promised Dublin wit on show. Brendan is what your granny might refer to as a 'lovely young fella' (if she doesn't mind the bovine stare), but I'd rather someone a bit more engaging to guide me around the madhouse that is Dublin. In fact, you might even go so far as to call him a bit of a dry shite. The city that spawned business names such as 'Knobs and Knockers' and 'Angela's Rashers' deserves a far more engaging voice to bring it to life. So, I decided to pit Brendan against the ultimate foe: a Dublin walking tour with the renowned Pat Liddy's tour company. After brief introductions, myself and two American tourists, Deirdre Pleasure and Rebecca Nolan, set off with our guide Harry Pender, another twenty-something Dubliner, albeit a non-electronic one. We started out at Barnardo Square on Dame Street, and immediately I was drawn in by Mr Pender's personality as he answered questions, and even managed to summarise Irish history in a lively 15-minute back and forth – not an easy task. We then made our way down to Dublin Castle, where we learnt the origin of the word boycott, chatted about the lies embedded in Irish history (St Patrick was neither a saint or named Patrick) and joked about suncream. We were having such a raucous time, one of the other tours asked us to move along. On we went through Ship Street (which should apparently be called Sheep Street, but was mistranslated) to Christ Church Cathedral, where we heard of the robbery and return of patron saint Laurence O'Toole's heart. Crossing Grattan Bridge, we gazed over at the Ha'penny, officially known as Liffey Bridge (who knew?), where Mr Pender pointed out the spot that the River Poddle, now a mere stream, enters the Liffey through a syphon at Wellington Quay. It went on much like this for the rest of the tour through to the GPO and Trinity College, questions, banter and stories aplenty. An experience of more than three hours mentally shrunk down to what felt like an hour. I want somebody I can ask questions of, and I want somebody to interact with It was engaging, informative and great to get to know our charming tour guide, who also teaches drama to children and partakes in pro wrestling. As the walk went on, it became increasingly difficult to see how any AI character, no matter how swooshy his hair, could live up to the interactivity and humanity of a real human tour guide, and my companions agreed. 'I want somebody I can ask questions of, and I want somebody to interact with,' Ms Pleasure said. 'If I'm like, I've got a few hours and I just, spur of the moment, roam around, then the AI would suffice, but it just gives me an overview. 'But to actually learn, and to be able to have my questions answered and all that kind of stuff, I would rather people,' she added. As for Mr Pender, he was doubtful AI was currently capable of providing the same kind of tour experience as a human. 'I'm not opposed to innovation and stuff, and you know, going forward with different new ideas, but at the same time I would be very surprised if [AI] could do the same thing that a person can do,' he said. 'I'm interested in the idea of it, and you know, no one ever thought Deep Blue, for example, was ever going to beat Garry Kasparov with AI chess bots or something, but now we know AI is very, very strong, so in that sense it's good. 'In another sense, I think people want something that is an experience. It's always about making an experience for someone, and if the AI can do that, great. 'But I think there's a lot more to tour guiding than just giving people the facts of what you're talking about, because it's how you put the facts together and how you tell the story'. So much for Dublin slang. He keeps calling things awesome. Why not deadly? Heading around Dublin with Bland Brendan as company, it's hard not to agree. The AI guide definitely leans more on the artificial side of things than the intelligence. For instance, he correctly says that the old name for O'Connell Street is Drogheda Street but then pronounces it 'Dro-geeda'. And so much for Dublin slang. He keeps calling things awesome. Why not deadly? The more you scratch, the more paper-thin Brendan's persona appears. He will simply repeat the same information verbatim each time you click on an individual city landmark. One of the defining traits of AI is that it comes up with slightly different phrasings and sentences each time you speak to it – that's what makes it appear intelligent. Otherwise, it's a glorified Fisher-Price telephone that says a phrase when you press a button. So, is this simply a toy, crafted by tech bros that want to inject AI into your toaster? In fairness, it's not. Brendan definitely does a convincing Dublin accent and sounds like a local for much of his dialogue, which I'm not sure has been done before using AI. Also, the app is free of charge, so maybe I'm being too harsh. It offers a unique experience, like getting your dinner from a vending machine would. But vending machines have their place – sometimes all you want is a Kinder Bueno or a Fulfil bar. I can imagine a scenario where Brendan is all you need to get a quick overview of the city, if you're tight on time or just curious about one specific spot (and you haven't heard of Google). If you can get past the stilted Dublin dialogue and misaligned teeth, there's a reasonably interesting proposition here. For no money at all, you can see Dublin in a way quite unlike any other, so try it out and see what you think. After all, sometimes even adults enjoy Fisher-Price toys.

Lucy Kennedy set to hosted by Caitlyn Jenner in new TV series

Instagram post sees Kennedy let slip the identity of her big-name guest for the new Living With series Lucy Kennedy has let the cat out of the bag as to who her biggest guest will be on her at-home-with-the-stars TV series – Keeping Up With The Kardashians' Caitlyn Jenner. Not only did Lucy confide in friends about the mystery celeb she spent time with in Los Angeles a couple of weeks ago, but she also hinted at the location by posting a picture of a swimming pool on her Instagram stories. A reverse image search of the pool shows it's in Caitlyn's Malibu mansion. The pair first met when they both attended the Benefit Awards in Dublin in 2018, where Caitlyn received the Beauty Icon Award and Lucy was named Best Female TV Star. The Irish presenter has since spent the past several years trying to persuade Caitlyn to take part in her 'Living With Lucy' show and was thrilled earlier this year to finally get the go-ahead. Caitlyn with the Kardashian clan Caitlyn now lives in a €3m mansion in the foothills of the mountains in Malibu on the northern outskirts of LA. She first found fame as Bruce Jenner, who won the decathlon at the Olympic Games in Montreal in 1976. Married three times, Jenner's most famous relationship was with Kris Kardashian. The couple were married from 1991 to 2015. The couple's children together include Kylie and Kendall, while Caitlyn's step-children are Kim and Khloe. she also has 23 grandkids. In an American TV interview with Diane Sawyer in April 2015, Jenner came out as a trans woman, saying that she had dealt with gender dysphoria since her youth and that, 'for all intents and purposes, I'm a woman'. Jenner wore women's clothing for many years and took hormone replacement therapy but stopped after her romance with Kris Kardashian became more serious, leading to their marriage. Lucy's story from Insta Caitlyn said in 2015 that she has never been sexually attracted to men, but always to women, and that, given the difficulty that many people have understanding the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity, she would identify as asexual for the time being. She underwent cosmetic procedures and completed gender-affirming surgery in January 2017. The star took part in 2019's Celebrity Big Brother, part of a cast that included Kirstie Alley, Ryan Thomas, and Roxanne Pallett. She is a fervent supporter of the Republican party in the United States and once tried to run for Governor of California. The most recent series of Living With Lucy was screened last year and guests included former model turned businesswoman Katie Price, aka Jordan, RTÉ sports presenter and Dancing With The Stars favourite Des Cahill, Coronation Street legend Simon Gregson (Steve McDonald), Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby, Dublin comedian Andrew Maxwell and former Millwall and Ireland footballer turned RTÉ soccer pundit Richard Sadlier. Living With Lucy first aired in 2008 and the premise of the show is that Kennedy spends a weekend with a celebrity in their home or a favourite location of theirs. Lucy and Caitlyn News in 90 Seconds - June 22nd The first three series series were screened on RTÉ and featured Jade Goody, Samantha Mumba, Brian McFadden, David Norris, Calum Best and Dáithí Ó Sé. The second series included Shane Lynch, Don Baker, Sonia O'Sullivan and Adele King. For series three, Lucy moved in with David Gest, Simon Delaney, Derek Acorah, Jermaine Jackson, Vanessa Feltz and Crystal Swing. After finishing its run on RTÉ in 2010, TV3 (now Virgin Media) started screening the series in 2016, with six seasons in consecutive years bar a break during Covid. Her 2016 season featured Kerry Katona, Al Porter, Jedward, Brendan Grace, Finbar Furey and Shane Long. For her next series she visited Davy Fitzgerald, Katie Hopkins, Michael-Healy Rae, Daniella Westbrook, Dickie Rock and Sarah Harding. Then in 2018 she hung out with Christy Dignam, Nathan Carter, Gemma Collins, Kellie Maloney and Ivan Yates. Among those who participated in 2019 were Gráinne Seoige, John Connors, Nadine Coyle, Barry Keoghan and Deirdre O'Kane. Due to Covid and lockdowns the 2020 season had Lucy hosting celebs in a hired cottage in Co Meath. Those who stayed with her there included Paul McGrath, Greg O'Shea, Amy Huberman, Lynn Ruane, Ian Dempsey & Mario Rosenstock, and repeat guest Adele King (Twink). The 2021 series featured Pat Spillane, Rachel Allen, Hughie Maughan, Paul Gascoigne, Michelle Heaton and Rory O'Neill (Panti). Six of Lucy's guests have since sadly died — Jade Goody, Sarah Harding, Brendan Grace, David Gest, Christy Dignam and Dickie Rock. Lucy (49) previously told the Sunday World that the deaths of Jade and Sarah in particular struck a chord with her. 'Both so young,' she reflected. 'I lived with Jade Goody six months before she was diagnosed. I remember I was talking to her about going into the Big Brother house in India and she asked my advice and I said 'Actually, I wouldn't'. 'She went into the house and that's where she found out she had the cancer 'Poor Sarah. It was a few years later I lived with her. Young women. It's so strange. I don't know why, but I always assume that when its someone who's well known they can get the best treatment and have access to the best surgeons and miracles can happen. But the sad reality is it doesn't matter who you are or what you have — unfortunately sometimes cancer just wins.'
