She seeks a regular guy who will get to know her for herself, and not her TV persona. Gina had been married for 25 years and being a TV personality, her marital problems and divorce were not exactly a secret. Like other dating reality TV shows, Gina has to face the challenges which arise from that dates and she has to face the challenges that will come up from living with a house full of women (as a reality TV star).

Nakita McGraw, 37, is a mother who truly seems to have a lower level of self-esteem. She sits alone at the mixer. Sometimes she has trouble embracing her full figure and loving herself.

To Rome For Love, Ashley Russell

Ashley Russell was married to a pro-football player before joining the show.  From the outside, she had THE life the many women wish they had, a handsome husband, two sweet daughters, a more than comfortable lifestyle. That’s the outside appearance. She dealt with infidelity and a broken heart in real life. After her divorce, and after getting some work done on her body to lift her spirits, she was ready to get back into the game.

To Rome for Love, Mercedes Young

Finally, there is Mercedes Young, 25, the youngest woman on the show, but she’s certainly not naive! She believes that most men are cheaters, and she has a long list of must-have characteristics for any man who tries to step to her.
