Abbie Chatfield, known for her appearances on The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise, is set to host Australia’s newest reality dating show, FBoy Island.
The Binge original series, based on a popular US format, is making waves with its unique and entertaining premise. Discover everything you need to know about Abbie Chatfield‘s FBoy Island, including the show’s concept, premiere date, and where to watch.
Abbie has promised the concept will be refreshing and unlike any other dating show fans are used to.
The Concept: Love or Money?
FBoy Island follows three women on their quest for love among a group of men, half of whom claim to be “nice guys,” while the others are self-proclaimed “f*** boys.” The challenge for the women is to determine which men are genuinely seeking love and which are only in it for a cash prize. This intriguing setup promises plenty of drama, laughter, and unexpected twists.
Meet the Women Seeking Love
The three women participating in the show are 26-year-old occupational therapist Molly O’Halloran, 26-year-old professional DJ Sophie Blackley, and 21-year-old model Ziara Rae. All three knew the show’s concept before applying and were drawn to the opportunity for various reasons. Ziara, in particular, cited Chatfield’s strong feminist stance and openness about sex and sexuality as significant factors in her decision to join.

A Dramedy: Parody Meets Reality TV
Caroline Swift, head of entertainment at Warner Bros. in Australia, described FBoy Island as a “dramedy” or “parody of the genre.” The show will have an MA rating due to its humour and treatment of mature themes. While the women reported that most of the men had been polite and respectful during filming, they admitted they were having difficulty identifying the nice guys from the f*** boys.
Strategy and Intentions
Sophie shared her strategy for determining who was there just for the cash, which involved asking a series of questions and then repeating them at a later time to see if the answers matched up. Molly, on the other hand, expressed her intention to “hopefully find love” while also calling out bad behaviour.
“F Boys” and Nice Guys: What Happens Next?
When eliminated, the “F boys” will be sent to “Limbro,” a tropical version of Alcatraz, where Chatfield will attempt to “rehabilitate” them in comedic scenes. The nice guys will be treated to the “Nice Guy Grotto.” All contestants will return for a penultimate episode to surprise the three women and their final two men, potentially swaying their decisions.
Premiere Date and Where to Watch
FBoy Island Australia is set to premiere on May 29 and will be available to stream exclusively on Binge. With Abbie Chatfield leading the way, this reality dating show promises to be an entertaining and provocative addition to the genre.
