The series started in December 2020, and since then, there have been eight episodes in the first season, while a second one is in the making and will premier next year.
Recently, a teaser video was released by the streaming giant which showed the new love interests of season 2. Sex Education starrer Simone Ashley will play the role of Kate, who seems to have an enemies-to-lovers relationship with Anthony, played by Jonathan Bailey.
