Your ‘Temptation Island’ Guide to the Season 2 Singles Tempting the Couples
What To Know
- Season 2 of Temptation Island premieres April 10 on Netflix.
- The singles (aka tempters) include a diverse group of models, athletes, and former reality TV stars.
Temptation Island has a whole new group of couples headed to Hawaii for Season 2 on Netflix (Season 10 of the overall series), where they’ll be separated into two villas. As per usual, they’ll be in close quarters with 12 single men and women, who may or may not succeed in tempting them away from the partners they arrived with. They’ll party together and spend downtime together, and possibly even make them realize what they’re missing in their current relationships.
It’s no easy feat, but Netflix has found two dozen singles up to the task. While we wait to see if Summit Wallace and Kaylee Needham, Cole Mueller and Scarlett Bentley, Mikey Bivens and Sydney McGregor, and Shyanne Blankenship and Jack Mason make it off Temptation Island together, you can go ahead and get to know the men and women populating each villa. Below, Swooon has rounded up their Instagram accounts and all of the information we could find on them before Season 2 drops.

California native Zach has already shared a few BTS photos from Temptation Island. We couldn’t figure out much else about him from his social media, but he was part of a championship-winning water polo team in high school. We’ll have to wait and see if he wins someone’s heart in the villa.
Preston Viltz

Washington-born, Los Angeles-based Preston is a fitness coach and business owner. He’s the founder of NextCommit, a platform that uses AI to automate conversations with college coaches.
Preston also isn’t a stranger to Netflix reality TV. He was a contestant on Squid Game: The Challenge Season 1. He’s also got a competition background, having played college baseball for the University of Washington. He’s already teased some relationship drama on his Instagram Stories, so we’re looking forward to seeing if he strikes out in Temptation Island or hits a home run.

Kai was born in Hawaii, but he lives in Austin, Texas, now. He’s the CEO of Stone Systems, a company that helps contractors with marketing. Just ahead of the premiere, he reunited with some of his villa mates, per his Instagram, so it looks like some lasting friendships were formed at the very least!

Influencer Clint, who’s signed to Cannon Models, appears to have the largest social media following out of all the guys. “Cowboy hat shadow, ocean eyes… that’s usually where the trouble starts,” he teased on Instagram to promote Season 2.

Donny Aviles

Miami-based Donny, like Ethan, has pageant experience. He was named Mister Kentucky USA this year, so he’ll compete in July, too.
“A proud Nicaraguan-American, devoted man of faith, and dynamic model and TV personality, Donny brings heart, humility, and star power to the national stage,” Mister Kentucky USA wrote on Instagram. “Raised in Bowling Green [Kentucky] and shaped by a close-knit immigrant family, he learned early that success is built on discipline, gratitude, and love for others. A former championship athlete turned Miami-based talent, he now channels his passion for fitness, travel, and connection into inspiring those around him.”
Per his Instagram, Donny also teaches normal people how to get on TV and into modeling, so you know where to go if you want to try your hand at Temptation Island yourself.
