Estate agent Danielle Kelly, 33, will star in the second season, alongside 29 other ‘singles’ (15 men and 15 women, in total).
Danielle grew up on the Island, attending both Swanmore Middle School and Ryde High School.
Although she is now living in Portsmouth, she said she is always back visiting family and friends.

A big fan of the show, Danielle was approached to take part but did not think she would be selected.
Speaking to the County Press, she said: “I love the show and I really loved the concept.
“Clearly my type hasn’t worked out in the past. [I wanted] to get some help and get to know someone based on their personality and character.”
Danielle has been cheated on several times in past relationships, leading to some serious heartbreak, a description for the programme said.
She is described by the show as an ‘open book’, and someone who tends to take what others tell her at face value.
It reads: “In the pods, she doesn’t plan on pursuing her usual type — loud guys who call attention to themselves.
“Instead, she’s looking for someone more low-key, who’s reserved and hardworking.
“But most of all, finding a partner with ambition is extremely important to Danielle, especially since her own property business is booming.”
Season two of Love is Blind UK, a spin-off to the original Netflix series, airs on the streaming platform on Wednesday (August 13).
Presented by Matt and Emma Willis, the series will be broadcast over the course of three weeks.
