**Season 1** of Love Desert started around the **9th June 2020**, with the finale being around the **18th June 2020**. The crowned winners of this season are Chloe Brady and Kenna Oglesby, while Chad Bent-Zeng was voted the judge-favourite at the finale.

This season, alongside seasons 2 and 3, were not filmed, and therefore the history for these seasons isn't as well-recorded.

This season is best known for its conventional "Love Island"-type cast, where the great majority of the sims look model-esque but lack personality.

Several members of this cast ended up returning to compete on a later season. Max and Xander returned to Season 3. Mariah, Chad, Brenden, Jamie, Kamara and Papa Mario all competed on All-Stars 1. Noelle competed on All-Stars 2.

Mariah Wang, who placed 3rd in the finale of this season, was crowned the winner of All-Stars 1 with Season 3 contestant Bella Vu.

The majority of sims this season were created by judge Hannah, who created 11 of the 21-member cast. Jude created 3, Holly created 3, Ruoxi created 2, while 2 contestants were generated by the game (Jairo and Gianna).

## Contestants

### Episode 1 Contestants

This group of 10 entered at the very beginning of Season 1. Nine of the ten contestants were Hannah-made, the only outsider to the trend being Jude-made Chad:

### Episode 1 Bombshells

The first group of 6 bombshells entered before the first elimination, as the premiere group didn't have their own voting round before the bombshells arrived. The first ever Holly-made sims appeared here. It's worth noting that Gianna entered shortly before the other 5, as she entered the villa as a firefighter rather than a bombshell:
