"This is honestly one of the best series I think we've ever done and there's so many reasons for that," Anna explained. "The cast are amazing. Our celebrities have really applied themselves to what the agency does.
"They've all come in with all their different dating challenges. They've worn their heart on their sleeve. They haven't been afraid to cry. They haven't been afraid to be open.
"They haven't been afraid to kick back and challenge Paul [Brunson] and I if they don't like what they hear."

Anna went on to reveal viewers will see some big success stories come away from the celebrity dating agency this year.
"I think what you will see, more than any series I think we've done, is such incredible progression from people that were coming in really needing some help," she teased. "And what we're most proud about is that we have really made some dating and relationship success with this series, and you will see who that is and how it all unfolds."
The relationship expert went on to say seeing her celebrity clients grow and find love is "the most rewarding part of the show".
"Every single one of our eight celebrities has the most enormous ups and downs, but a really positive journey on the whole," Anna explained. "It's really rewarding when you see the benefit of coaching and you're going to see that on this series."
