These international soccer stars want to score on the field and in the game of love. Peacock’s newest dating series Love Undercover will feature five soccer players looking for love while keeping a huge secret.
Former English Premier League stars Jamie O’Hara, Ryan Babel, Lloyd Jones, Marco Fabián, and Sebastián Fassi will bring their love lives center stage in Love Undercover. They travel to the United States to find a special someone, but they won’t be revealing their mega-star identities.
The men will be set up with single American girls who have no idea that they’re rich and famous. Love’s complicated enough, and keeping secrets inevitably causes drama. At the end of their stay, the soccer stars must reveal who they really are. If they do forge a romantic connection, they’ll invite their special someones back to their home countries and test their relationship on the global stage.
As Jamie says in the trailer, which you can watch above, things get messy throughout the season. “That’s Lionel Messi right there,” he jokes.
The first three episodes will premiere May 9. The show will continue to release three episodes per week the following two weeks, with the finale airing on May 23. Love Undercover features comedian and podcaster Jared Freid as the voiceover.
