Age: 32Occupation: Housewife and make-up tatooist Former model, sociable, straight talking and stylishHow long have you been in Marbella?I've lived in Marbella for about four years. I've got two little girls but I consider myself the 'Marbie Barbie' of the bunch. I'm very glamorous and fun! I think I am outgoing. Cassie would describe me as a snob.What do you do for a living?I'm a housewife. My husband is a businessman, he's got businesses in Marbella and Dubai. He has a nightclub in Dubai that he's planning to open a franchise of in London as well. He's also got some bars and restaurants.Have you got the best lifestyle out here?Totally, I'm really happy. I love to be pampered, I go shopping all the time, have lunches with my friends, we go out on boats. It's all about the glam life with me.Will people watching be jealous of your lifestyle?I think there's a lot of jealousy in Marbella anyway. When they watch us they will definitely be jealous, it's human nature for girls to be bitchy. When you see someone doing well it's hard not to be jealous. You can say what you like to me, I am an open and honest person, if you want to scrutinise me then go ahead because I really don't care. I'm having a fabulous time and I don't care what you may think about me.Do you think they will criticise you for living off your rich husband?I think people will hate me. I was never going to have a poor husband, I wouldn't want one. I'm honest about it. I've always dated celebrities and I've got used to a certain lifestyle. I wouldn't want to not live this lifestyle, no way.What's the most expensive thing you have bought?Probably my car, I bought myself a Porsche. I've also got lots of jewellery too which is really expensive. I like the finer things in life, I don't want anything cheap or nasty.Why did you want to do this show?I'm doing it with Cassie who is my best friend and I thought it would be a fun experience.You've done a few kiss and tells on the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Gary Lucy and Calum Best...Yeah, but that feels like a life time ago. With the whole Leonardo thing I was young, in Paris and having fun. Who cares? I was having a great time and there are worst things to do than Leonardo, let's face it!Why so many kiss and tells?Well with Leonardo it was about the money. I was in Paris and they had all the pap pictures anyway so it was obviously going to come out. I don't regret it, or the ones on Calum and Gary. I don't care if that all comes out again, it's out there anyway.What do you think they will make of you doing this show?I hope they will be happy for me. I've stayed in touch with Calum so I am sure he will be happy. I'm sure Leonardo has forgotten me already! I was a page three girl so I can't have regrets.What does your husband think about your past?I'm very different to the girl I was back then. Now I am a mum and a wife. Back then I was young, single and having fun, he understands that. I say when you're young you should just go for it and have fun, get it out of your system so that when you get married and have kids you don't do it anymore. Have a blow out when you are young enough to do it.Are you settled now then?I'm definitely settled but I still have a wild side. I'm loving doing all the photo-shoots that come with being on the show and in terms of partying, it's not really what I do now because I have to get up and do the school run.What can fans expect to see of you in the show?You'll see a lot of glamorous stuff because we lead a glamorous lifestyle, but there's also a lot of drama, bitchiness and the catfights that go with it. I had a big fall out with Felicity. She found out what she thought was a bit of gossip and tried to spread it round Marbella. I don't know why, maybe she wanted to bring me down. You can pick on me all you want and slag me off but if affects my family then you've crossed a line. I'm a lioness when it comes to my family. Well, I'm only little so maybe I'm more like a chihuahua with a big bite.Are there different social circles in Marbella?Yeah, you've got the millionaires and then it goes down to the normal working people. I'm in the millionaire's circle. There's definitely a divide between those on the front street and those who go to the back street.What does your husband think about you doing this?He didn't want me to do it and won't be in it at all. He's really private but he didn't have any choice, I wanted to do it. Whatever I want, I get.How will this show compare with other reality shows like TOWIE and Made In Chelsea?I think the difference is that with this show you have loads of different groups of people. You've got the housewives, the playboys, the PR guys and the workers. It's a mixture of all the other reality shows rolled into one. Then there's the sunshine so we are all parading around in our little bikinis. In Essex you've just got rain! Our show will be the best, I'm on it!

Age: 19 □Occupation: Features editor for Marbella Rocks Magazine Fun & flirty, Alex is the newest edition to Marbella□How would you describe yourself?□Well I am 19, so I am the baby of the cast. I moved out here in February. I think I am bubbly and fun, at least my friends think I am. I forced my friend Jordan to come out here for the summer because I wanted to have some fun.□Are you single?□I am right now, but boys are a massive no go area for me at the moment. Maybe in the future I will have a relationship but at the moment I just want to enjoy myself with the girls, go out and have a good 2time.□Why is Marbella better than Britain?□There's sun, sea and sangria - what more can you ask for? We hang out on the beach and have a good time.□Marbella has an image of being full of rich people, is that the case?□We're not but all our friends are millionaires so they help us get by. It's a good life. When me and Jordan moved out here we didn't know anyone so you have to put yourself out there and introduce yourself to people. We have ended up meeting friends for life.□What's an average day in Marbella like for you?□We get up about 1pm and head to the pool where we have lunch and then plan what we are going to do in the night. Each day seems to roll into one out here because there is so much to do. Every day we say we are going to have a quiet night and then there's an event somewhere. It's mad out here, you never want to miss out on an opportunity. It's like a non-stop holiday, I'm having the time of my life.□What's a night out in Marbella like then?□It's a bit like Essex, everyone wants to be better than everyone else. In Essex you go to Sugar Hut and everyone wants to have the biggest table and the most drinks. It's just the same out here... but the clubs are better.□What's the social scene like, is it bitchy?□I haven't experienced any of that. Me and Jordan came out here with a clean slate, we didn't know anyone and made friends out here. We've been very open minded so we haven't had any bitchiness from other people. We're just out here to have fun.Is there any scandal?You'll have to tune in to find out! Put it this way, me and Jordan fall in love - a lot! There is a lot of boy scandal.How would you compare this show to TOWIE or Made In Chelsea?I think our show is a lot more fun and we're not scared to make a fool of ourselves. It's different from Made In Chelsea because we've got such a spectrum of different people. We have people who are just as posh and rich as those in Chelsea but then you've got the likes of me and Jordan, Essex girls in white stilletos drinking wine mixed with lemonade.Are you ready for the fame that this show could bring you?My ex-boyfriend is best mates with Sam Faiers so I have picked up a lot from her. I think with the whole fame thing, for me, it's exciting. I have always wanted to get into TV presenting so this is something I have always taken to.

Age: 23 Occup: Head of Sales Marbella Rocks Magazine Essex girl Jordan, who joins BFF Alex, says 'drama just follows me'Your best mate Alex persuaded you to come out to Marbella, did it take much convincing? It did actually, it took a couple of months. She moved here in February and then hounded me to come out here too. She would call my work phone every day trying to get me to come out. I'd look at my phone and she would be face-timing me from the beach. In the end I thought it would be great to be out here for the summer having fun with my friend. It's an amazing opportunity.□If you are not rich, how do you fund your lifestyle?I basically gave up everything to come out here. I sold my car and started saving. I stopped my Essex lifestyle to start saving for my Marbella summer. I had quite a bit of money saved from my job and then I sold my car, it's slowly running out though.What's the most your group of mates have spent on a night out?We don't get to look at the bill, it's taken care of. We never pick them up so I have no idea. I did offer to pay once and they said no. We do other things, we boost the morale in the group and make the men look pretty.□Is there any scandal?□I have a lot of boy drama. I wear my heart on my sleeve and fall in love really easily. The men are massive players out here. They reel you in as friends and then you fall in love. We always say that drama follows us and it's true.□Are you ready for the fame that this show could bring you?□I'm best friends with Ferne from TOWIE so I have seen what a show like this can bring. I can see the good and the bad. Drama follows me everywhere, I'm always told that people think a camera crew should follow me around. So I've been waiting for the fame, bring it on.Has Ferne given you any advice about being on the show?I have had some very good advice from Ferne. She's given advice on what to do in my personal life and work. She's very vocal, as everyone knows, so she's been telling me what to do. It's amazing to have someone like her, who has been through it all herself, who can point me in the right direction. When it comes to my love life she told me to do the opposite of everything I am doing! She's trying to drill into me what's right and wrong.Do you have any celebrity connections?I kissed Frankie Cocozza once! It was in Sugar Hut. He swept me off my feet, it's all the tattoos and the hair! I know all the girls from TOWIE, Lucy and Sam in particular because I went to school with them.

Age: 28Occupation: 3⁄4 Housewife, 1⁄4 Beautician, glamorous & sociable, Cassie grew up in Marbs and has 'no edit button'What brought you to Marbella?My parents are Scottish but I have lived here since I was a baby so I am probably the longest in the cast to have lived in Marbella.What type of person are you?I think I am the joker of the group. If there's a serious situation I can't take it seriously, I have to laugh it off. If there's any awkwardness then I have to crack an inappropriate joke which always gets me in trouble.What do you do for a living?I'm a housewife but I do work a couple of days a week. I'm semi-retired. My partner works on the oil rigs in South Africa, so he's away for a certain amount of time. It's tough, but it's nice at the same time because when he's home we have four weeks of intense time together and then he's away working, so we make the most of our time.Do you think they will criticise you for living off your rich husband?It's not like both Natalie, my friend here, and I haven't worked, we have in the past but now we don't have to. And anyway, we're 28 and 32, we're exhausted.Have you got the best lifestyle out here?Oh definitely, it's the best. The champagne is always flowing. We don't spray it, we drink it! The spray parties are good though.What's your most extravagant purchase?Well, I've got a Range Rover or maybe my watch, I bought myself a Cartier, I don't want to say how much it was, but it was expensive. I do love a little bargain though.Why did you want to do this show?It sounded like fun and I grew up here so if anyone is going to do it it's got to be someone who has grown up here. I have seen Marbella from all different sides, I went to school here, I've worked here and now I'm enjoying life here. I have Natalie, my best friend, by my side and we laugh every single day.Do you and Natalie get yourself in trouble?I try and egg her on all the time. She has two glasses of champagne and she's drunk so I'll be dragging her around the bars. I'm definitely a bad influence on her. We don't take ourselves seriously, we love to have a laugh.Natalie has had a few bust-ups with other cast including Felicity, do you defend her?I'm a very loyal friend and very defensive. When people say or do anything to me it's like water off a duck's back. But if somebody does something to my friend it really does affect me. We have both got each other's back, it's so good that we are doing this show together. In Marbella you can have enough enemies, you don't need more. I think with Felicity it might have been her way of trying to get into a different social circle, she thought spreading gossip would help.Will fans see your partner in the show?He's popped in for our engagement party and our wedding planning meeting. He had no choice, I dragged him in!

Age: 28Occup: Owner of Marbella Dress Company Former Virgin flight agendant who's a magnet for dramaHow would you describe yourself?I'm a single mum of a six year old boy and I've lived over here for two years. I run the Marbella dress company.What do you make of Marbella?I was brought out here by my ex boyfriend, so whether I would necessarily have moved here on my own, I don't know. But I set up my life here and my business here. I think it's great being in Marbella when you are bringing up a child at a young age, at home he couldn't play outside as much as he does here.Was your ex a millionaire?Yeah, he was a wealthy businessman. I was an air hostess and we met on the way to Vegas. He was dressed as Elvis. He had recently cancelled his wedding but decided to go on the stag anyway. I met him on the flight. I moved to Gibraltar originally because that's where he was. We bought a place in Marbella for the weekends but then decided it would be better to live here because of my son.How does it feel not having all that money now that you are on your own?It's very different, it was a shock to the system. The break-up was tough, it was out of the blue and a bit of a shock. I was homeless overnight, going from driving god knows what car and having money to spend on whatever I wanted to having nothing. I fought for my self-worth, I wanted to provide for my son because he had just lost his father figure. I didn't want to take him away from his friends so I have worked as hard as I can to make it work here. It's not been easy but I am proud of myself for doing that.What's an average day like for you?My lifestyle is very different. It's very easy to get carried away, especially if you meet a friend for lunch and the cava is flowing. The Spanish see drinking very differently to us, for example Costa and McDonalds sell alcohol out here. On an average day I take my son to school and then try and fit a gym session in. I work on my website and if I am having a meeting then there will be a glass of cava involved.Is Marbella dripping with money?I'm not now but some people in the show are. There is mass wealth here in terms of concentrated wealth. You get lots of international people here and they all have money. That's why it appears to be so wealthy because all the rich people from all over Europe, Russia and the Far East all come here. Those who stay all year round, it's a bit different.How will this show compare to TOWIE or Made In Chelsea?It's very different, we've got age ranges from 18 to 54. We're all different, from different backgrounds, different levels of wealth and education. I think it will deliver a different show.TOWIE propelled the likes of Mark Wright and Sam Faiers into the celebrity world, do you want to be famous?I just want to provide for my son. I've gone from having money to having nothing, so I just want to make sure we are safe and secure and never be put in another position like the one I was in before.Will fans be seeing some catfights on the show?You will be seeing a lot of catfights on the show. I've had a few disagreements, especially with Natalie Richardson. We're all from different backgrounds and deal with things differently. I have caused some upset because I googled something about her and sent it to someone else, she found out down the line and it all kicked off. It's not been an ideal situation and I do feel bad for what I have done but whether or not my apology has been taken on board is another matter.What's the most extravagant thing you have bought?When I was with my ex? A private jet, he was very flashy.Do you have any love drama on the show?Well, at the moment I'm single and I can't meet a nice man here so I don't think it's ever going to happen! You have the party scene, there's the workers and then the rich mums at home. There's something for everyone. It's a cauldron of chaos.

I fought for my self-worth, I wanted to provide for my son because he had just lost his father figure. I didn't want to take him away from his friends so I have worked as hard as I can to make it work here. It's not been easy but I am proud of myself for doing that.What's an average day like for you?My lifestyle is very different. It's very easy to get carried away, especially if you meet a friend for lunch and the cava is flowing. The Spanish see drinking very differently to us, for example Costa and McDonalds sell alcohol out here. On an average day I take my son to school and then try and fit a gym session in. I work on my website and if I am having a meeting then there will be a glass of cava involved.Is Marbella dripping with money?I'm not now but some people in the show are. There is mass wealth here in terms of concentrated wealth. You get lots of international people here and they all have money. That's why it appears to be so wealthy because all the rich people from all over Europe, Russia and the Far East all come here. Those who stay all year round, it's a bit different.How will this show compare to TOWIE or Made In Chelsea?It's very different, we've got age ranges from 18 to 54. We're all different, from different backgrounds, different levels of wealth and education. I think it will deliver a different show.TOWIE propelled the likes of Mark Wright and Sam Faiers into the celebrity world, do you want to be famous?I just want to provide for my son. I've gone from having money to having nothing, so I just want to make sure we are safe and secure and never be put in another position like the one I was in before.Will fans be seeing some catfights on the show?You will be seeing a lot of catfights on the show. I've had a few disagreements, especially with Natalie Richardson. We're all from different backgrounds and deal with things differently. I have caused some upset because I googled something about her and sent it to someone else, she found out down the line and it all kicked off. It's not been an ideal situation and I do feel bad for what I have done but whether or not my apology has been taken on board is another matter.What's the most extravagant thing you have bought?When I was with my ex? A private jet, he was very flashy.Do you have any love drama on the show?Well, at the moment I'm single and I can't meet a nice man here so I don't think it's ever going to happen! You have the party scene, there's the workers and then the rich mums at home. There's something for everyone. It's a cauldron of chaos
Age: 31Occup: Fitness Trainer / Journalist Ambitious, fun and with a figure to die forWhat do you do in Marbella?I've been here since September and have been doing fitness. I write a lot of blogs about fitness and I also train people. I do train celebrities but I'm not allowed to say who because a lot of them are my friends. But I also train special cases, for example, I've worked with a guy who if I didn't help him get into shape then he was going to die. That's what gives me more job satisfaction than someone else who just wants to lose weight to look good. To be able to turn someone's life around where it can potentially save their life is a worthwhile thing to do and something that rights all my wrongs when I go out and have too many drinks!What's an average day like for you?I'm working on my fitness website so I am doing a lot of filming for that. I combine the mental with the physical at the moment but I do normally finish the day with a glass of cava! It's a lot harder not to drink and smoke here than it is in the UK. When you're driving home in Britain the prospect of stopping off at the pub is not very appealing, it's dark and grey, so you go home and watch the soaps. Here you just want to be outside in the sunshine. So most days do involve some sort of social situation.Do you like the fact people flash their cash in Marbella?No, I can't stand it. To me money is not that important. Obviously we would all like more so we can buy a Ferrari or a mansion but I have never been attracted to wealthy men because I tend to find them arrogant. But it makes the place nicer because let's face it, if there wasn't the money here to be spend then we wouldn't be able to come and enjoy these nice places because we'd be in Southend on Sea. Their cash injection does enhance the area.What surgery have you had?□The only money I really spend is on boob jobs, I've had four. I had one while I was on the show and now I want a fifth. I've been told that I am heading for a 'Katie Price' and will end up with no boobs.Are you looking for love?No, I've got a boyfriend called Jake but he's not in the show. I love him to bits.

Age: 54Occup: Runs Linekers Group, Independent Lina is referred to as 'Mummy Marbella'What brings you to Marbella?I've been here 11 years. I had been coming here for holidays and then one year I decided to take six months off, came here and never left. I consider myself to be 'Mummy Marbella'. I'm the marketing director of Linekers Group which is eight businesses in Marbella. I also look after all the stag and hen parties that come over here, we've got 40,000 people coming this year so I am quite a busy lady.Why is Marbella better than Britain?Hello! The sun of course. It's a lifestyle change over here. In England everyone is rushing around from one place to the next, over here you have to get used to the Spanish way of life which is very slow. You meet different people every single week, Marbella is so diverse.Marbella is known to be full of rich people, are you rich?No, I earn a good living. But to live here you do need to have a certain level of wealth because everything is so expensive. I think this series will show the diversity of Marbella because not everybody is dripping with wealth. Yes there is a lot of wealth here but there are a lot of normal people here as well, whatever normal may be.

I think this series will show the diversity of Marbella because not everybody is dripping with wealth. Yes there is a lot of wealth here but there are a lot of normal people here as well, whatever normal may be.<p{Is there a divide between the super rich and the rest?No, this is why I love Marbella because I don't think there is a divide between the super rich and everyone else. I know people the same as me and I know extremely wealthy people as well and we all all go to the same places. There's no age or money barriers here.Will there be a lot of bitching?I'm mainly with Suzy on the show and we're probably all about the comedy. We bounce off each other. I haven't had any big rows with anyone yet. I'm very honest and I think sometimes people won't like my honesty so when they see it they may not like it. I don't hold back. People are going to either absolutely love me or absolutely hate me when they watch this show.Will we see you in any catfights?There's been nothing yet but if it comes to me then I'll deal with it. I'm extremely fierce. I can annihilate people with words, I don't need to get physical. I can destroy them with words because people who scream and shout are usually not that clever. It's better to listen to them and then destroy them.How's your love life?I don't have any love. What am I looking for? A man with a pulse and their own teeth! They must have their own teeth, I couldn't stand being with someone who has to take their teeth out. I just want someone normal, I'm self sufficient so I don't need anyone to look after me. Wealth doesn't come into it, that said, I don't want a pauper who I have to keep. They have to have a job, be single, around my age and have their own teeth
Age: 34Occup: Works part-2me at Poolside, aspiring singer Flirty, ditzy and a hopeless romanticWhat brings you to Marbella?I've been in Marbella 12 years, I came over as a lap dancer. I met the father of my daughter Lily. I fell pregnant a year later so I stayed over here. We split up four years ago but we have stayed really good friends. I worked for Lina for a bit but I got suspended twice because I turned up drunk.Are you wealthy?I'm lucky because Lily's father looks after my house and pays all the bills so the only thing I need to earn money for is hair, make-up, false eyelashes and clothes.What's an average day like for you?It usually involves the beach or going to one of the pools to sunbathe. I'll have lunch with my friends and we plan what we're going to do in the evenings. I go out with Lina, we'll go to the beach at say 2 o'clock and the drinks start flowing, we call them our wonky Wednesdays. We have been known to end up in a club at 5 0'clock in the morning still wearing the same clothes from the day. We think we look amazing.Is there much romance in the show?Well, I'm more interested in finding Lina a man. I'm like Cilla Black! But now everyone in the cast has jumped on the bandwagon and there's a bit of a bet going on who can find her a man. It's getting really competitive. But there's not enough hours in the day to find her the right man.Do you have any celebrity connections?I have quite a few. I'm friends with Alesha Dixon, I know her through my ex boyfriend. I'm really good friends with Natasha Hamilton, I went to her last wedding. I know a few of the Hollyoaks lot like Jennifer Metcalfe. They love the place, it's a frat resort for them to come and let their hair down.Do you think the super rich residents think the tone of Marbella has been ruined?I think you have a bit of everything in Marbella and there's something for everyone. Yes there are people who will come and drop ten grand on a table but there are some who have paid 50 euros. You can have it all, you can have your millionaires with their boats and then the people who like looking at them.Do you think even more people will come once they have seen the show?Absolutely, TOWIE had an impact so I'm sure this will too. There is so much diversity in the cast, so people can relate to at least one of us and will want to experience what we do.Will we see you having any love drama?I'm seeing someone, it's only been about four months but it's going ok. He's not on the show though, so we'll see what happens.What about catfights?Well, I'm not very good with words and if someone starts having a go at me I just start crying. I've got Lina though, she defends me.

Age: 21OccupaRon: Interior designer, model, VIP concierge Brains as well as beauty, Lola has previously been studying in NYCHow have you ended up in Marbella?I grew up here, I've been here for most of my life. I went to New York to study and then I travelled around for a bit to find a destination where I can settle down. I came back to Marbella because my family live here and I think it's one of the best places in the world to live.What type of person are you?I'm a very outgoing, energetic person. I love to travel because I hate routine. I think I am a friendly person.Is Marbella full of rich people?Marbella is a very wealthy place. But if you go to the Old Town then it's a very different story, that's the actual Marbella. It's the traditional side of the town. But anything you want to do here you can. It's like a city in the size of a town.Is there a divide between the wealthy and the workers?Yeah but we all do blend together. I think it's more a divide between the traditional people here, who can't speak English, and the rest. If you live in Marbella then you're likely to know everyone and go to the same places. The only difference is one spends £20,000 and the other £20.Are you wealthy?I am from a wealthy background. My dad works in real estate, that's been the family business throughout my life. I don't get hand-outs from my dad, I've been doing some modelling or hostessing at different places. I stand on my own two feet.Why did you agree to do this show?My ex is Adam, he's in the show. So I got in because of him but I thought it was very interesting. It's very hard to put my love life on display in a show like this because it does create tension.How are things between you and Adam?I think there are still feelings on both sides. It's just hard to be together, we have tried on and off many times but it's never really worked out so I decided it's better to break it off completely.Will there be a lot of tension between the two of you?Another guy came in, which Adam's not happy about, he's not even speaking to me right now. We had something in the past so there are a lot of fights. If I see him with another girl there's going to be tension. There will be a lot of arguments.Is there any chance you might get back together?Yeah, I'll never say never. In the future, if everything goes good, we probably will. As of now, we're not even speaking to each other, so we'll have to see. What I like about Adam is the way he acts with me, his personality. He's a very friendly guy and he cares about the small details, he likes to make every day count. What I don't like about him is that he has a crazy mind. He wants certain things that go with a certain lifestyle, but none of us are settled. He's more of a night time guy and I'm more of a day time girl so it's hard.What's an average day like for you?Well right now I don't have a job so it's a bit of a mess. I usually wake up, hang out with my family, go to see my friends, go to the gym. I go out at the weekends but I'd rather chill and watch a movie. I'm not really a big spender on nights out, I don't see the point of spending so much money. In Marbella I know all the promoters so wherever I go I get anything I want, I don't really ever spend that much money.
