The Fortune Hotel viewers point out Louie has already been on another reality TV show

ITV launched a brand new reality show, The Fortune Hotel, on Monday evening (May 13) that is set to rival BBC One show The Traitors. Ten pairs were flown out to Grenada in the Caribbean for the new series, in which they must swap suitcases in a bid to scoop a £250,000 prize, and viewers instantly recognised one contestant.

When the contestants arrived at 'The Fortune Hotel’ they were given an all-important briefcase, inside one case is the ultimate jackpot of £250,000 in cash. However, eight of the cases are empty and one contains the dreaded Early Checkout Card – whichever pair is left holding that case at the end of each show will see their stay brought to a dramatic and premature end.

Every day sees the contestants have the chance to try to uncover who has which case through playing compelling challenges. As the ‘Whogotit’ mystery ramps up for the hotel guests, viewers at home will remain in the know throughout and witness all of their plans and strategies playing out.

Best friends Chloe and Louie had the best time staying at The Fortune Hotel, even noting it was the most memorable experience during filming.

Chloe said: "Living in the hotel, no holiday will ever compare, it was out of this world. Even during the filming, I just kept thinking to myself this is the life!". Louie echoed this and added that exploring the Caribbean and meeting the locals was "incredible".

But viewers instantly recognised Louie from another reality show. Earlier this year, Louie starred in the E4 series Josh Must Win alongside Nick Grimshaw, Amber Rose Gill, Pete Wicks and Vicky.

Taking to X, one Fortune Hotel viewer wrote: "#TheFortuneHotel Louie was a contestant on Josh The Under Dog on E4". A second stated: "#Louie looks familiar was he in #JoshMustWin? #TheFortuneHotel".

A third added: "#TheFortuneHotel how many shows has this Louie character signed on for? Only last month he picked up money on Josh must win on E4, now this show. Most people can't get on one show let alone two in two months."

"What’s Louie putting on these reality tv applications (or better still who is his agent?!) #TheFortuneHotel", asked on viewer. "#TheFortuneHotel Louie was a contestant on josh the under dog on E4", stated another.

"Watching the Fortune Hotel on @ITV and who is one of the contestants Louie from #joshmustwin lol the researchers didn't do very well! Lol #reusedcontestants #thefortunehotel", exclaimed one person. While another stated: I'm screaming, not Louie from Josh Must Win #TheFortuneHotel."

The Fortune Hotel begins on Monday, May 13 on ITV 1 and ITV X at 9pm. There will be eight 60-minute episodes in total. The following episodes will be shown on consecutive nights in the same time slot.
