“We get to see more people have life-changing experiences. We have marital problems that get resolved. Friendships that have become stronger,” Roselyn says. “We have a girl that wants to be a princess and be catered to and not have to think too much about life and then realizes that she needs to believe in herself, which is a very important topic with young girls nowadays.”

When it comes to Elena and Javier’s relationship, romance is in the air. “I think he asks this woman out. He’s chasing her. She made it kind of difficult for him,” John told HollywoodLife. “He was the pursuer, so she was definitely apprehensive. But I think Javier once he knows what he wants, he goes after it. He’s continuing to pursue this one. We’re gonna explore that.”
Roselyn believes Elena is more than ready for love. “I was even surprised at how ready she is. She goes for it,” the actress revealed. “She opens her heart and things are going to happen… it’s going to be about family and discovery and acceptance and allowing the other person to be and be happy.”

Roselyn also admitted that one of the “biggest” challenges for Elena in season 2 is “trying to maintain this relationship, even though the island is going to throw some curveballs and exploring what we want out of the relationship… I think the chemistry is undeniable, so we get to play with that a little more.”

Ruby and Gina will also still be going strong in season 2, but they will face some challenges. “They’ve spent some time together,” Kiara teased. “Ruby is very comfortable. It feels almost like at home, and we start to realize that maybe some communication is needed between the both of them. Someone might be feeling more hurt than the other and trying to figure out is this a forever thing? Is this only a for now a thing?”
She went on to say, “The first episode of the second season, there’s something happening all the entire episode. It’s one of those things that you really have to tune in because you get like immediate gratification and understanding of everyone’s storyline in the very first episode.” Fantasy Island will air Mondays on FOX.
