Herbert Smith On OWN’s Ready to Love Season 8

Herbert Smith is looking for love and joined as a cast member of Ready To Love. In the show, he piqued the interest of Janelle Langford in the first episode of the show. Janelle described him as “looking all good, very nice, great energy” and she was here for all of it.

The couple were flirting and touching one another so there definitely was a spark there between the two.

Herbert tells Janelle that he wasn’t married before and he wants kids (how many lords say). Janelle thought their interaction “wasn’t forced” and “it felt good.”

Per his bio, he is a partnership manager. Ahead of the show’s premiere, Herbert announced on his IG, “So I did a thing… I’ve been out here looking for love for a while, but kept coming up short! 🤷🏾‍♂️😔You want different results you have to try something different. So I figured I let the good folks @owntv introduce me to some of DFW’s most eligible bachelorettes and participate in a process to find love! Take this journey with me Friday nights @ 7 on @ownkeepitreal or @hbomaxes/@StreamOnMax starting TONIGHT!! #ReadyToLove  #ReadyToLoveseason8  #RTLSeason8  #RTL #Dallas #DallasTexas.”

In July 2023 a brand-new season of Ready to Love premiered. A fresh set of singles will be featured in the following season, who will try to find love on OWN TV while traveling to Dallas. Only on OWN, the new season of Ready to Love will debut on Friday, July 7, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET.

The press release read, “These are grown men and women in their 30s and 40s who are seeking the special relationship of a lifetime that has eluded them thus far, and the baggage they each bring to the party is real.” 18 singles participated in this season of the dating reality show as they bonded with one another in an effort to find love. This dating reality show covers singles in their 30s and 40s, which is unusual for most of them.

The Ready to Love cast will get to know one another at a Mansion Mixer in Dallas before the program airs. Even before the evening is over, two cast members will say their farewell.

Following their interactions with the men, the female competitors and the men will both determine which male single they don’t want to get to know any further. Each week, one single’s mission to find love ends, therefore the remaining candidates must continue to strive to win each other over. According to the press release, the turmoil, love triangles, and broken hearts will either endanger or strengthen the burgeoning romances. Only “the strongest connections” will endure, though.
