Lady Nicole Remy's journey for love just got twice as interesting!
After narrowing down her pack of possible love interests during the first two weeks of The Courtship, a surprise is in store for the leading lady on the March 23 episode. Two more suitors will be joining the remaining group of men, and E! News has the exclusive first look at the hunky gentlemen who will be competing for Nicole's heart on the USA dating-competition show.
Host Rick Edwards teases in the below preview, "Miss Remy has made her decisions, hard as they were. Nine suitors remain…but not for long."
A sense of dread falls upon the men as a carriage rolls up to the castle's front steps, while Nicole and her Court of family and friends excitedly await their arrival. "I can't stand," Nicole nervously says.
Two new contestants, Tim Hatem and Jesse Judge, enter the ballroom. While the new additions are grinning from ear to ear, the other men look far less excited about the unexpected twist.
"Gentlemen, welcome," Rick says as Nicole remains in shock.

Turning the traditional reality dating series on its head, The Courtship transports viewers back to Regency-era England to see if 19th-century romance can spark a modern-day connection.
Don't miss The Courtship Wednesdays at 11 p.m. on USA. Episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
