Former FBoy Island star Riccardo Valenza has been charged with stalking a woman.
Riccardo, who appeared on the inaugural 2023 season of FBoy Island Australia, was charged with one count of unlawful stalking on June 4, the Townsville Bulletin reports.
It has been alleged that Riccardo, 30, both stalked and harassed a woman in Queensland from December 8, 2022 to June 9, 2023.
The alleged offences occurred as his FBoy Island scenes went to air, with the Binge reality show premiering on May 29, 2023.
It was believed Riccardo was living between Townsville and the Sunshine Coast at the time the alleged offences occurred.
Riccardo, who is a veterinarian, was granted bail in Maroochydore Magistrates court on August 1.
However, it was reported that the charge was mentioned in Townsville Magistrates Court on Thursday, where Riccardo did not have to appear in person.
Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Binge for comment.
Former FBoy Island star Riccardo Valenza has been charged with stalking in Queensland
Debuting on Foxtel / Binge in May 2023, ten-part reality series FBoy Island centres on three women out to find love from a choice of 24 suitors.
However, the twist is that half of the men are time-wasting ‘f**k boys’ and the other half are genuinely looking for love.
Among those looking for love on season one were DJ Sophie Blackley, occupational therapist Molly O’Halloran, and model Ziara Rae.
Molly made the right call in choosing genuine contestant Nick Brown and Ziara found love with hunky Izaya Leota.
By correctly choosing a genuine guy over a Fboy, the women not only found love, but also walked away with $50,000 in prize money to share with their new partner.
Unfortunately, Sophie Blackley chose Fboy Joshy Allen, which means she did not find love and he was awarded the entire share of their prize money.
