The Challenge: All Stars 4 will bring back former fan favorites, including castmates who are friends and foes.
Nicole Zanatta and Laurel Stucky, who are ex-castmates and ex-lovers, will be among the MTV OGs competing in the fourth season of the spinoff.
The pair met through their reality television careers and had a tumultuous relationship on and off The Challenge. They also appeared on MTV’s Ex on the Beach: Peak of Love.
While some viewers might think they’ll be ready to put their differences aside and work together, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
Although the previous seasons featured their loving relationship, many fans have seen their falling out on social media.
A promotional sneak peek video for an upcoming episode of All Stars 4 also revealed that they have an “awkward” situation as the season begins.

The Challenge rookie Jakk Maddox pointed out an offensive comment about him on the show’s official Twitter account. He claims he asked MTV to make a statement about it but said the network refused.
Jakk Maddox says MTV didn’t protect him from hate speech
Shortly before the final part of The Challenge: Ride or Dies reunion aired, the official Twitter account for the show tweeted pictures of several castmates, including rookie Jakk Maddox, to remind followers of it starting in the next hour.
Someone responded to the tweet, presumably about the Ex on the Beach: Peak of Love star, “nothing against gay people, but dude is doing way too much. I can see that guy being a pedo for sure.” The tweet caught Jakk’s attention, and he made an Instagram reel about it.
