We’ve seen some of it, and it’s dramatic and over-the-top in ways not yet played out on VH1. Innovative! (Seriously, it is pretty amazing.) Check the press release below and then look even lower to check out the 13 women set to compete for Antonio’s heart:

Ultimate bachelor Antonio Sabato Jr. is looking for love—and VH1 captures every twist and turn of the battle for his heart in My Antonio.

Thirteen beautiful women travel to an exotic paradise in Hawaii, hoping to make a love connection with the General Hospital star, Calvin Klein underwear model and hunk extraordinaire. Who will win the heart of one of the most desired men on the planet? Find out on My Antonio, premiering Sunday, August 16th, 2009 at 10:00 PM* on VH1.

My Antonio is a real-life soap opera, with romance, betrayal and a show-stopping plot twist: A woman from Antonio’s past will shock everyone when she shows up to compete for his love. And she’s not just any woman. She’s Antonio’s ex-wife! Now she’s determined to win him back—at any cost.

And there’s another lady causing trouble — Antonio’s momma. She arrives to help him make the most important decision of his life. But is anyone good enough for her number one son?

The 10-episode series begins with Antonio’s sexy swim ashore to meet the 13 beauties vying for his attention. Within the first few moments, Antonio makes a shocking elimination, leading the women to realize that anything can happen when Antonio is in charge.

“I’ve been with some of the most amazing women in the world,” says Sabato, “and at the age of 36, I’m finally ready to settle down. I really hope to meet that special someone. For me this is not a game. This is real. This is my life.”

I am so crushed that Tully was sent home….you could see how genuine her feelings are for him and he too recognizeth is and feels the same about her. I think it was his fear and the influence of his mother to send Tully home. He is going to realize he made a big mistake!!!!! He needs to follow his heart and not the heart of his mother. Antonio should give her a second chance. Lets hope for a twist in the show.

Yvonne October 20, 2009 at 2:01 am

I love Antonios Mama!Have respect.I do wish that he would have kept Tully.hopefully he wont pick anyone and have another show.If so sign me up Antonio you’ll look no ferther I already love you and your Mama.

Gloria Lopez October 20, 2009 at 4:42 am

Antonio made a great error letting Tully go. She is the most sincere of all. Most of the girls were clearly in it for the money or the publicity. Tully loves clearly loves Antonio. Antonio loves her too but I think he wants more to please his witchy mother then to please himself. What kind of mother would not want real love for her son? How much could she love him? Seems its more about her, and Antonio is stupid to allow himself to be ruled by his mother. He’ll never be truly happy that way. Why was he so surprised to see her in a wedding gown, all the others got their chance in a wedding gown and he seemed to be ok with that.
One of the girls is questioning how he’ll support her finacially. Huge mistake Antonio. I hope you will come to your senses.

I was broken hearted when Antonio sent Tully home. I’ve not seen love like that between two people in over a decade- I can’t believe he walked away from her during their date and sent her home that night-it seems like he went from the man he now is back to his old habits she was talking about. I think he just got overwhelmed w/ intensity of his still buried but existing feelings- real (no joke) passion, love and commitment– these are extremely rare & these two have it in spades. REAL love is not easy & IS intense- as risky and hard as it can be beautiful & blissful. Tully is so graceful, beautiful, elegant, effortlessly gorgeous and so devoted to him. I wish his Mother could understand that she seems to feel anger more re: elopement & blames Tully 100% and not both of them- I’m sure he’s always been a strong man that went after his dreams. My heart ached watching that show the whole time- I don’t even like reality TV. I always see the guys go with the girl they haven’t slept with yet instead of what is really the best fit for them. Marriage and relationships are hard, they require a lot of work- one that makes both of them feel that deeply and if it makes you feel young and new again- that is a gift. I hope they find their way back to each other and his Mother understands that things aren’t always black and white- she is so hard with Tully. Any man would be amazing lucky to have Tully with her ethereal qualities and effortless grace and charm. Antonio is remarkable with his heart and depth of his soul and the way he seems to look and love the soul more than just the package. I think if he walks away from her and they separate for good, it is a mistake on his part- she opened herself raw and humbled herself to go w/ her heart & soul- she is brave and wonderful for having the courage to do that. My heart breaks for both of them and I wish his Mom to have more tolerance & less judgement of people- you can’t judge the heart & love doesn’t always have an age or time limit- it’s endless.

Nicole October 20, 2009 at 1:56 pm

sending tully home was so good, she did not belong there. Brooke is very caring and sincere, she should be the winner.

Jean October 20, 2009 at 3:45 pm

Now that Tully is gone, I really don’t care who wins. You get one chance at true love. I have three sons, and I stay out of their business with the ladies. Whatever happens, I want them to experience life, even the heartbreaks. Too bad for you, Antonio!

marie October 20, 2009 at 4:48 pm

WE LOVE TULLY.BRING HER BACK.THOSE OTHER _!(!`^~@&!%*$$_#! ES ARE UGLY AND THEY DONT LOVE HIM LIKE TULLY DOES.THE MOTHER NEEDS TO BUTT OUT AND SHE WAS SO UGLY TO TULLY IN THE HOSIPTAL.KICK THE MOTHER OFF AND BRING TULLY BACK.TULLY YOUR THE BEST ONE FOR HIM.

aris October 20, 2009 at 4:53 pm

He is not as mature as he thinks he is, his mother controls him in every aspect of his life. you love your ex wife and she loves you. you made the wrong decision. GROW UP!

ana October 20, 2009 at 4:54 pm

this man is not mature as he thinks he is his mother uses him and controls him, i feel so sorry for him. i do not watch this program but this one was so particularly special i thought he was going to end up with his ex wife..but his mother did not want to..so sorry grow up!!

Pam October 20, 2009 at 5:08 pm

I am glad that Tully is gone, she had a great person to love and she blew it. It would just end up the same way after a while and they would split up again.

Sandy October 20, 2009 at 5:32 pm

Your mom is a pushy old broad who should mind her business, and you Tony are so spineless to let her, your mother treat Tully that way. I had a husband just like you and a mother in-law just like your mother and I’m happy to say, I’m glad they are both gone. Grow up and stop playing games, you must think you are pretty special to be able to treat women the way you do. With influences from your mom, no wonder you haven’t been able to have a permanent relationship, your poor kids, what an example they have for a father.

Maria October 20, 2009 at 6:15 pm

BRING TULLY BACK…..

Janice October 20, 2009 at 10:22 pm

What are you talking about?!?! TULLY SUCKS! She was horrible, and she doesnt deserve another chance with Antonio, i really hope Miranda wins, she really loves Antonio, and she seems like the best pick for him. I was SO HAPPY when he sent that stupid Tully home, I HATED HER!!!! She was so dumb to bring those pictures out of when he was YOUNG, thats not him anymore! Tully is a loser, and needs to get a life! She has no money, no job, and she lives with her parents!!! All she is looking for is MONEY MONEY MONEY!

colleen October 20, 2009 at 11:37 pm

I think Antonio’s decision to send Tully away was a mistake. Tully was the only woman on the show that has any depth of character whatsoever. I hope this isn’t a sign that Antonio runs away from women that he has a true and deep connection with. Maybe he feels that there was no future with he and Tully, but he should explore the reason why he seems to be attracted to women with no heart. Good luck to Tully. she is honest, kind and brave.

Bigjudi October 21, 2009 at 1:46 am

Oh Antonio, my heart is broken. I think you should give Tully an other chance because it’s obvious that you love each other. I couldn’t stop crying every time i saw the episode again and again….

Diane October 21, 2009 at 11:08 am

Antonio

To walk away from true love……I feel sorry that you were hurt sooo soo bad.
I really thought Tully was the most honest one on your show.
I really hope you take the time to watch your own show and really see what you are getting yourself into.

Linda October 21, 2009 at 1:18 pm

Bring Tully back that was so ad and she truly loves you Antonio and the last 2 agals are not for you either for sure!!!!!!!!

hafida October 21, 2009 at 3:46 pm

ontonio was very hard for me to see tully leave, please make what the best for you, definily not brooke, I beleive you should give tully second chance,she was real deal on show, you about make show as love story ,I ‘m not sure if I want to see the final

tai October 21, 2009 at 8:30 pm

I am very disappointed! He didn’t give her a second chance. I was sad to see her go. I hope there a switch on show. I can not believe what just happen. I thought he love her…what a baby mama let someone control you. She is a beautiful, caring and loving person. Let just hope they bring her back. May god bless both of you guy. Aloha…

michelle October 22, 2009 at 1:37 pm

I think they should give Tully her own chance at love.
Give her hew own show.

Jennifer October 22, 2009 at 3:11 pm

I don’t need to see the remaining episodes or the end of the show. It doesn’t matter to me who he picks at this point. I really think he never should have strung Tully along through out the show if there was no serious thoughts of reconcilliation. I was really hoping they would re-kindle things and that maybe Antonio would be a MAN and stand up to his meddling mother.

Stephanie October 22, 2009 at 4:46 pm

There’s no point watching the show anymore! Bring Tully back! She was the right one.

Rose October 22, 2009 at 5:47 pm

I don’t understand why Antonio can tell Tully he loves her and then send her home… maybe mommy dearest has ruined his chance of EVER finding love

Joanna October 22, 2009 at 7:23 pm

WOW, what on earth were you thinking! Sending Tully home? It was so obvious to my 23 yr old and myself that you truly are in love with Tully, that we both cried (and she is not a crier) on the last episode.My daughter summed it up perfectly, by saying you and Tully were soul mates..I was married to an Italian man for over 20 yrs. His mom secretly (meaning behind his back)tormented myself and my 2 sister in laws for yrs with snide remarks, critisms, etc and I took it, out of respect for my husband. My father in law adored me and would fight with her over my treatment. She was the major reason 3 out of 4 sons were divorced. she hated all of the daugher in laws, because in her eyes, no woman was truly worthy of her sons. She vowed she would see us all divorced before her passing. And she did. she left in the wake of this storm, 10 devastated grandchildren, whom by the way, she never spoke to again,after the divorces. she finally apologized to me at my father in laws funeral, but she already ruined all of our lives. By the way, those other 2 women are not even nice women. one has a motive for money and one for her career. You are headed for another divorce. I guarantee it. As a mom of a son and daughter, I only want their happiness first, not mine. Your mom is very selfish and very controlling.

bigjudi October 23, 2009 at 12:09 am

Antonio, for me, the way you kiss on your date with Tully and the way you walk away after that kiss say everything loudly. It was like ” sorry Tully, i do love you but my mom comes first” What about you Antonio??? You are truly a wonderful person for sure, but be strong enough to take your own decisions.

bigjudi October 23, 2009 at 11:39 am

Antonio the way you kiss tully on your date and the way you walk away after that kiss say everything loudly. The way you look at her right before that kiss,it was like “Of course i love you Tully, and always will, but my mom comes first” What about you Antonio??? I think you are a wonderful person but be strong enough!!

Bridget October 23, 2009 at 4:22 pm

Antonio, I don’t think any of these girls are right for you . First of all remember you can never go back so even though you have feelings for someone doesn’t mean that it could ever work . You tried didn’t work move on. Miranda OMG she is way to high maint. please tell me you see this. That girl is spoiled rotten. Brooke well brooke is from ms so she would be honest and trustworthy but lets face it ms and california(any big city for that matter are not going to mix.) Please keep looking. I have been a fan of yours since your first appearance on GH and I just love you. I’m sure there are plenty of young ladies out there that could make you and your children very happy but these women are not it.

Monica Nelson (Texas) October 24, 2009 at 12:40 am

I am totally bummed that he sent Tully home. What a huge mistake. I hope Tully finds someone who will adore her the way she so adored Antonio. I was not sure I would like the show but it had something the other reality shows didn’t have and that was Tully and her obvious affection for Antonio w/o an agenda. I would love to see Tully find true love and better yet on a show with 15 hotties, only to have Antonio come back begging her to forgive him for his blinded ways and have her kick him to the curb along with his wicked mom

genelle October 24, 2009 at 2:04 pm

So sad, even love cannot turn back time, thats why they say when its done its done, she should have held on when she had him. Good luck Tully

genelle October 24, 2009 at 2:05 pm

so sad, hold on to what you have, cause even love cant turn back time

~BABYDOLL~ October 25, 2009 at 4:39 pm

WOW!!!! I CRIED WHEN ANTONIO LET TULLY GO..AND SOO DID ANTONIO!
YOU COULD SEE THE PAIN HE HAD IN HIS HEART WHEN HE WAS SAYING GOODBYE..=( THE RIMS OF HIS EYES WERE BLOOD SHOT RED..I ADMIRE TULLY FOR GRACEFULLY LEAVING EVEN MORE PROPS TO HER FOR GIVING CRUELLA DE VILLE A HUG BEFORE SHE LEFT…
I THINK ANTONIO LET TULLY GO TO SAVE FACE FROM HIS MOTHER,BUT IF YVONNE TRULY LOVED HER SON SHE WOULD HAVE SEEN THE PAIN IN HIS HEART.AND SHE WOULD HAVE GOT UP FROM HER SEAT,WALKED OVER,AND TOOK THAT CHIP OFF HER SHOULDER WITH TULLYS NAME ON IT, AND GAVE HER SON HER BLESSINGS TO KEEP TULLY..I WAS HOPEING AT ANY MOMENT ANTONIO WAS GOING TO PICK TULLY UP,CARRY HER TO THE BOAT(CIAO BELLA) AND DRIVE THE HECK OFF WITH HER!!!
BECAUSE THE OTHER TWO LADIES LEFT DO NOT HAVE WHAT ANTONIO NEEDS…YVONNE NEEDS TO FIND HERSELF HER OWN MAN TO KEEP HER OCCUPIED SO SHE CAN STOP INTERFERRING IN ANTONIOS LIFE…HE PROBABLY DID TULLY A FAVOR & LOVED HER ENOUGH TO LET HER GO SOO SHE WOULDN’T HAVE TO PUT UP WITH HIS MOTHER’S B.S…..ANTONIO GO GET TULLY AND BRING HER BACK SHE’S THE ONLY ONE ON THAT SHOW THAT TRULY HAD YOUR HEART AT INTEREST….

Jessica October 25, 2009 at 8:33 pm

Antonio should have kept Tully! Im willin to be those two ultimately will end up together. He really LOVES her. Yeah, she made a foolish mistake wearing that wedding gown to elimination, but i see her point! Brooke’s ok, but shes unsure. Miranda is an idiotic, princess airhead! I hope he brings Tully back tonight, she really loves him. His mom is a psycho.

Peg October 25, 2009 at 11:01 pm

He mad a big mistake !!!!
He should of chose Miranda…….

Fanya October 25, 2009 at 11:54 pm

I just don’t like his choice .
Miranda was the right one.
She really loves him

Cindee October 26, 2009 at 1:18 am

You messed up so bad when you let Tully go, she was the only one on the show with true intentions. She really loved you. Read your blogs man. Every loved her for you, and I still have feelings as well. Brooke was a hot mess.

laura October 26, 2009 at 1:37 am

miranda was the right one…. Brooke will fade in time

Michelle October 26, 2009 at 9:09 am

Great choice antonio!!!! I think your in for a wonderful time with brooke!!!

Lisette October 26, 2009 at 2:43 pm

Antonio, I am so disappointed that you didn’t pick Miranda. I think she compatible with who you are. I wish you luck with Brooke and if it doesn’t work out I think next season you should go to Italy to find your mate. You need a Bella that can share in your culture and family. Good luck in love it happens to us if you are open. Blessings, Lisette

nancy October 27, 2009 at 11:27 am

never written in a blog before – but I have to today – BROOKE????????????? She is ugly!!! The show was graet for the first 8 weeks and then he picks Brooke???? He has bad taste in women – and I will not watch a My Antonio 2

Eleftheria October 27, 2009 at 4:13 pm

I was so upset at the fact the Tully was sent home! Antonio, you know you still love Tully and she is madly in love with you! Tully should have been given a second chance to make things work with you. I feel that you were destined to be together!

Sinced you decided to not choose Tully (even though that was the right choice for you) you should have chosen MIRANDA!!!! Brook is all wrong for you!!! You can tell she’s hiding things and i feel she’s putting on a front. I feel that Brook has alternative motives for wanting to be with you! Bottom line-SHE SUCKS!!!!

Tully, Miranda one of you should have won his heart and i believe it’s only a matter of time before Brooke shows her true colors and Antonio realizes he made a HUGE mistake!!!

Arlene fManetti October 27, 2009 at 9:59 pm

Antonio, you need to get back to Italia, to fall in love with a beautiful brunette, green eyed Italian princess. Sometimes you have to let love find you, and it will. Peace, love and harmony to u, Your fan since ( brother Matthew) Arlene

LUV ME BEE October 27, 2009 at 10:39 pm

Hope Tully Gets Her Own Show Like Antonio Did….I Luv Her!!

perla ponce October 28, 2009 at 5:51 pm

antonio de verdad yo pienso y creo en mi corazon que la mujer que deverdad yo mire que te amaba era tu ex esposa y creo que ella es la uica que ahora con su experiencia es la unica que sinceramente te ama y creo que un dia te daras cuenta de eso.

Tessy October 29, 2009 at 6:02 pm

Antonio,
All I have to say is that out of all of those women, Tully was the one who truly loves you. Go get her and beg her to forgive you for letting her go, then go on and live a happy life with a woman who genuinely loves you.

margaret October 30, 2009 at 12:41 am

I am so happy Brooke is the one! She is so genuine throughout the whole show and she tells it like it is. She doesn’t say things to make him happy or to stay in the game but from the heart. I am so delighted! She is real!

Don October 31, 2009 at 7:36 pm

Antonio is such a candy ~`*%^@%`$^~*)+_ mama’s body I can’t imagine what it would be like to marry him and live with him and the mama… The dumb ~`*%^@%`$^~*)+_ sent the only one that loved home because mama did like her. I love my mom, but he takes it to the extreme if he love loves mama that much maybe he should be with her. Are you sure your not gay Antonio? Maybe next season should include guys and girls, wouldn’t mama’s tongue be wagging over that.

sierra October 31, 2009 at 9:29 pm

I can beat them all

lori harper November 1, 2009 at 9:47 pm

i never say antonio until he was in the movie “The Big Hit” and a couple of episodes of charmed…he is the hottest actor out there and any and all studios better be getting him in some movies …. or a prime time tv drama or a cable network drama…antonio ,steven strait(The Covenent), david borenza (angel and bones) are my favorite actors….would love to see a action/drama/sexy movie with antonio in it…i am a 47 year old single mom….i know i am to old for him but i can dream….hope to him in other projects…ljh louisville kentucky
