Get ready for a big shocker on Michael SchmidtThe Big D.

A new divorcée joins the group of six exes looking for a second chance at love in E! News' exclusive sneak peek at the USA dating series' June 28 episode.

Enter Angelique—a newly single hopeful on the hunt for Mr. Right eight months after her divorce. Upon her surprise arrival to the house in Costa Rica where the three former couples are staying, suitor David is immediately smitten.

"Angelique walks in and right away I'm drawn in," he admits in the preview, "I'm very attracted to her."

The only hangup? His ex-wife Gillian is also part of the dating experiment.

"I'm trying not to be too obvious about it," he explains in a confessional, "because I want to be respectful to my ex because she is right there burning a hole in the side of my head I'm sure."

After greeting her excited housemates, Angelique enthusiastically declares to everyone, "I'm very single." 

"Walking into the house, I'm feeling pretty confident and maybe even a little cocky," she admits in her confessional. "I am just like, 'You're that bitch, you've got this, they're gonna love you.'"

But unfortunately for David, it's another costar who quickly catches her attention.

"I look over and I see Dean," Angelique adds. "Dean is stylin'. He is a fashionisto, I'm a fashionista. I'm like, 'We gotta start connecting.'"

 See Angelique make her shocking entrance—and start flirting with Dean—in the preview above. 

As for how Angelique was truly feeling about meeting the other divorcees? She told E! News she was "so nervous" to join the group.

"As I walked in, I was super excited but also worried that the ladies might not be friendly or would be bugged I was there," she exclusively shared. "But everyone was so unbelievably kind and there was a great energy in the house. I was actually shocked at the welcome I got."

The Big D airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on USA.
