When VH1's 'Rock of Love' took off in the early 2000s, Daisy de la Hoya wound up with her own reality bachelorette-esque show, and fans watched her choose London, the one guy in the house of men who seemed to really connect with Daisy. Show
But years later, what happened to Daisy de la Hoya's now-ex, "London"? Where Is Daisy De La Hoya Now?Life hasn't necessarily been easy for Daisy de la Hoya since 2009's 'Daisy of Love' concluded. As most fans recall, Daisy picked her winning man, who went by London on the show, and things seemed great. Unfortunately, that was the reality TV smoke and mirrors. Daisy later admitted that she had been struggling with substance abuse issues during not only VH1's 'Rock of Love 2' but also her subsequent reality series. In her pursuit of love, Daisy seemed to spiral. Yet things also didn't turn out well in terms of her love story with "London." Shortly after the series ended, Daisy stated that she thought her now-ex might have been out to make a name for himself, rather than looking for true love. Who Was London On 'Daisy Of Love'?It turns out "London" (all the guys on the series went by an alias) was Joshua Lee, a seemingly great guy who viewers were really rooting for. But as Daisy later revealed after the pair broke up, the reason for their split was that Joshua was expecting a baby with someone else. More than ten years later, of course, it's hard to pinpoint timelines. But Daisy's assumption was that Joshua was still with his baby mama and was only hoping to use her to gain notoriety in his own career. The unfortunate thing was that no one knew what the truth was, and Daisy's interpretation of events as well as her explanation of the breakup was called into question due to her substance abuse issues. In fact, when Lacey Sculls from 'Talk of Love' interviewed Joshua Lee in 2020, YouTube commenters were thrilled, and not because of Lee's ties to Daisy. What Happened To London From 'Daisy Of Love'?As Lacey Sculls elaborated as a preface to her interview with "London," he's really tough to track down on social media. He has a Facebook page, but its last active post was in 2009, and Joshua admitted that he purposely went underground from social media for his "mental health." He also elaborated that while social media is a great tool when he wants to promote something (say, an album), he finds himself wasting time scrolling otherwise. And even in the earlier days of social media, such as the forums centered on 'Daisy of Love,' Lee fell victim to trolling for comments about himself, and that wasn't a great idea, he noted. But as was revealed in the interview, Joshua does have a daughter, and still maintains a relationship with his daughter's mother, too. Did Joshua Lee Use Daisy For Publicity?To hear Joshua Lee AKA London tell the story, it almost sounds like he unwittingly walked into a reality TV saga he never wanted to be part of. Prior to being cast on 'Daisy of Love,' Joshua was in a band -- nothing big-time, he explained -- but he was living the good life in his 20s in New York. But then he auditioned for the show, got a callback after a couple of months, and then was handed an explanation of what the show actually entailed. So, it seems, he may not have known that the show was a reality dating series when he initially signed up. But one of the accusations that fans have made about Joshua Lee is that he "used" Daisy for publicity. In Lee's own words, he stated that he thought the show would be good for his band's promo, but Daisy didn't even factor in; he didn't know who she was at that point. Was Daisy De La Hoya And London's Relationship Real?In the interview with Lacey Sculls, Joshua Lee stated unequivocally that he and Daisy had a real "connection." In fact, he said that most of the relationship development happened not only off-camera, but off-set; after London withdrew from the show, he and Daisy stayed in touch. Still, the fakeness of the whole production took its toll, and Joshua agreed with Lacey that being cut off from the real world while 'falling in love' isn't healthy nor realistic. And similar to shows like '90 Day Fiance,' reality TV, whether a contestant "wins" or "loses," can change someone's life. Where Is Joshua Lee Now?Joshua Lee is still working on his music, and seems very close with his daughter, who turned 12 in October of 2021. He doesn't regret the decisions he made and stated that his daughter really saved his life. In fact, Lee stated that he would have taken a bad turn had he remained in LA in the reality TV world of Daisy de la Hoya, regardless of how much of a connection they may have had.

Elimination order[edit]Daisy's Call-out Order
Episodes[edit]Don't Be Stupid[edit]First aired April 26, 2009 (2M viewers)[4] After leaving Mexico with a broken heart, Daisy returns to find a man that is compatible with her. This time she brings Riki Rachtman to help her pluck out the fakes from the real. Although there are 20 men in the show, one of them is very familiar; 12 Pack, who has appeared on I Love New York and I Love Money. The men meet Daisy after she performs a song on stage for them. She says she is building a career for herself as a "singer, model, and all around bad ass". After the show, the men become situated and later, Daisy gives them nicknames to show off their personalities. The men are then led to the "mixer". As all the guys vie for her attention during the mixer, Flipper, who wants to grab the attention of Daisy, decides to jump off the stage bars and into the pool. Daisy confronts Tool Box for saying "Where the bitches at?" and warns him that she will not tolerate that kind of behavior. Weasel, London, and Torch become too intoxicated to form a connection with Daisy. Dropout fails to impress Daisy and she thinks that he is trying too hard to act cool. '84, '85, and '86 tell Daisy that they are only interested in having a good time and dating her together. After the party, Daisy gathers the men together, telling them that she knows who is there for her. She sends the triplets ('84, '85, and '86) packing before the elimination ceremony saying that she thought they were awesome, but that she is serious about finding love and will not share men or be shared by men. Riki invites them to take home with them all the food they can carry. Although the rest of the men think they are safe, Daisy tells them that two more people still have to go. After London and Weasel fall asleep, the guys decide to sabotage Weasel by drawing on his face. They are then gathered in the elimination room as Daisy gives chains one by one to the guys and asks them if they "will stay and be her rockstar". After many chains are passed out, it is soon down to Dropout, London, Torch, and Weasel. She decides to give Weasel and London another chance, and eliminates Torch and Dropout.
True Bromance[edit]First aired May 10, 2009 The guys wake up the next morning and as they ready themselves, 12 Pack reads them a letter from "Daisy's Diary" which tells them about their next challenge. The guys are upset about the events concerning Brooklyn and are all very angry that he received a chain. Brooklyn is aware of this and states he will "keep his distance from the other guys". When the guys reach the area of their next challenge, they are surprised to find it takes place in a desert. Ricki tells the guys that today's challenge is all about protecting Daisy. They learn that they must protect a symbolic Daisy mannequin from several sharp-shooting paintballers as they take it from the limo, to the "red carpet", and then to the "stage door". The men are divided into three teams of four and the teams must run their Daisy mannequin from location to location and the team with the least damaged Daisy mannequin will win the challenge and a date with Daisy. The Beige Team goes first with Cage as the first runner. Cage tries to protect the mannequin, but after getting hit so many times with paintballs, he says he begins to black out and the mannequin splits in half. Cage hands it to Brooklyn, who screams and soon hands it off to 6 Gauge. 6 Gauge hands it off to Cable Guy and Cable Guy actually falls on top of the mannequin, crushing many of its parts. The Orange Team goes and Big Rig, Flex, Fox, and Tool Box do a decent job of defending the mannequin. The Black Team defends the mannequin the best so, Sinister, London, Chi Chi and 12 Pack all win a date with Daisy and grants Sinister a VIP date for his good performance. After the challenge, Brooklyn thanks Daisy for his second chance, but says he lied to Daisy because he was drunk and says he is still in love with his ex-girlfriend. He says he is "throwing in the towel". Riki becomes infuriated and accuses Brooklyn of lying and criticizes him for hurting Daisy. Daisy says he was just wasting her time and that she does not need him. Daisy decides to bring all the guys to a club where they can all "let loose". While most of the guys battle for her attention and spend time with her, she forgets Sinister's VIP date, but he says he will let it go because it was the "rockstar thing to do". She also gets angry with Fox because she says that everyone was trying to spend time with her except for him. When confronted about it, Fox told her he does not want to compete with twelve other guys. The next day, Daisy has a romantic art date with 12 Pack, Sinister, Chi Chi, and London, where she paints on their bodies and they paint on her. 12 Pack opens up a lot and talks about his past love life. Sinister connects with Daisy and kisses her, which makes Chi Chi jealous. Chi Chi then kisses Daisy all over her body, which she found creepy. London connects very well with Daisy and she says he could be the one she is looking for. After the date, Cable Guy connects with Daisy and she likes his honesty, but says that he is not aggressive enough for this competition. Flex and Daisy share one-on-one time, and he makes her laugh a lot and Daisy forms a strong connection with him. Toolbox gets drunk and tells the other contestants that he is not "feeling Daisy for shit" and does not have a connection with her, which angers Flex. At elimination, she gives the first chain to Flex, followed by Sinister, London, 6 Gauge, 12 Pack, Big Rig, Cage, Chi Chi, and Fox. She sends home Cable Guy due to his lack of aggression. She was going to give Tool Box the last chain, but is informed by Flex that Tool Box said he did not have a connection with her. Daisy asks Toolbox if he wants to stay, and Tool Box said he wanted to stay, but that it was her decision. Daisy said she did not believe him and decided to eliminate him.
