Author: Alex RossPublished 27th Sep 2023

With the majority of reality TV fans all being hooked on dating show My Mum, Your Dad over the last two weeks, it's safe to say viewers were gutted when the show, hosted by Davina McCall, concluded on Friday 22nd September.

However, whilst we all patiently await any news of a cast reunion episode, ITV/STV bosses have only gone and graced us with a brand new series!

OK, OK, so it's not quite a second series, but they have uploaded series one of My Mum, Your Dad Australia to ITVX and STV Player, leaving fans buzzing.

Hosted by Kate Langbroek, the series originally aired in Australia in November 2022 and is made up of eight episodes for viewers to sink their teeth into.

The show features single parents including Carol, Mel, Heath, Marette, Kristy, Neil, Petula and Tim, as well as their grown up children who act as relationship experts, unbeknownst to their parents.

If you watched the UK version earlier this month, you'll certainly be familiar with the format of the show, which follows the singletons moving in to a retreat in an attempt to find love.

The original concept of the show was created by daughter and dad duo Haley and Greg Daniels, with versions around the world including UK, Australia, US, France and Germany.

Check out which couples from My Mum, Your Dad stayed together:

Natalie and Paul

44-year-old Natalie was nominated by her son Kaliel for the show, and she was quick to make an impression with 47-year-old Paul, who was nominated by his daughter Mazey. The pair had an instant connection in the retreat and were the first couple to share a snog during the school disco party. Since that moment, they enjoyed getting to know each other more, and displayed a lot of affection around the other cast mates, looking very comfortable in each other's company. On their final date, Natalie even opened up to Paul about her past addictions and troubles.


The positive vibes continued when the pair met each other's kids during the final episode, with both Natalie and Paul being full of praise for each other, both admitting they want things to work outside of the retreat after getting the blessing of Kaliel and Mazey.


Are Natalie and Paul still together?
Unfortunaly not. Despite viewers having high hopes for the pair, one day after the final episode aired they took to social media to release a joint statement which read: Firstly just wanted to say thank you for the overwhelming support from everyone who has watched the show and how invested you have been with our journey. It was an incredible experience and one that we will be forever grateful for taking part in.


'Nat and I had an incredible experience in the retreat and loved every moment, we continued that connection over the summer and had some great times together. Unfortunately in early August we decided to call a day on the relationship. We are both still friends and wish each other the best. Thank you for your continued support and we're very thankful to @davinamccall @itv @mymumyourdaduk for all we gained from the experience❤️'. (sic)

Janey and Roger

58-year-old Roger was nominated by his daughter Jess for the show, following the sad passing of his wife last year. Despite initially enjoying a date with Scottish contestant Caroline, it was the arrival of 47-year-old Janey, who was nominated by her son Will, that really helped Roger open up. After cooling things with Caroline so he could explore things further with Janey, the pair enjoyed spending time together in the retreat, and even shared their first kiss during their final date.


Despite Janey's son Will and Roger's daughter Jess having a few reserves, when they met during the final episode it appeared these were put to bed, with both kids giving their parents their blessings.


Are Janey and Roger still together?
They are! One day after the final episode aired, both Janey and Roger took to social media to confirm they are still going strong. Janey shared a picture of the pair cuddling in bed, whilst Roger posted a photo of the pair at the beach, revealing they are happier than ever!

Since then, the couple have shared loved-up holiday photos, and even discussed future marriage plans! The happy couple have also landed themselves a job on This Morning!

Sharon and Elliott

Sunderland lass Sharon was nominated by her daughter Tia for the show, after suffering heartbreak in her past relationships. The 53-year-old quickly caught the eye of 53-year-old PE Teacher Elliott, with the couple enjoying get to know each other in the retreat. Despite their obvious connection, Sharon struggled to be open with Elliot due to her past trauma in relationships, but Elliott was quick to reassure her that he was willing to go at a slow pace in order to pursue the romance.


Whilst meeting each other's children during the final episode, both Sharon and Elliott seemed positive about the future, despite the long-distance between the two in Sunderland and Essex. Sharon's daughter Tia and Elliott's son Zachary both championed the relationship, both giving their blessings.


Are Sharon and Elliott still together?
After the show aired, both Sharon and Elliott shared cosy snaps together on social media, revealing they have plans to move into together. HOWEVER, in November 2023, reports emerged that the pair had split, with Sharon unfollowing Elliott on Instagram.

Despite the reports, the pair are yet to publicly announce the news.

Monique and Martin M

After being nominated for the show by her daughter Taiya, things got off to a slow start for 50-year-old Monique, with the therapist admitting she wasn't attracted to any of the men. However, when new arrivals Martin M and Martin H arrived into the retreat, Monique came into her own! Following a number of dates with the Martins, Monique found herself in a love square alongside fellow contestant Tollulah, but during the final few episodes, Martin M admitted his feelings were strongest for Monique. The pair then enjoyed a final date together, where Monique hinted she'd be happy to move to Ibiza, where Martin lives!


However, following the visit from her daughter Taiya during the final episode, Monique had doubts about Martin's true feelings, later quizzing him about his actions towards her during their time in the retreat.


As fans will know, Monique ended things with Martin during the final episode, admitting she felt they just weren't right for each other. Following the conversation, Martin admitted the experience has taught him to take people's feelings into consideration more. The pair left the retreat as friends.

Whilst fans can now enjoy the Australian version of the smash show, viewers are holding out for any news of a second series of the UK version.

Bosses are yet to confirm any news just yet, but due to the popularity, we suspect they'll be keen to sign on the dotted line!

Series one of both My Mum, Your Dad UK and Australia is available on ITVX and STV Player now.
