Get ready to binge!
Following the success of new dating show My Mum, Your Dad here in the UK back in September, ITV/STV bosses were quick to gift fans with the Australian series, and now ANOTHER version of the hit show is arriving very soon!
That's right, bosses have confirmed the American version of My Mum, Your Dad, titled My Mom, Your Dad, will be available for fans to stream on ITVX and STV Player from 21st December.
My Mom, Your Dad US, which is hosted by Emmy-nominated actress and stand-up comedian Yvonne Orji, first aired in America back in January 2022, with the UK version following the same format earlier this year.
The show's synopsis reads: 'A group of single parents who have been nominated by their college-age kids for a second chance at love. The parents move into a house together, unaware that their adult children are right down the street living in a second house, watching their every move through hidden cameras and manipulating their encounters.
'From humorous cringe moments to heartwarming confessions, the kids will see their parents in a whole new light as they are presented with opportunities to select who they'll be matched with on one-on-one dates, and who may join the family Thanksgiving for years to come.'
Series one of My Mom, Your Dad is made up of eight episodes and featured a number of single-parents including Myles Johnson, Whitney Strunk, DeNeia Hendrix-Johnson, Troy Petrick, Patricia 'Trish' Duncan, Karen Larrea, Noah Petrick, and Breana Symone.

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.

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)
