Olivia Atwood's reality show Bad Boyfriends renewed for series two
And that's not the only show she's had renewed...
Last updated 12th Dec 2024
Although she's happily married to footballer Bradley Dack, former Love Island star Olivia Attwood is keen to help out the public with their love lives, with her landing ITV2/ST2 reality series Bad Boyfriends earlier this year - and now, fans will be happy to hear it's returning for another season in 2025! And that's not the only show she's had renewed...
That's right, Olivia, who has worked with ITV/STV before on shows such as Olivia Meets Her Match, Getting Filthy Rich and The Price of Perfection, will be returning to our screens with series two of Bad Boyfriends - as the show hits over an impressive 11 million streams on ITVX.
On top of that, Olivia will also be back with new instalments of her documentary series - the award-winning Getting Filthy Rich and The Price of Perfection.
What is Olivia's Bad Boyfriends?
Cheaters, DM sliders and badly behaved boyfriends have been warned! Olivia's new series saw eight unsuspecting bad boyfriends be flown out to a Greek island under the premise of filming a series about manhood and bromance in a hedonistic holiday mecca.
Of course, this wasn't the case at all, as Olivia quickly appeared to make the boys aware of the show's true purpose - to help make them better boyfriends.
As the girlfriends arrived to surprise their boyfriends, they competed in a series of challenges in order to help become the most-improved boyfriend.
For the show's second series, bosses promise that in 2025 viewers can expect 'new and outrageous twists and turns', as Olivia continues on her mission to transform another batch of wayward boys.
Olivia says: "Becoming the host of my own show Bad Boyfriends this year was a dream project to work on and I am so grateful to be able to do it all again for Season 2. Together with the incredible behind the scenes teams we've got so much in store for 2025, I can't wait for you all to see what's coming."
Upon the show's first launch in 2024, ITV/STV said of the premise: 'Expect tough love, lots of humour and plenty of mischief, alongside unexpected revelations and explosive scenes along the way. Can the couples get back on track with Olivia’s help? And how will the girlfriends react when the spotlight is turned on them?'
Just like all good reality TV shows, the series was packed full of dramatic eliminations, before one boy - former badly-behaved boyfriend Bayley - was crowned the winner, but left facing a huge dilemma...
Following season one's announcement earlier this year, Olivia said: "I’m so excited and honoured to announce that I am hosting my own dating show. This series has been two years in the making and keeping it under wraps has been so difficult! Filming with the couples in Greece exceeded all my expectations - they are just incredible and viewers are in for an absolute treat."

What about Olivia's other shows?
Olivia's award-winning docu-series Getting Filthy Rich and The Price of Perfection will also be returning in 2025.
This will mark the third series of Olivia Attwood: Getting Filthy Rich, with ITV/STV saying the new season will see: 'Olivia delve even deeper as she discovers just how diverse and inclusive the adult industry is, exploring even more surprising services - from Giantesses to 'MILFS' and 'GILFS' making erotic custom content.
After the first series of The Price of Perfection became ITVX's biggest factual entertainment launch ever, fans will be happy to hear it is returning for another season, with the reality star set to discover the 'astonishing' variety of surgeries and treatments that are now available, including those for 'weight loss to ‘eternal youth’', as well as 'how opting for low-price procedures can lead to complications and consequences'.
