ITV has paused Davina McCall’s dating show as it struggles to find suitable male participants
London: So, it looks like Davina McCall’s dating show, “My Mum, Your Dad,” is on hold. Apparently, ITV is having a tough time finding enough eligible men for the show.
The show, which is all about single parents looking for love, first hit the screens two years ago. They were all set to start filming a new series this year, but it seems they’ve hit a snag.
ITV has decided to pause things for now, hoping to attract more suitable dads. This comes just a few months after the second series aired last September.
A source mentioned that while there were plenty of lovely women wanting to join, there just weren’t enough men stepping up. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher, right?
They faced similar issues during the second series but managed to scrape together enough candidates. However, for the third series, it became clear that finding the right participants was going to be a real challenge.
ITV has confirmed that there won’t be a new series in 2025 due to other commitments, even though the show has been well-received. They might revisit it later, but for now, it’s on the back burner.
Since launching in September 2023, the show has been a hit, featuring single parents set up by their kids at a countryside retreat. It’s kind of like “Love Island” but with a twist!
So, if you’re a fan, hang tight! You might have to wait a bit longer for more episodes.
