Apologies if there is already a thread on this. I've just seen an advert saying this is back on ITV at 9pm tonight. I really enjoyed series 1. I guess this will be difficult as the parents will know that their kids are watching them? I'm interested to see how they change it up.

Steph reminds me of Kate O'Mara definitely older than 44.

Would liked to have seen lovely Martin back again too.

@Illjusthavethebreadsticks yes re: Kate O’Mara. Love Steph’s style, fab outfits & loved her bracelet with the dark stone.

joolsella · 20/09/2024 07:52

Steph's style and looks are not a typical 44 y/o

Has she had too much sun?

RancidRuby · 20/09/2024 08:15

I think Steph looks great, at least she's not pumped full of Botox and I love her fashion style so far.

I agree. She’s the most elegant and stylish - so much so the guys commented on it - and it’s really refreshing to see a woman happy to wear her years on her face.

The women are all very slim and attractive. I know I'm a little bit older than all of them but it's disappointing that there's no one I can really relate to. It'd be good to see a few people of different shapes and sizes!

I do like the therapy sessions - i like that they get them to think about past behaviours and how they can do things differently. it's not like other dating reality shows where it's just watching a car crash in slow motion!

Jenny irritates me... interesting that all the men are all over her like a rash.

There was a normal sized ( mine lol ) woman last session and sadly men were saying what a great personality she had etc etc but she wasn't their type .. ie petite or glam

Ghilliegums · 20/09/2024 08:30

The men are creeps. I mean, you've got to have a touch of kink about being watched etc to go on this show in the first place surely?

What’s “kinky” about it? They all seem to be having a great time, it’s like a two week luxury house party. I’d be in there like ferret down a rabbit hole if I was looking for a relationship.

User14March · 20/09/2024 09:10

I do wonder why these lovely women struggle so much with online dating, Steph single for 5 years etc.

I've friends of a similar age, and I would say we as a friend group look similar (I wouldn't say these women are particularly glam), most of the women I know of this age dress similarly, go to the gym regularly etc. However, they all struggle with online dating.

You'd have to be comfortable with that being watched by lots of people. It's well known that most of the contestants on MAFS are into threesomes and voyeurism - nothing wrong with that tbh but definitely takes a certain type of person.

User14March · 20/09/2024 09:35

@startingoveragainagain what is problem with online dating do you think? There needs to be a better, another way.

Flowery57 · 20/09/2024 09:36

BIossomtoes · 16/09/2024 23:58

Not just you. I’m enjoying it too - to the point of binge watching the first five episodes this afternoon. Of all the reality TV series it’s my favourite.

I’m enjoying it too … I think they are behaving quite naturally? But maybe that’s just me!

They’re not doing anything! We’re halfway through and there’s been one chaste kiss.

What is then?

Ozanj · 20/09/2024 09:43

New lady looks much older than 44 but also seems wealthy. I assume that’s part of why everyone’s interested

User14March · 20/09/2024 09:52

I think you have to be a confident, extrovert to thrive in the house. Swimming etc & millions watching…introverts dream ;)

User14March · 20/09/2024 09:56

@Ozanj that’s an interesting take. Is Paul wealthy? New guy in that was there last year.

SunmerSazz · 20/09/2024 10:02

On the music, there is a Spotify playlist from last year. Can't see one for this year yet but hope they do release one

I agree. There's no overweight people in there!

NCTDN · 20/09/2024 12:36

Do their children stay in a house for the whole fortnight as well? Do they just sit and watch tv?

Do you mean Jenny? She seems quiet and inoffensive to me...

usernother · 20/09/2024 13:02

I was wondering about Clare who was a SAHM for 26 years and now is a charity volunteer. The fact that she hadn't worked for so long would, rightly or wrongly, put me off her and I wonder if any of the men feel the same. She seems like a lovely person and she's very pretty.

cakelover75 · 20/09/2024 13:15

I’m loving this programme. Here’s my thoughts so far for what it’s worth…

Maria - love her, seems like an absolute hoot and is keeping them all entertained. Would love to hang out with her.
Claire - seems lovely and hope she comes out of herself a bit more. The two men she’s been on dates with both described her as caring and motherly.
Jenny - love her and love her sense of style. Hope she gets the nerve to tell Danny she’s interested in him.
Vicky - seems very nice, interested that all the men love her. I thought she might’ve had a boob job?
Steph - very attractive but also shocked at her age. She’s had a lot of Botox which has aged her. She’s very popular with the men so interested to see how that goes.
