Eeek, always worried when people describe themselves as good or decent. Why is he not with the mother of the 4 daughters? One of whom is only 7?!!! Hmmmmm …..

Yes that's what I thought tbh. Bit of a red flag there.

It usually means they’re anything but. I bet after 4 kids she was glad to see the back of him. Maybe that’s a tad harsh.

Agree. Him describing himself as a good dad seemed weird as well

Got visions of a cat giving you evil daggers of “Damn it! Let me out NOW” 🤣

I live in a Victorian conversion so I let him into the hallway but he could obviously smell the seafood platter I opened and then instantly started scratching to come back in, suddenly the cackling was bearable 🙄😂

ThePlatypusAlwaysTriumphs · 12/03/2026 20:33

hoxtonbabe · 12/03/2026 20:30

I wish I did that.. even the cat was scratching to go out and he’s a flipping indoor cat! 😡

My cat hasn't even appeared tonight.

menopausalfart · 12/03/2026 20:33

Did he have the 4 with the same woman?

MrJollyLivesNextDoor · 12/03/2026 20:33

This bloody Tilda Swindon ad gets right on my nerves

mumofoneAloneandwell · 12/03/2026 20:32

Two of them, and then one is 18 and one slightly younger iirc

That doesn’t bode well.

Choux · 12/03/2026 20:34

I notice Rebecca and Stephen are both from Victoria. The producers must want this to work if they are matching people from the same state.

menopausalfart · 12/03/2026 20:32

My eldest is 36 my youngest is 12.

I understand this, Sometimes I wonder if I will want a second when dd is older

Good spot. He didn’t mention their mother(s)

Clever cat.

I have a orange so not exactly the smartest 😂

IAmKerplunk · 12/03/2026 20:31

Absolutely not. My youngest is 12 and if I ever date again I will only date someone with adult dc.

Mines only 6 but the thought of the baby stage again is enough for me to be one and done (fingers crossed they're not famous last words!)

I was very young with my first. He was hard work, and I didn't want any more. Then I met someone later on, and I felt differently.

MargoLivebetter · 12/03/2026 20:36

I’m mid 50s and have done lots of dating and invariably the Dads banging on about how “good” they are, are anything but. Let’s hope he’s the exception. Also there is no way I could take on a 7 or even 12 year old now eve on an every 2nd weekend basis!

mumofoneAloneandwell · 12/03/2026 20:37

hoxtonbabe · 12/03/2026 20:31

That would actually be a dealbreaker for me. A big fat nope! 👋🏽👋🏽

Same. All that blended family politics omg

Yeah fuck that. I am not cut out to be a step mum

Appalonia · 12/03/2026 20:38

He's going to get exhausted by that cackling laugh v quickly methinks...

ThePlatypusAlwaysTriumphs · 12/03/2026 20:38

Mine were all close together- I had 3 under 5 at one point. I did enjoy them, but wouldn't go back!

IAmKerplunk · 12/03/2026 20:39

She sounds like Flipper!

I did the total opposite and had 4/5 year age gaps between each of my 4 😂

OMG, so true. Maybe she can hook up with Danny the dolphin?! 🤣

I love that - wanting more when your life changes
