Yahoo News My Mum, Your Dad's Davina McCall teases new twist for season 2
My Mum, Your Dad host Davina McCall has teased a twist from the upcoming second season.
The ITV reality show followed a group of middle-aged single parents at a retreat as they sought another shot at love. Unbeknownst to them, their adult children were directly involved in the matchmaking process, making their choices for them.
With the show set to return later this year, Davina appeared opposite Alex Jones and Roman Kemp on The One Show to discuss the upcoming episodes, teasing that there will be a new twist for the cast.

“The new twist is quite funny because obviously they do know that their kids are watching now,” she began. “They are a little bit self-conscious about how far they take it or what they talk about – except for one mum [who’s a] potty mouth. I won’t say any more.
“But there is a room called The Snug, which was there before, which is a room the parents can go to if they want some privacy. There’s a switch, which the kids don’t know about, which can turn the television feed off.
“So the kids are watching in the bunker going: ‘hang on a minute, hang on a minute, hang on a minute’ and they go ‘what?” because the feed disappears. But they’re not joking around, they are very invested.”

Davina, who also currently appears as a judge on The Masked Singer, also spoke about the show in greater detail, saying the relationships between the parents and their children is just as important as any matchmaking.
“Yes, we are looking to matchmake people and help them in not feeling lonely anymore, but seeing the parents with their kids is adorable,” she said. “Watching the kids learn so much about their parents in those two weeks - it’s like a crash course. They’ve often never seen their parents be vulnerable.”
My Mum, Your Dad airs on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
