‘We give it a week!’ rant My Mum Your Dad fans after spotting clue that star ‘isn’t into’ his final pick
My Mum Your Dad viewers are convinced one couple is already heading for a split after the finale of the dating show.
Fans of the ITV1 series tuned in to see whether the kids would give their parents their blessings on Friday night, but they were left shaking their heads at the telly.
Despite her concerns, Vicky’s daughter Angharad, 28, gave her approval for her mum to pursue a relationship with David.
David’s daughter Tiana, 21, also gave the nod for their partnership.
But although the couple still appeared to be giving it a go two months after they left the retreat, fans do not believe they will last the distance.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan said: “In the words my old man used to say ‘I’ll give them a week’ regarding Vicky and David.”
Another added: “David making it up as he goes along, like being in an interview you try to wing.”
A third remarked: “I’m just not feeling the love from David.. lovely man but a tad emotionally stunted.. sorry guys!”
And someone else chimed in: “I don’t think David is ready for a relationship. He seems emotionally contained, he’s not relaxed, easygoing.”
My Mum Your Dad returned for a second series earlier this month.
The ITV show, fronted by Davina McCall, sees middle-aged, single parents attempt to find love as their grown-up kids watch on.
On Friday night, the series reached a climax with three remaining couples being whisked on final dates outside of the retreat.
They also included Jenny and Danny, and Steph and Paul.
Vicky, 50, and David, 53, were treated to a romantic hot air balloon ride, while Jenny and Danny watched a movie about themselves in a vintage cinema.
Steph and Paul, meanwhile, were served a slap up lunch in the countryside.
During their meal, Steph and Paul decided they were better off as friends and bowed out of the experiment.
My Mum, Your Dad series two cast
Christian: “I think the biggest thing they’ll learn is that I put on a shield of jovial and lightheartedness but underneath I’m sensitive. I don’t let people see that usually.”
David: “I’m looking for a strong, independent woman. I need somebody whereby we feed off of each other, who matches the qualities that I’ve got!”
Maria: “There’s no time pressure now and you get to that age where you think why would I want to put up with somebody that gets on my nerves? I don’t have to!”
Andy: “Ideally, I’m looking for someone who will engage with me mentally, appeals to me physically and is there for me emotionally!”
Clare: “My love language is physical touch so someone that’s cuddly and tactile that makes me laugh and who’s a warm and kind person.”
Vicky: “I’ve been having no luck in trying to find someone myself. If there’s a room of people, I always tend to go for the one person I shouldn’t!”
Jenny: “I have exhausted everything, if I couldn’t have got onto My Mum, Your Dad, there was literally nothing left.”
Danny: “I’m hoping to meet someone that likes me. I don’t have to tick boxes. I’m just looking for someone who likes me back.”
Vicky and David, and Jenny and Danny continued through until the end of the show, where they received the nod of approval from their kids.
Despite being unhappy about several rocky moments, Vicky’s daughter Angharad decided to approve her mum’s new man.
And two months on, they were filmed together with David and Tiana in Vicky and Angharad’s native Wales – proving they were making a go of things.
Once the series finale had aired, host Davina took to X and posted a video of herself looking tearful.
She then encouraged fans to tag someone they think “deserves a place in the retreat”, in the hope a third series is commissioned.
