Bad Boyfriends Returns Sept. 14 With First Same-Sex Couple

Attwood cites a rigorous casting process that makes neutrality during filming difficult.

Overview

  • Host Olivia Attwood confirms Anthony and Dillon will join series two as the show's first same-sex couple.
  • She describes their inclusion as a 'no brainer' after producers sought couples with real history willing to film.
  • Producers say series one did not feature a same-sex couple because they did not find a suitable match for the format.
  • The new series is scheduled for Sunday, September 14 on ITV2 and ITVX, with outlets reporting differing start times of 9pm and 10pm.
  • Attwood says she feels protective of participants and remains open to potential spin-offs such as 'Bad Girlfriends' or 'Bad Wives'.
