- The series premiered on April 1, 2025, on BBC One, with episodes airing weekly and available on BBC iPlayer.
- Stacey Solomon is praised for her authenticity and relatable approach to balancing career and family life, including her role as the household organizer.
- Joe Swash faces criticism for being portrayed as a 'man-child,' with moments of tension arising from his perceived lack of contribution to household responsibilities.
