Davina McCall regrets giving My Mum, Your Dad - her new ITV dating show for an older generation - the nickname 'Midlife Love Island' after originally pitching that idea
While reality fans have been describing ITV's upcoming dating show My Mum, Your Dad as a middle-aged Love Island, host Davina McCall, 55, has revealed that she coined that nickname - and she's been trying to scrub it ever since.
Speaking about the show, Davina revealed that she originally pitched the idea of Love Island for an older generation for ITV Commissioning Editor Amanda Stavri and spoke about it on a podcast. She added that in her pitch email, she put forward a few of her friends to go on the show. "I wrote out five bios of friends of mine - it was hilarious, I really went to town. But Amanda was really sweet, she got back to me quickly and said, ‘We’re not going to do that!
Eight parents take part on the show, from 51-year-old Scottish baby clinic assistant Caroline to Essex PE teacher and single dad Elliott.
