The show My Mother, Your Father quickly won the hearts of viewers thanks to its unique and touching concept. This perfect mix of reality TV and the quest for love highlighted single parents looking for their soul mate, while being supported (and sometimes spied on!) by their own children.
With moments that are sometimes funny, sometimes moving, the show has captivated a large audience, seducing with its authenticity and the richness of the interactions between the participants. Viewers particularly appreciated the sincerity of the candidates, the intergenerational dynamics and the sometimes hilarious situations that this innovative formula created.
Supported by careful production and an endearing host in Nathalie Simard, My mother, your father has established itself as a real success, offering a nice dose of emotions and surprises in each episode.
However, some viewers had questions about the behind the scenes of the show, namely whether the parents really did not know that their children were hiding behind all that.
Well, one participant spoke out on social media to set the record straight.
Chantal, who is very active on TikTok, shared a video on the platform in which she took the time to explain that nothing that was happening was ''staged''
A question asked by the fans of the show who wondered if the reactions were really sincere.
Hi, I'm going to take a few minutes of your time just to rectify something. I heard that you thought we were acting out, that there were things that were all staged and everything. But no, there was nothing organized. Our children, we didn't even know what role they were to play in the adventure. Other, we knew they were accompanying us, but we didn't know what they were doing in the adventure.
Then, there is no one who is an actor in there. Then for me, when you see my face, I just realized that it was my son who, ultimately, who was behind all that, who was spying on me and everything. I am not an actress, but I am a very spontaneous, very transparent person. So, that's why I reacted like that. But no one suspected anything about all this. We were told absolutely nothing. So, I hope that answers the questions.
Here is the video in question:
