Davina McCall to host new BBC dating show after My Mum, Your Dad axed
The ‘serial matchmaker’ couldn’t be more thrilled
Davina McCall will front a new BBC dating show following the cancellation of ITV’s My Mum, Your Dad.
The presenter recently returned to work following surgery to remove a brain tumour.
And now, following a rather racy outing at the BRITs, where she declared she was “back”, Davina has revealed she’s looking forward to her new presenting role on Stranded on Honeymoon Island.

Davina McCall to host new BBC dating show
Davina is gearing up to host the BBC’s new dating show, Stranded on Honeymoon Island. It is expected to hit our screens later in 2025.
The show will see 12 singles find love after being paired up at a speed dating event in London. They will then exchange vows before being immediately transported to an island for their honeymoon.

However, the Stranded on Honeymoon Island stars won’t be enjoying a conventional holiday to celebrate their nuptials. Oh no! Instead, the contestants will encounter challenges while being “isolated and pitted against the forces of nature”.
Sharing her excitement about the new show, Davina said: “I am a serial matchmaker. So I jumped at the chance to host the BBC’s new dating show. I can’t wait to meet our couples and find out how they get on when they’re Stranded on Honeymoon Island.”
The new BBC show is created by the producers of Married At First Sight UK and Love Is Blind. Davina will take on the role of a host, as well as mentor to the newlyweds.

Stranded on Honeymoon Island
Far from seeing the couples enjoy themselves, Stranded on Honeymoon Island tests the couples’ survival instincts.
The BBC said: “Fledgling relationships are soon put to the test as the couples live out their honeymoon together and fend for themselves with few resources.
“Together they must communicate and collaborate to get by, with nowhere to run when the going gets tough. Will an escape from modern life bring them closer together or push them apart? Will it lead to love or loathing?”
We really can’t wait to find out!
