The new tenant, Rebecca Parrott, sleeps on a mattress on the polished concrete floor in the bedroom where her daughter Tiffany’s partner, Micah Smith, is setting up a TV. Parrott has no couch, no bed frame, no TV stand. One thing she does have: photos of her fiancé, Zied Hakimi.

The franchise is a ratings juggernaut, with 10-plus spin-offs; according to TLC’s parent company, Discovery Inc., it “is one of the top performers,” making the network “the #1 most-watched in the U.S. among women aged 25 to 54.
The show’s tension is driven by one point: Are they really in love, or do they have ulterior motives? “One of the number-one questions I get is, ‘Is it real?’ ” says Robinson. Cast member David Toborowsky, 52, doesn’t fault viewers for questioning the intentions of couples on the show, including his own and those of his wife, Annie Suwan. Toborowsky met Suwan, 24 years his junior, in Thailand while getting over a divorce, and the pair fell in love.
Producers deny reports that the show is scripted. Alon Orstein, senior vice president of production and development for TLC, says the show’s authenticity is one of its strengths. Other successful shows might be more contrived, with “people being put together; there’s been some sort of matchmaking element,” he says, but “these are people who are finding each other on their own. And we’re finding them and following their journey.
Sharp says that the crew prioritizes the safety of the cast members and would “shut down production” or contact authorities if any violent incident occurred. But the show has aired several troubling moments, including scenes of Anfisa hitting Jorge. In March, fans launched a petition to remove cast member Geoffrey Paschel from the series after he was charged with aggravated kidnapping, domestic assault, interference with an emergency call, and vandalism, which court records show.
