The series sees ex-couples come together over a make or break meal to answer some awkward questions about their relationship in a bid to find out where it all went wrong.

The new ten-part series, made by Thames (part of Fremantle), will also feature four celebrity specials, where famous faces will reunite with their exes.

At the end of the meal, the exes will decide if they want to give things another go, or part ways for good.

Managing Director of Thames, Amelia Brown, commented: "We have seen a tremendous appetite for dating reality shows, particularly those in the 16-24 age demographic, and Eating With My Ex is truly leading the pack here.

“The wonderfully diverse participants and stories that feature on the show has helped it to become one of the most talked about series on BBC Three”

The series will return to BBC Three in 2021.
