AFFAIR HEARING

IF you've ever been cheated on, the thought of being trapped in a villa with your ex might sound like an absolute nightmare.

- 

Unless, maybe, Amanda Holden, relationship guru Paul C Brunson and seven other couples all in the same situation as you, were there too?

That's the premise of new Netflix show Cheat: Unfinished Business, which sees eight not-so-happy couples, whose relationships have been wrecked by infidelity, reunited in a villa in Majorca, Spain, to see if they can revive their romance.

Netflix's Cheat: Unfinished Business sees couples who split due to infidelity tackle their problems in a Spanish villa. Hosts Amanda Holden and Paul C Brunson tell ELLA WALKER why we should not be too quick to judge now that wants to see the bad guy, wants to see the good guy. I think it’s very important to listen and to see why people have done what they've done, and then for them to see the reaction of the person that they've betrayed,’ says Amanda, who also co-hosts Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston.

"I don’t think some of the people that had done the betraying had any idea of the impact that had on the person that had asked them to go in the house,’ she adds.

“Because of that, they've changed. And so therefore the story changed. So therefore my opinion of them changed, because they do have empathy, and they do have a moral compass that they find through Paul and through the other exercises.”

She says it’s impossible to really “sit on the fence” and not have a view (“You will have very strong opinions about everyone in the house,”) but she wants people to “try not to judge too quickly when you start watching the show, because there’s a long way to go”.

After all, people can surprise you.
