Heartbreaking Moment on My Mum, Your Dad Leaves Viewers in Tears

Monique Breaks Down in Emotional Moment

Viewers of the hit dating show, My Mum, Your Dad, were left reaching for their tissues as contestant Monique opened up about her struggles to find love. In a tearful conversation with host Davina McCall, Monique revealed that she has never experienced the feeling of being deeply in love and desired by someone who truly appreciates her.

A Promise to Her Late Father

Monique also shared that she carries the weight of a promise she made to her late father to "find love." This added pressure only exacerbates her feelings of not being good enough and constantly being let down by past relationships.

Heartfelt Reaction from Her Daughter

As Monique poured her heart out to Davina, her daughter Taiya looked on and expressed her own emotions. Taiya revealed that it was difficult for her to see her mother so upset and not be able to comfort her. She believes that this vulnerable moment may have been a major breakthrough for Monique.

Viewers Moved to Tears

Viewers took to Twitter to share their overwhelming support for Monique and express their own emotional reactions to the heartbreaking scene. Many called for "tear trigger warnings" before such heartwarming moments are shown on television, while others empathized with the lasting effects of being repeatedly let down and the toll it takes on one's confidence and psyche.

A History of Disappointing Relationships

Monique had previously described her dating history as "disappointing and disheartening," admitting to having poor judgment when it comes to choosing partners. She confessed to finding it difficult to truly understand the intentions of others, often giving people chances even when she knows deep down that it's not right. Despite her past experiences, Monique remains an eternal optimist when it comes to finding love.

The show, hosted by Davina, showcases nine contestants aged between 44 and 58, who are joined by their children to help them find true love during the course of the series.
