The Ultimatum: Queer Love Season 2 OTT Release Date - When and where to watch new drama-filled dating chapter
The Ultimatum: Queer Love Season 2 OTT Release Date - If you've been waiting to dive back into the emotionally charged, partner-swapping chaos of The Ultimatum: Queer Love, the wait is almost over. Season 2 of The Ultimatum: Queer Love officially premieres on June 25, 2025, on Netflix. Episodes will roll out over two weeks, so don't expect the whole season in one drop. What's new in The Ultimatum: Queer Love Season 2? If you've watched the first season, you already know how this goes: One person in each couple is ready to get married, the other isn't quite there. So, the couple joins the show, splits up, dates other people in the cast, enters a 'trial marriage' with a new partner, and then reunites with their original person to decide whether to say 'I do,' walk away, or commit to someone new entirely. This time around, the experiment takes place in Miami, which means sunshine, high-stakes poolside conversations, and even higher emotional tension. JoAnna Garcia Swisher (of Sweet Magnolias fame) returns as host, guiding the six new queer couples through this whirlwind of love, doubt, discovery, and very public decision-making. Meet the Season 2 couples Here's a quick intro to the six pairs who've decided to put their love on the line: AJ & Britney: Together 5 years. AJ is unsure about always being second to Britney's ambitions. Britney wants clarity, now. Haley & Pilar: Together for 10 years. Haley is ready to marry the love of her life, but Pilar thinks marriage is a 'societal construct.' Kyle & Bridget: Together 2.5 years. Kyle wants marriage, but Bridget doesn't see the point, but still sees a future with Kyle. Ashley & Marita, Marie & Mel, Dayna & Magan: These three couples round out the cast, each bringing their own version of 'We need to talk' to the table. Every pair is facing a fork in the road: either get engaged or get out. So, mark your calendar. Whether you're in it for the romance, the therapy-level conversations, or the dramatic 'choose your spouse' moments, The Ultimatum: Queer Love Season 2 promises to deliver.

5 shows you have to watch if you loved Netflix's Four Seasons
Sophie-May Williams Published May 20, 2025 4:55pm Link is copied Comments The Four Seasons is Netflix's newest comedy-drama series taking the platform by storm. It follows the decades-long friendship between three married couples, who, without fail, get together for quarterly weekend getaways. But when one of the duos drops a divorce into the mix, the group's picture-perfect friendship is plunged into unknown waters. Starring big names like Steve Carell, Tina Fey, and Colman Domingo, it's no surprise the show has become so popular with fans in such a short space of time (Picture: Francisco Roman/Netflix) But, like many Netflix series, it's incredibly binge-worthy, meaning you've likely already watched the available eight episodes. And then what next? Lucky for you, we've dropped five shows that you need to feast your eyes and ears on if you loved Four Seasons. You're welcome! (Picture: Netflix) The main similarity? This show is based around a tight-knit group of college friends. All Harvard alumni, the series follows them 20 years after their graduation. Now all professionals in their 40s, viewers get to watch each character navigate life, work and love through a New York City lens. The latter part also kind of sounds like Sex and the City, don't you think? Friends from College is available to watch on Netflix (Picture: Barbara Nitke/Netflix) Sweet Magnolias is based on the novels of the same name by American author Sherryl Woods. It follows childhood friends Maddie, Helen and Dana Sue from South Carolina, as they juggle life's general issues like relationships, family and careers. Wholesome, romantic, and a slice of drama, it's the perfect viewing to while away a Saturday afternoon. Sweet Magnolias is available to watch on Netflix (Picture: Netflix, Inc. All Rights Reserved) Beth is a successful New York wine salesperson who is forced to reevaluate her life when her mother unexpectedly dies. When she starts getting flashbacks to her teenage self, she begins to engage with her past experiences. Beth learns that to become the person she wants to be, she needs to understand how she became the person she is today. Essentially, she realises that a trip down memory lane is the only way to move forward. Life & Beth is available to watch on Disney+ with a premium subscription (Picture: Hulu) OK, we're presuming that the majority of people reading this have seen Friends. But on the off chance you've somehow not seen all 236 episodes of the iconic show that defined the 90s and early 2000s, it centres around a group of six friends: Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Chandler, Joey and Ross. All in their 20s, they regularly meet up in Central Perk, a New York City coffee house, to share the highs, lows, dramas, and mundaneness of their lives. Friends is available to watch on Netflix (Picture: ABC) Again, if you haven't watched The White Lotus (especially as season 3 recently dropped), where have you been? The anthology series, which was created by Mike White, is set at a different luxury White Lotus resort each season. From Hawaii to Sicily to Thailand, the hotel welcomes a group of guests who all have dark secrets and problematic lives that end up spiralling out of control during what's meant to be a relaxing holiday. Oh, and it's the perfect watch if you're a Jennifer Coolidge superfan. The White Lotus is available to watch on NOW TV (Picture: HBO)
