Ah Productions announced the return of its hit reality show, “The Villa of the Broken Heart,” which has reconquered the hearts of audiences with its unique blend of romance, self-discovery, and emotional healing. As it enters its 9th season on TFX (TF1 Group), the show continues to prove its resonance with viewers, especially within the coveted 15-49 demographic.

This approach to reality television has struck a chord with audiences, as evidenced by the ratings of the latest season. The debut of this new season reached 475 000 viewers, boasting an 12.4% share of the commercial target (15-49) and a remarkable 18.3% among Young Adults. These figures make it the best-performing program in its timeslot since September 2020.

“The Villa of the Broken Heart” is not just a national success but is also gaining traction on the international stage. The format is currently under option in several key markets, including Scandinavia, Germany, the US, the UK, Benelux, Spain and more recently Africa. 

In this season, well-known personalities, each with their own history of romantic setbacks or a lack of true love, embark on a transformative journey. Set against the backdrop of an idyllic, sun-soaked villa at a remote paradise, these Broken Hearts are determined to turn their love lives around. Over the course of several weeks, they will reflect on past failures, face their vulnerabilities, and open themselves up to the possibility of finding real love, guided every step of the way by a dedicated Love Coach. Unlike typical reality shows, “The Villa of the Broken Heart” eschews eliminations in favor of a more intimate and therapeutic experience. The show is refreshingly organic, allowing the participants to be authentic and true to themselves.

The presence of the Love Coach is central, providing not just advice, but also guiding the celebrities through therapeutic exercises designed to heal old wounds and build new, stronger foundations for future relationships.

Antoine Henriquet, the founder of Ah Productions, shares his thoughts on the show’s enduring success: “We see a desire from viewers to watch authenticity and good-hearted reality. ‘The Villa of the Broken Heart’ showcases the vulnerability and sincerity of these celebrities, offering a rare glimpse into their true personalities. The Love Coach brings an added layer of intimacy, creating a unique bond between the participants and the audience. This format’s flexibility and the absence of rigid mechanics allow the stars to break free from traditional reality TV constraints and engage in a genuine process of self-discovery," stated.
