There’s a big hitch in the relationship between Kim, 25, and Matt, 28. As I Love a Mama’s Boy viewers will see in the show’s Oct. 25 premiere, the couple lives with Matt’s mother, Kelly. In fact, they sleep in Matt’s childhood room. With their sex life at stake, the duo eventually finds a house of their own … in his parent’s backyard.
“It’s not an ideal living situation because Matt is total mama’s boy,” Kim says in a preview of the series, as we see Kelly barging into their bedroom in the morning.

Kim elaborates: “It’s just a lot more challenging than I initially thought it would be because Matt and her are so close. They work together, so they carpool in the morning. Kelly and Matt are always planning something, whether it’s pedicures or our next vacation. I’m totally the third wheel with them, and instead of us going out for a date night, he’d rather hang out on the couch, drinking his sleepy-time tea with his mom.”
But Kelly, 56, is perfectly happy with the arrangement. “It’s a great system — right, Kim?” she shadily says in the clip, throwing a heaping dose of side-eye toward her potential daughter-in-law.
I Love a Mama’s Boy airs Sundays at 10 p.m. EST on TLC.
