Detroit – home of Motown, motor city, and a Mecca for Black excellence has now welcomed its very first mainstream reality show, Love & Marriage: Detroit.
The love & marriage franchise was first born back in 2019 airing on the OWN network the first of the series is Love & Marriage: Huntsville. Just last year Love & Marriage: DC was introduced, and now they’ve added Detroit to the series family.
The official logline: ‘Detroit is on the rise and so are the people. It’s a city where Black culture is strong. This reemerging city is all about family, friendship, business, excellence and of course, love and marriage. Love & Marriage: Detroit will center on a group of African American families with deep ties to Detroit who have decided to stay in the city and prove they can provide the best lives possible for their families in this community on a comeback.’
The focus: navigating the city as three couples showcase their balance with work, lifestyle, beliefs, family, friendships, and inevitably – marriage and the love that keeps it all signed, sealed and delivered.
Russell and Kolby Harris, Brandon and Kristina Bowman Smith, and Anthony and Dr. LaToya Thompson will star in the series.
Although they all share different backgrounds and stories of what brought them to the altar – all three possess the same deep love and appreciation for the city.
The newest series in the franchise, from reality producer and Detroit native Carlos King, is set to premiere June 24 at 9 PM on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network.
