Controversial 'Bachelor' Couple Set to Host New Netflix Dating Series

The former 'Bachelor' and his much younger wife are set to host a new Netflix series that explores age-gap relationships.

Former Bachelor star Nick Viall and wife Natalie Joy are set to host Netflix's new reality dating series, Age of Attraction, set to premiere in 2026.

Netflix announced Viall, 44, and Joy, 26, were the hosts of the new show on Thursday, July 17.

A description for the series read, "Over the last five years, countless singles around the globe have answered the question "Is love truly blind?" But now a new group of romantic hopefuls want to know: Is it also ageless? They’ll find out in Age of Attraction, launching in 2026."

"In this new dating experiment, it simply does not matter how many candles were on your last birthday cake or how few wrinkles have formed on your forehead. Age is thrown out the window as singles search for their soulmates with help from hosts Nick Viall and Natalie Joy," the description continued. "The daters range from 22 to 59 years old, so potential matches will see if age is just a number. Or will the years come between them?"

Viall and Joy are no stranger to age-gap relationships. The pair started officially dating in July 2020 when Viall was 39 and Joy was 21, though the couple were first linked together in 2019. Viall and Joy married in April 2024 after welcoming their daughter River in February of that year.

Viall first rose to fame as the runner-up of seasons 10 and 11 of The Bachelorette. He later starred on Season 3 of Bachelor in Paradise before becoming the titular Bachelor for Season 21 of the series. 

On their podcast, The Viall Files, Viall and Joy often give dating and relationship advice based on their own experiences.
