Relationship content lovers are in for a treat starting next month following the announcement that a South African spin-off of the hit global social experiment The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On was coming to Netflix.

"During the experiment, six couples break up, date their co-stars and finally choose one person to enter into a trial marriage with, putting their love lives through the winger as new relationships form and old relationships hang on by a thread," a press statement read.

"Once the trial marriage is completed, the couples enter into a second trial marriage with their original partner where they have to decide if they're in it for the long haul or if they want out."

More about the show:

Six different couples are on the verge of marriage. One partner in each couple will issue an ultimatum – they must get married or get out in just over eight weeks. In the meantime, each will choose new potential partners in a life-changing opportunity to glimpse at two different futures.
