Chilli and Matthew Lawrence have turned their off-screen chemistry into their first joint TV gig, guiding ex-lovers through emotional do-overs on Hallmark+.
From Romance to Reality TV
The couple, together since 2022, said yes to the project only after Hallmark promised a “wholesome” tone. Lawrence, 45, told News Of Los Angeles he never doubted their ability to co-host:
> “There’s nothing but love and respect, so I was not worried at all, and I think it went off pretty darn good.”
Chilli, 54, echoed the ease: “Everything just flows naturally.”
What Happens in Sardinia
Over 14 days the pairs:
- Revisit shared memories
- Confront unfinished business
- Decide to rekindle or walk away for good
The singers learned that closure matters more than outcome. As Chilli puts it:
> “You just need that closure because it’s always like, well, what if.”
Lawrence adds:
> “Some things are maybe meant to go forward and never were meant to end, and then certain things are probably just better left in the past.”
Key Takeaways
- The experience proved they can mix business and romance
- Chilli says they instinctively look out for each other on set
- Both hope the show helps viewers let go of lingering “what-ifs”
Second Chance Love is streaming now on Hallmark+.
