Netflix has revealed that Amanda Holden's co-host for its forthcoming reality series, Cheat: Unfinished Business, will be none other than Paul C Brunson.
The streaming giant confirmed on Thursday (March 20) that the relationship expert, known for his work on Married at First Sight UK and Celebs Go Dating, will join the judge to present the new dating show - which is set to debut next month.
Paul, who also hosts the popular relationship podcast, We Need To Talk, and is a best-selling author, will lend his expertise throughout the nine-part series.

The show follows eight former couples whose relationships were shattered by infidelity.
After their tumultuous breakups, the ex-partners will reconvene at a picturesque Spanish retreat to see if they can resolve their issues.
"As they reunite at a retreat, each pair will be guided through their issues by relationship expert, Paul C Brunson, in the hopes that they can face up to their past mistakes, rebuild trust and move forward - either together or apart," the official synopsis continues.
It further teases: "Will the Cheaters be able to fight for forgiveness and win back the hearts of those they betrayed? Or will they have to say goodbye to their relationship for good?"
Paul expressed his thrill over the casting announcement with a statement, in which he shared his hopes about the show's reception.
"When Netflix, Lifted and 12 Yard brought this idea to me, I was so excited by the opportunity to explore all the grey areas of infidelity for the contributors and the audience alike," he said, reports .
"Infidelity is complex and painful, but I don't think it always has to end a relationship. If both partners are willing to put in the work to rebuild trust, the process can often make a relationship stronger."
Paul concluded: "I think/hope that audiences will really resonate with our couples. The show feels very different to other dating formats and I can't wait to see how it's received next month."
The pioneering series is a joint creation of 12 Yard and Lifted Entertainment, and last year, Amanda was revealed as the chosen host for the anticipated programme.
Elated with her new role, she previously mentioned in a statement: "Sometimes dreams really do come true. All my career I always wanted to host a show about love and relationships - and this is it!!"
She added, "A series about second chances and unfinished business! I can't wait, along with our expert, to meet and help these couples work out whether they can forgive and forget. I'm absolutely thrilled to be part of it!"
Cheat: Unfinished Business will premiere on Netflix in April
