L'amour est dans le pré returns for 21st season on M6

The 21st season of the French reality program 'L'amour est dans le pré' is scheduled to premiere on M6 in August 2026. Host Karine Le Marchand will adopt a new role during the speed-dating segments, which have been redesigned to be more intimate. In this format, participants will engage in discussions without immediate camera presence, while Le Marchand observes their interactions from a Parisian barge to better analyze non-verbal communication.

Among the season's participants is Étienne, a 39-year-old dairy farmer from Pont-Hébert, Normandy. He operates a farm with his younger brother, Fabien, producing approximately 750,000 liters of milk annually. Étienne, who has been single for six years, expressed a desire to find a partner and start a family to alleviate the loneliness of managing the large family estate.
