TLC television broadcasts a lot of reality shows that show aspects of different people’s lives. In addition to the well-known “Stories of Great Importance”, about people struggling with clinical obesity, you can also watch “MILF Manor”. The format premiered on February 15, 2023. The first season of this American production involved 6 women aged 40 to 60.
For the duration of the recordings, they lived in a villa in Mexico with younger men with whom they were supposed to establish romantic relationships. It is a similar format to the popular “Hotel Paradise”, in which nine singles aged 18 to 30 who want to create a romantic relationship take part. Participants stay in a hotel on the island, without contact with loved ones or access to mobile phones.
The “catch” of the TLC show is that the younger men featured in it are also the sons of some of the women who also take part in the reality show. One of the production’s participants is 52-year-old Kelle Mortensten, who started a relationship with a 28-year-old man. It turned out that he was the son of her “friend” from the program, Pola.
Kelle Mortensten is a twice-divorced mother of six who works as a mortgage broker in California. Her hobby is fitness, which she often shows on her Instagram. She gathered nearly 90,000 followers there.
She is 52 years old and dated a 28-year-old man. He claims his mother “didn’t cut the umbilical cord”
She and Jose, 28, hit it off quickly in the show’s first season. However, the mutual fascination of the two did not please Jose’s mother, who was particularly irritated by a certain situation. During one date with Kelle, Jose ignored text messages from his mother asking why he wasn’t home yet. Kelle said that when she fell in love with the 28-year-old, his mother began to develop an attachment disorder. According to her, this made Jose feel “uncomfortable” during their romantic encounter.
His mom was acting like a jealous wife… I think she forgot to cut the umbilical cord when he was born
– she said in the program. She also called the second participant in the program a “helicopter parent.” This term refers to an overprotective parent who interferes excessively in the life of his or her child – even when he or she is already an adult.
“I used the power I saw as a little girl”
Kelle Mortensten gave various interviews after the program. She was invited to television, but she also talked to the famous tabloid “The Sun”. In it, she revealed the reasons that made her take part in an unusual reality show. It brought back very traumatic memories. When she was a child, she lost her mother, who died of cancer. Kelle couldn’t come to terms with it for a long time. – I saw her zest for life – she confessed.
She added that this experience later made her feel that she had to enjoy and enjoy life, regardless of what others said. She also mentioned that she watched her mother’s fierce fight against the disease. – I used the power I saw as a little girl to push me further. Because she (Kelle’s mother – ed.) had no way to live to the age of 52 – she announced.
