The Ultimatum is a new dating show from the makers of Love is Blind which puts six couples to the ultimate test.

Each pair is approaching marriage, however one person in each couple is feeling more ready to pop the question than the other and issues an ultimate – they must agree to marry them or select a new potential partner from one of the other couples.

The couples then date each other and after eight weeks, they must decide whether they marry their original partner or break up and start afresh with someone else.

The Ultimatum contestants

Netflix has not yet officially introduced the six couples testing their relationships in The Ultimatum, however we got a taste of what's to come in the show's trailer.

“The only thing scarier than losing you right now would be to marry you,” one woman says in the teaser. “I definitely thought giving Jake the ultimatum would bring us together. It is doing the complete opposite,” another contestant adds.

The Ultimatum trailer

Netflix released a trailer for The Ultimatum on 4th March, with the dating experiment asking the question: "How do you know you've found the one?"
