I Love a Mama’s Boy Season 4 features one returning mother-son duo and four new groups: Matt and Kelly McAdams; Shahid, his mother Dia, and fiancée Nylah; Josh, his mother Tina, and wife Janelle; Austin, his mother Shirlene, and partner Kris; and Chase, his mother Lori, and fiancée Natasha. The relationships below are described in TLC’s September 2024 season preview, so they should not be taken as an update on anyone’s status today.
Who are the Season 4 couples?
The season preview presents five mother-son groups, with the romantic relationships ranging from dating to marriage and attempted reconciliation.
| Group | Relationship status in the September 2024 preview | Mother’s role in the preview |

| Austin, Shirlene, and Kris | Austin and Kris have broken up before and hope to rekindle their relationship. | Their earlier breakup came amid conflict involving Shirlene, who tells Austin she has had enough of Kris in an episode synopsis. |
| Chase, Lori, and Natasha | Chase and Natasha are engaged. | Natasha is troubled that Lori and Chase are often mistaken for a couple. |
These descriptions come from the September 2024 In Touch Weekly cast preview republished by Yahoo Entertainment. They describe the season’s setup, not verified relationship statuses today.
Matt and Kelly: dating again, with Kelly close by
Matt returns to the show single and trying to date. Kelly is part of that process, even joining him on some first dates. The preview quotes Kelly saying, “A girl that does not want to fight with me. I don’t want any competition.” She also says, “I’m determined to approach Matt’s love life differently” and describes her intended approach as “the kinder, gentler, more forgiving Kelly.”
