I Love a Mama’s Boy: Which Couples Are Still Together in 2026? (Scorecard)

It’s been nearly two years since the I Love a Mama’s Boy Season 4 finale — and with TLC still saying nothing about Season 5, the fandom has moved on to a more important question: which of these couples actually survived? Paternity tests, graveyard birthday parties, spoon-fed breakfasts — this show stress-tests relationships like nothing else on TV. Here is the 2026 couples scorecard, built from what the cast has actually said and done.

#1 — Still Going Strong: Matt & Devon (With a Kelly-Sized Caveat)

Just days ago, Matt McAdams did something nobody saw coming a year earlier: he sat down for The Sarah Fraser Show podcast alongside his mom Kelly and his girlfriend Devon — all three, together, in one interview. According to the episode listing, the trio tackled everything — the relationship, the messy breakup with ex Brittany, even rumors of a protective order filed by ex Kim. And the vibe? Going strong. Matt also shared an Instagram photo of the trio, writing that he and Devon were “so excited for the future” and “mom’s ready for the ride.” For a man whose last relationship ended with him admitting he “took a coward’s way out,” this is what growth looks like.

#2 — Still Together: Roberto & Kristy (The Paternity-Test Survivors)

Let’s be clear: this couple went through the single most explosive scene in show history — Nancy convincing Roberto to demand a paternity test on their own daughter Kimi, who came back 99.99% his. Kristy walked out and delivered the coldest line TLC has ever aired: “Who is she that I have to prove to her?” Roberto followed his wife out the door. According to reports, that’s where the story turned — the couple later distanced themselves from Nancy’s negativity and are still together. The lesson stuck.

#3 — Still Together: Jason & Justina (Wedding: Still Loading)

The longest road on this show might belong to Justina, who finally got to plan her long-overdue wedding to Jason — only to discover the wedding planner from hell was her future mother-in-law Annette, who wanted the wedding of her dreams. Jason spent the season diffusing instead of deciding, which is this family’s native language. But the couple stayed the course: according to reports, the wedding went forward and the two are still together. Verdict: together — though Annette presumably still has opinions about the centerpieces.

#4 — Over: Shekeb & Emily (Three Seasons Was Enough)

Three seasons. That’s how long Emily Chu fought for a man who kept choosing his mother Laila over her — the spoon-fed breakfasts, the infamous “Momma gonna die,” the dinner party where Laila showed up with Yussra, the mom-picked alternative. Recent interviews confirm what everyone saw coming: the couple is no longer together. Emily has leaned into an influencer life of fitness and fashion, looking, per fan consensus, visibly happier. Shekeb, according to reports, is focused on acting and recruiting work — and still extremely close with Laila. Some triangles never resolve.

#5 — Over: Tre & Abbey (And Mom Threw a Parade)

Tre’s relationship with Abbey crumbled under communication problems, boundary issues, and a mother, Lorenda, who reportedly celebrated the breakup on camera. Tre kept refusing to pick a side, and eventually the choice was made for him.

So here’s the scorecard: the franchise icon is loved up, the paternity-test couple survived, the wedding couple made it down the aisle. Now it’s your turn. If TLC greenlights Season 5 tomorrow, which couple deserves the spotlight? Are you Team Survivors — Matt & Devon, Roberto & Kristy — or Team Doomed, still mourning Shekeb & Emily? Drop your pick in the comments. No fence-sitting.
