MultiChoice, a Canal Plus company, is set to launch a new dating reality television show, "Heartbeat," premiering on Sunday, January 11, 2026, on Africa Magic Showcase (DStv Channel 151). The show will follow ten singles as they search for love.
The 12-week series will feature five men and five women living in a specially designed "love pad," where cameras will capture their interactions. Through various games and activities, the participants will get to know each other, offering viewers a blend of romance and drama.
Atinuke Babatunde, Executive Head of Content and Channels, West Africa, MultiChoice, expressed excitement about the show. "This show is more than just a search for love; it is an exploration of genuine human connection," Babatunde said. "We are confident that the journeys of these 10 singles will resonate deeply with our audience."
The season will culminate in couples deciding whether to offer a "Promise Lock," a symbolic pledge to continue their relationship. "Heartbeat" aims to become a must-watch dating reality series, reinforcing MultiChoice's commitment to Africa-centered storytelling.
