About Private Lives
Whilst on their honeymoons in the South of France with their new partners, ex-spouses, Amanda and Eloy, find that they have booked hotel rooms are next to one another...
As they navigate this shocking reunion, and old flames begin to rekindle, Amanda and Elyot are forced to face a difficult choice, do they confront their true feelings for each other, or do they forget that there is a real possibility that they may have made a pair of mistaken marriages? Driven by passion and determination, the divorcees attempt to escape their partners and flee to Amanda's apartment in Paris, to pick up where they left off with the vicious slanging match…but maybe this time it’ll be a fairytale romance.
