LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Matt McAdams is all set to return to 'I Love A Mama's Boy' Season 4 with a new love interest. Matt is currently living in Sacramento, California, and enjoying his luxurious lifestyle. However, Matt has recently found himself in the spotlight after his ex-fiance Kimberly Cobb filed for a protective order for domestic abuse against Matt in February 2022.

However, Kim's mother Nicole Schnehimider doubled down on the accusation and slammed the TLC network for giving a platform to an 'abuser'. Nicole further noted that she had also witnessed Matt's history of violence. She backed up her claims with court documents and revealed that Matt's outburst in the Season 2 finale was just a glimpse of his aggressive behavior. Nicole called Matt a narcissist, emotionally and physically controlling. While Kim was restricted from publicly sharing details, her mother took it upon herself to expose Matt’s behavior. Additionally, she also claimed that TLC ended Kim's contract after she accused Matt of physical abuse.

Why did 'I Love A Mama's Boy' stars Matt McAdams and Kimberly Cobb split?

'I Love A Mama's Boy' Season 4 stars Matt McAdams and Kimberly Cobb had been in a relationship for four years and their whirlwind romance was documented on Season 2 of the TLC show. However, the couple got separated after Kim was frustrated by Matt's mother Kelly McAdams as she scrutinized every detail of their lives.

Kim previously revealed that she received a huge job offer in Austin, Texas, and had to move to the new state. Matt, however, was not prepared to move to a new state without his mother, leading to their separation. However, Kim later revealed the real reason for the split during an IG Q&A session and said, "It was the lack of support, respect, and honesty." She further noted that the real "nail in the coffin" was being cursed out in public.
