E4 BUILD ON AUSTRALIAN SUCCESS WITH WIFE SWAP

The reality TV show heads to Australia, seeing couples from different backgrounds temporarily switch spouses as they navigate emotive issues such as politics, class, gender and race.

The end result is eye-opening and emotionally charged and - ultimately - where life lessons from both wives, families and children, are shared and learned. The opening episode see Elle, a glamorous Gold Coast Mum who's obsessed with fashion, makeup, and taking selfies, swap lives with Sheree, a simple, salt of the earth country Queenslander who lives in rural Gin Gin, and devotes her entire day to cooking, cleaning and looking after her children and grandchildren.

Wife Swap Australia begins Thursday 18th February at 10:15pm on E4.
