Today, Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) announced the premiere date for the seventh season of its hit reality series Able to Love. Starting on January 6, the show returns to Miami, where an all-new forged of 16 hopeful singles will meet, interact, date, eliminate unfavorable prospects, and ultimately determine that are truly able to love. 

Over the course of 14 weekly installments love triangles and broken hearts will threaten – and strengthen – budding romances, as only the strongest connections will remain intact. Hosted by Tommy Miles, this season of Able to Love will air the show’s one hundredth episode and can mark the occasion with a special celebrating its success at helping Black men and ladies navigate the singles scene to seek out lasting relationships.

“Able to Love‘s average viewership has grown across all key demos in each of the past 2 years, where it has anchored our strong Friday night unscripted lineup,” said Tina Perry, OWN President. “Total viewership is up greater than 20% over that period too, making it certainly one of the network’s most watched shows and an audience favorite.  We sit up for the continued success of this series and we’re excited to showcase hopeful love and relationships in our programming.”

The show is executive produced by Will Packer of Will Packer Media, and Jeff Spangler and Rob LaPlante of Lighthearted Entertainment. Anthony Sylvester and Angela Fitts function executive producers for Lighthearted Entertainment.

“It’s rare for a long-running series to proceed growing its audience, but that’s exactly what Able to Love is doing,” said Packer. “We keep the show fresh, exciting and real by bringing together the proper mixture of singles who’re committed to finding love, and this season our Miami hopefuls get all the way down to business right out of the gate.  Whether you’re a longtime Able to Love fan or recent to our viewing family, we’ve got an amazing recent season in store.”

Season 7 of the favored dating series Able to Love will debut Friday, January 6 at 8 PM EST | 7 PM CST on OWN.
