In TV One original Three's Complicated a mother and daughter are unknowingly caught up in a love triangle

SILVER SPRING, MD –  TV One‘s latest original film, THREE’S COMPLICATED will premiere on Sunday, January 13, 2019 at 7 p.m. ET/6C, followed by encores at 9 p.m. ET/8C and 11 p.m. ET/10C. The project is executive produced by Shanola Hampton (Shameless) who stars as the film’s central character Deja, a 42-year-old divorcee who ends up in a precarious dating scenario with a younger man who may also be hooking up with her college-aged daughter.  Also starring Tyler Lepley (Ringside, The Haves and The Have Nots), Kyanna Simone Simpson (The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks) and Charles Malik Whitfield (The Temptations), the film chronicles Deja’s complicated love story and takes a humorous look at a so-called dating taboo: romantic liaisons between older women and younger men.

It all begins when Deja is passed over at work and decides on a night out at the bar to drown her sorrows. She ends up having a weekend fling with Sonny (Lepley), a young, attractive man ten years her junior.  Deja moves on, but discovers that her daughter Eleni (Simpson) knows Sonny from school and has serious romantic designs on the handsome teacher’s assistant.  Deja is struggling to control her attraction and protect her daughter’s heart. Meanwhile, her ex-husband Craig (Whitfield) complicates things even further when he re-enters the picture seeking a reconciliation. Conflicted and uncertain, Deja finds herself in a complex love triangle that brings her to the brink of heartbreak or new beginnings.
