INTIMACY CONSULTANCY

Tommy Ross-Williams works as an intimacy consultant across unscripted and reality television. They were the first Intimacy Coordinator to be employed by a UK dating show, supporting the development of consent-based practice within a reality format.

While most intimacy coordination work sits within scripted drama, Tommy has been pioneering what intimacy consultancy can look like in unscripted formats, where consent is ongoing, situations evolve in real time, and contributors are not trained performers. Their work centres on advising productions on consent-based practice, contributor welfare, and ethical approaches to intimacy within unscripted and reality TV.

Tommy was brought on as an intimacy consultant for Dating Naked UK (MTV / Paramount+), working across casting, pre-production, shoot, post-production and promo. The role and its impact were featured in Broadcast and since then Tommy has gone on to work as the first ever intimacy consultant on Love Is Blind (Netflix) and Married at First Sight (Channel 4) for their UK series,

Their current focus centres on developing best practice and expanding what intimacy consultancy can look like within a rapidly evolving area of television, with an emphasis on embedding consent and welfare as an integral part of the production process.
