==Reception==
Jonathon Wilson of Ready Steady Cut graded the TV series with 3 stars out of 5 and criticised the series writing, "Both its character drama and its rather fanciful depiction of high-class matchmaking — including human chess boards and masquerade balls — can border on silly.". Summarising his review Wilson said that "''Remarriage & Desires'' runs the risk of being a bit too melodramatic for its own good, but its handsome production and intriguing revenge plot just about do the job."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://readysteadycut.com/2022/07/15/remarriage-desires-season-1-review-a-soapy-melodramatic-tale-of-revenge/ |title=Remarriage & Desires Season 1 review – a soapy, melodramatic tale of revenge|author= Jonathon Wilson|website=Ready Steady Cut|date=July 15, 2022|access-date=July 15, 2022|language=en}}</ref> Kate Sánchez writing in Butwhythopodcast termed the series "a thrilling ride with eight episodes that push the pedal to the floor and never lets up."
