One pair is Chicago-based mom Kathy, 61, and daughter Cristina, 35, who refer to each other as their real “husbands,” much to the dismay of Cristina’s actual husband, Carlo.

The mom-and-daughter pair are among the show’s most colorful, and could easily fit into a show like “Jersey Shore.” They regularly spend all day together, snoop into the love life of Cristina’s sister together, and in Season 2, they’re even living under the same roof while Cristina and Carlo’s house gets remodeled.

Kathy is helping Cristina design their new kitchen, even though Carlo is indignant that he’s not getting any say in it. “I think I have a say in what’s going on at my house!” he fumed in last week’s episode.

But remodeling isn’t all they do as a duo. In this exclusive clip from the eighth episode of Season 2, called “She’s My World,” watch Kathy and Cristina go for a mother-daughter bikini wax.

“We’re just getting our patches waxed,” Cristina says, adding it will be her mother’s first-ever wax.

And yes, they requested to be in the same room — a first for the salon.

“sMothered” airs Sundays at 10 p.m. on TLC.
