The Unbelievable True Story of Con Mum Coming To Netflix

Netflix's latest true crime documentary Con Mum

Netflix has released the trailer for its documentary Con Mum, which will be available later this month. You can watch it below!

Millionaire, Manipulator, Mum? Is Senior citizen Dionne looking for her long-lost son — or simply trying to pull off the mother of all deceptions. Meet CON MUM only on Netflix. 

Con Mum is the extraordinary story about a chef whose life is upended when a jet-setting, champagne-sipping, hotel-hopping woman claims to be his long-lost mother.

In July 2020, TV pastry chef and co-founder of Longboys Doughnuts, Graham Hornigold, received a message that he had been waiting for all his life. The email was from a woman called Dionne who said that she was searching for her son who had been taken away from her aged two. Less than a week later Graham is sitting in the penthouse of a Liverpool hotel drinking champagne and building a relationship with the mum he thought he’d never get to meet. A successful business woman, Dionne introduces Graham to an opulent lifestyle but after a whirlwind few months, Graham begins to wonder if all that glitters isn’t gold – and whether Dionne is truly his long lost mum.
