LeAnne Rimes and Eddie Cibrian –– who made headlines back in 2009 for falling for each other on set of their Lifetime movie Northern Lights, while still married to other people — are getting a TV show.

Though don’t expect them to join Bravo’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills with Cibrian’s ex,Brandi Glanville. “That would never cross my mind, not in a million years,” Rimes told People.

The couple, married since 2011, have dealt with a lot of scrutiny over the last five years, which led to Rimes entering rehab last year.

But don't call the new program a "reality show." “We’re doing a TV show based on our reality," Rimes said. "We’ll take things out of our lives and elaborate them and make them funny. People have been laughing at us — we want them to laugh with us.”

The singer, whose new album Spitfire will be released June 4, told Us Weekly, “I think people think we take ourselves so seriously, and it would be fun to be able to play with it, make fun of it, and have fun. Everyone seems to think they know who we are, but to be able to show that—but not have it be a reality show where cameras follow us around 24/7—would be so fun”.

The scripted show has yet to find a title or network. It will be the couple’s first collaboration together on the small screen since the Lifetime movie where they met.
