Ethan and Esther are a mother and son duo that are featured on TLC’s I Love a Mama’s Boy.

They are known for their flirty interactions, with Ethan even slapping his mother’s backside at one point.

In the most recent episode of the reality show, things took a turn for the worse when Ethan made some inappropriate comments during a rehearsal for the mother-son dance at his wedding.

Esther and Ethan have a unique way of communicating that others may find flirtatious.

For example, as soon as Ethan enters the room, Esther says, “Look how handsome!” In response, Ethan says, “You’re so s**y.” He then reaches up to fix his mother’s hair and his mother says, “How about a kiss for good luck?” as she puckers her lips and moves her head up.

Ethan has openly admitted that he thinks his mother is “hot”.

“I’ll be the first one to admit it,” says Ethan during the show.

“I obviously don’t look at her in a s**ual way, but I put her up on a pedestal for sure.” However, their behavior has raised eyebrows among viewers who find their dynamic inappropriate.

During the rehearsal for the mother-son dance, Ethan made some suggestive comments that left the dance instructor feeling uncomfortable.

He even slapped his mother’s behind and told her to “grind” on him.

When looking for a song to dance to, Ethan said he wanted to dance to “s**ual Healing.” When speaking to the dance instructor about the performance, Ethan said, “We want it to be romantic, s**ual, sensual, everything.”

The instructor didn’t really know if their behavior was serious or a joke.

Either way, it was a questionable way for a mother and son to behave.

“I was like, ‘What?’ says Jose, the instructor.

“I think he was joking but I think he might not have been joking, too.

So, who knows?”

Esther says her relationship with Ethan is a “special” one.

“Ethan and I have a very special relationship,” says Esther.

“Ethan and I like to do a lot of things together.” Esther says some of the activities they do together include bike riding and swimming.

Esther likes being around Ethan “all the time” and even pops his back pimples for him.

“You can always come home.

Mommy will always get those for you,” says Esther.”

Esther takes her role as a mother seriously.

She doesn’t believe her job is done once her son reaches a certain age.

She believes that being a mother is a lifelong commitment.

“Being a mom, it’s not something I signed up for to say, ‘Oh, you’re 18, you’re 20, you know, you’re on your own,’ she says.

“Until I take my last breath, I’m a mother, and that’s first and foremost.”

While some may find their behavior to be inappropriate, others may view it as harmless.

Regardless, it is clear that Esther and Ethan have a unique bond that is unlike any other mother and son duo.

However, it remains to be seen whether their actions will have any consequences in the future.
