Wahlbergs' fambiz to star in reality TV show

Hollywood A-list brothers Mark and Donnie Wahlberg are to star in the latest reality series to document the ins and outs of running a family business.

Wahlburgers, due to air from January next year, will feature the pair, alongside their brother Paul, who is the chief executive of the family's Massachusetts diner – which shares its name with the reality series. Their mother, Alma, will also appear on the show, which will screen on US cable network A&E.

The family restaurant opened in 2011, and is due to expand to Canada next year.

Family businesses have already been a focus of several other successful reality series, including Duck Dynasty, which follows Duck Commander's Robertson family, and Cake Boss, which follows the second-gens of Carlo's Bake Shop.
