Real Housewives of London: Cast, Premiere
The “Real Housewives” franchise is going international once again, with a new cast from a new location scheduled to hit screens later this year. The latest installment of the long-running reality TV juggernaut will be “Real Housewives of London.” But, fans won’t be able to watch this new series on Bravo. Here’s what you need to know.
“Real Housewives” fans in the United States are familiar with versions from various American locations, including New York, Orange County, Beverly Hills, and New Jersey, among others. The American reality franchise has expanded internationally with “Real Housewives of Dubai.” However, fans may not be aware that there are even more iterations abroad that are not aired on Bravo or streamed on Peacock.
Production firm Monkey is responsible for the UK versions of the iconic “Housewives” format. They include “Real Housewives of Cheshire,” and “Real Housewives of Jersey.” There are also “Real Housewives” shows in locations like South Africa, Canada, and Australia. The “Real Housewives of London” will actually be the 30th international iteration overall.
When it premieres in late 2025, “Real Housewives of London” will be available to watch on Comcast NBCUniversal’s reality TV streamer Hayu, which is available in 45 markets outside of the United States. As explained at the recent Hayu FanFest in London (the British version of BravoCon), the new series will be the first-ever original for Hayu.
The “Real Housewives of London” will be “the next installment in the immensely popular franchise and will premiere on the service in late 2025,” per a statement in The Hollywood Reporter.
