Real Housewives of London drops first drama-filled trailer: ‘Go back to Paddington’

The first trailer for Hayu’s Real Housewives of London spinoff has landed – and honey, London Bridge is falling down under the weight of all this drama.

As the thirtieth instalment of the iconic Real Housewives franchise, The Real Housewives of London has some big heels to fill – but after the first trailer dropped (15 July), fans need not be worried.

“From Belgravia to Chelsea, these women balance ambition, family and fierce friendships – all while living life at full volume,” the official synopsis teases.

“Whether hosting lavish dinners, escaping to a Scottish castle, or rebuilding bonds over bottles of champagne, they’re navigating life, legacy and loyalty in a city where wealth whispers and grudges roar.”

With a glittering cast and the promise of some very posh screaming matches, we’re ready.

Who is on the cast of The Real Housewives of London?

For the first season of The Real Housewives of London, six fierce women at the top of their game – professionally and socially – are painting the town red, white and blue.

The cast features Juliet Angus, a Chicago Native global brand partner and former fashion publicist, Amanda Cronin, a model turned entrepreneur with a skincare brand, an aesthetics and wellness clinic in Belgravia and close friendships with franchise juggernauts Dorinda Medley (RHONY) and Meredith Marks (RHOSLC).

They’re joined by Karen Loderick-Peace, a Jamaican-born former Real Housewife of Jersey preparing to launch her own fashion label and Australian native, former Miss Galaxy Universe and creative producer Juliet Mayhew.

Panthea Parker, a formidable socialite known for her jet-setting lifestyle and glamorous social circles, also joins the cast, as does Nessie Welschinger. Nessie is the former Head of Global & International Equity FMAs at Schroders and now runs the Chelsea Cake Company – the same one that supplied the late Queen Elizabeth II one of her 90th birthday ackes.

Watch the first trailer for The Real Housewives of London

The first look at The Real Housewives of London is serving up more than tea, darling.

Within the first few seconds of the trailer, Amanda says, “You’re just a chronic liar and an insecure tw*t”, Panthea says, “She realises her best friend can change like Jekyll and Hyde,” and Juliet asks: “Does money make you happy?”

Basically, we’re in for a ride – and not on a double-decker.

Watch the first trailer for The Real Housewives of London here:

There’s social events, diamond bracelets breaking, tennis matches (verbal and physical), recommendations of facelifts, the mention of massive divorce settlements – and audiences with the King. Yeah, King Charles III of England.

Then there’s also arguments over brunch, arguments in hotel rooms and an instantly iconic insult from Amanda: “Go back to Paddington”.

The Real Housewives of London has also confirmed its premiere date – 18 August – and will be available to stream on Hayu, with episodes dropping weekly.

After ten episodes, a reunion special will be hosted by comedian and icon Katherine Ryan.
