Hayu, the all-reality streaming service from NBCUniversal – which offers programming from Bravo, E! and Oxygen –hosted its first-ever Hayu FanFest in London this past weekend. 

The showcase event featured meet-and-greets with some of Hayu’s much-loved reality stars along with live panels and on-stage interviews, including Emmy Award-winning host and executive producer of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.

Following the packed, closing panel featuring Andy Cohen, Hayu wrapped the event with the announcement of its first-ever commission of an original series. Produced by Monkey, The Real Housewives of London will be the next installment in the immensely popular franchise and will premiere on the service in late 2025. 

"The announcement of The Real Housewives of London is Hayu’s first-ever commission of an original series and yet another key milestone in the growth story of our all-reality streaming service. It makes sense that such an iconic location in the UK – a core Hayu market – would feature into our strategy to further amplify our offering with original content that super-serves loyal fans. We look forward to being the exclusive home of this latest installment in the wildly popular The Real Housewives franchise."

— Hendrik McDermott, MD, Hayu, EMEA Networks & International Direct-To-Consumer, NBCUniversal

The series will go into production in Q1 2025 and casting is currently underway to find the perfect combination of personalities to showcase the glamour of living in the UK’s dynamic capital city. 

Hayu FanFest was the perfect venue to announce The Real Housewives of London to the platform’s loyal fans. The highly anticipated fan-focused event provided unprecedented access to reality TV royalty including Lisa Barlow (The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City); Southern Charm duo Craig Conover and Austen Kroll; Ashley Darby (The Real Housewives of Potomac); Sutton Stracke (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills); Jessel Taank (The Real Housewives of New York City) and Captain Sandy Yawn (Below Deck franchise).
