Hayu Orders The Real Housewives of London

NBCUniversal’s SVOD service Hayu has made its first commission of an original series with The Real Housewives of London, set to premiere on the service in late 2025.

Produced by Monkey (Made in Chelsea), The Real Housewives of London will mark the next installment of the long-running Real Housewives franchise. The series is scheduled to enter production in Q1 of 2025, as casting is currently underway.

“Tonight’s 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,” commented Hendrik McDermott, managing director of Hayu and EMEA networks and international direct-to-consumer for NBCUniversal. “It makes sense that such an iconic location in the U.K.—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.”

“We are delighted to bring fans The Real Housewives of London thanks to the new U.K. commission with Hayu,” said Helen Kruger Bratt, managing director of Monkey. “Hayu is the ideal destination for this well-loved reality series and will give audiences direct access to all the drama of this new set of British housewives. This is the 30th international iteration of the iconic Housewives format, and it’s safe to say the audience will not be disappointed!”
