The ‘Real Housewives’ franchise has delivered some of the most memorable moments in modern Pop culture.
And recent years has seen the format expand to international regions.
Nigeria is the latest to join the mix, with the hotly anticipated launch of ‘The Real Housewives of Lagos.’
Set to launch April 8 on Showmax, the series invites viewers to follow the opulent lives of six glamorous Lagosian ladies.
Serving fashion, luxury, power plays, and of course drama, the show promises to deliver the flair the franchise is renowned for with its own Naija twist.
The cast featured are Carolyna Hutchings, Laura Ikeji, Chioma Ikokwu, Toyin Lawani-Adebayo, Iyabo Ojo, and Mariam Timmer.
Ahead of the show’s premiere, check out the first look trailer:

I wonder if the trans icon from there will be featured as a “friend of”.
I’d rather watch this instead of the upcoming season of RHOA. Air it in America please 😩😩😩😩
Those ladies are bleached to the high heavens LoL
Bleached bleached and more bleach 😬😬😬😬😬 The big face one look like if she smiled her face would just break off
Wives of Bleach and lace front
This leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Another set of women looking down on others until their true financial business is exposed. These women are bleached out and looks more European in a very unnatural way. Why do they hide their natural beauty? I think they could’ve done a better job at selecting Lagosian women who represent the African culture.
I agree with you on this one. when you say Lagos let’s see some real Lagos looking women, these barbies only look like people from the planet only God knows which.
Maybe now that a tiny part of the world will be watching this show the group of Nigerians that sit in internet cafe’s will slow down ripping Americans off with their internet scams.
It sounds like the ATL “Not” Housewives have a little competition. Sounds as if these women REALLY HAVE IT GOING ON. Disclaimer: no perpetrators allowed.
Why can’t they just leave the housewives franchise on Bravo. I’m not paying for another streaming service for one show. I didn’t do it for Miami on Peacock and I’m certainly not going to for Showmax. It’s disgustingly greedy.
I don’t know why they can’t have it on bravo. I’m not paying for another unknown streaming service for this. It’s disgustingly greedy. Nope.
Please dont air this. It looks bootleg and fake. Isn’t it the REAL housewives? If they are going to copy the franchise at least start out humble like all the rest of the housewives. These women with their borrowed clothes and hair and jewelry and cars just to make the show look better is FAKE. I WILL NOT BE WATCHING!!!!!!
