- Bravo acquired "The Real Housewives of London" for U.S. broadcast, airing episodes weekly starting July 21 at 9 p.m. ET/PT before shifting to 8 p.m. with back-to-back episodes on Aug. 4.
- Peacock will make all episodes available to stream the day after they air on Bravo.
- The show, produced by Universal Television Alternative Studio U.K. Productions, originally premiered on UK streamer Hayu last year and features six London-based cast members: Juliet Angus, Amanda Cronin, Karen Loderick-Peace, Juliet Mayhew, Panthea Parker, and Nessie Welschinger.
- Season 2 has wrapped filming and is set to premiere on Hayu later this year, giving the U.S. version established source material to draw from.
- The announcement comes one week after Bravo paused the reboot of fellow U.K.-set reality show "Ladies of London" (titled "The New Reign"), which notably featured Mark-Francis Vandelli as the first man in a "Housewives"-style main cast.
- Cast member Juliet Angus previously appeared on the original "Ladies of London," which ran for three seasons on Bravo from 2014 to 2017 — a cross-franchise continuity the source flags without elaborating on.
Why it matters: Bravo is greenlighting a new U.K.-set Housewives property just one week after pausing its other London-based series, "The New Reign" — yet retained a cast member (Juliet Angus) who bridges both shows. With Season 2 already filmed for Hayu and full next-day Peacock streaming, the network gets a pre-built two-season pipeline without greenlighting from scratch.
