The global Real Housewives franchise is expanding its reach with an African twist as stars from Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa head to Brazil for the first-ever Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Africa. The highly anticipated series, produced by GOAT Productions in collaboration with Showmax, promises luxury, laughter and a celebration of African sisterhood.

Leading the Nigerian cast are Mariam Timmer of The Real Housewives of Lagos and Princess Jecoco from The Real Housewives of Abuja. Kenya’s representation includes Dr Catherine Masitsa and Zena Nyambu, both celebrated entrepreneurs and lifestyle influencers. From South Africa come Annie Mthembu, Jojo Robinson, Angel Ndlela, Christall Kay, and fan favourite Madam Evodia Mogase, all ready to bring the signature flair that defines the franchise.

Set in the vibrant and exotic backdrop of Brazil, the new spin-off merges the energy of African pop culture with the beauty and rhythm of Latin America. Producers describe the show as “a blend of bold personalities, cultural expression, and unfiltered authenticity,” bringing a truly Pan-African perspective to the global series.

According to Showmax, the show will premiere on November 28, 2025, with a follow-up airing on Mzansi Magic for South African viewers on November 29. Each episode will take fans inside luxury villas, high-end shopping trips, heated conversations, and unforgettable cultural experiences—all captured through the lens of modern African women living large.

With filming already completed in Brazil, anticipation is growing online. Fans across the continent have taken to social media to share excitement about the rare mix of West, East and Southern African housewives sharing one screen.

The series promises to redefine African reality television by celebrating diversity, empowerment, and cross-cultural connection. For lovers of drama and style, Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Africa is shaping up to be the continent’s next big pop-culture moment.
