Drama, glamour and sisterhood reach new heights as participants in the popular reality TV
TV show, Real Housewives of Lagos and Real Housewives of Abuja, joined forces with other housewives from across Africa — Kenya (The Real Housewives of Nairobi) and South Africa (The Real Housewives of Durban, and The Real Housewives of Johannesburg) — and jet off for a new chapter under the Brazilian sun for an exciting new spin-off series, “Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Africa.”
Produced by GOAT Productions, the creative force behind Showmax Originals Unfollowed, Untied, and the South African Film and Television Award-winning Life With Kelly Khumalo Season 3, the show brings together eight housewives from Nigeria, Kenya, and South Africa for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure in the Samba country.
Representing The Real Housewives of Durban are Annie Mthembu (Seasons 1 — 3), Angel Ndlela (Season 4 and 5), and Jojo Robinson (Season 2 – 6), making her the most seasoned Housewife in the line-up.
Flying the Johannesburg flag high are Madam Evodia Mogase and Christall Kay, two of the OGs who helped launch the African Housewives phenomenon and became its first breakout stars in the continent.
Speaking, Executive Head, Channels and Content West Africa at MultiChoice, Atinuke Babatunde, said: “Our audiences have embraced The Real Housewives franchise with incredible enthusiasm, and this edition builds on that connection in a fresh and exciting way. With The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Africa, we are telling stories that reflect our shared experiences while celebrating African women and the rich diversity of the continent.”

With more than just a reality show, a celebration of African womanhood in all its power, diversity, and glamour, The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Africa promises to be an exciting blend of drama, glamour, and cultural exchange, with the housewives sharing their stories and experiences in the vibrant city of Brazil.”
