The Real Housewives of Nairobi, which will debut in 2023 as a Showmax Original, is the 22nd international version of The Real Housewives format and the sixth to be adapted in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The Real Housewives of Nairobi builds on the success of other African franchises like The Real Housewives of Johannesburg, which was one of the 10 most streamed domestic series on Showmax in 2019, as well as Durban (RHOD) and Lagos (RHOLagos), which both broke records on Showmax and were trending #1 on Twitter in their respective countries.<\/p>\n<p>Denise Mwende, Showmax Content Specialist in East Africa, said: \u201cAs an African streaming platform, Showmax is dedicated to telling diverse African stories, and celebrity reality TV remains a genre that excites our viewers across Africa. We love to watch other people\u2019s lives, and The Real Housewives of Nairobi is a chance to get a much closer look at Nairobi\u2019s elite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Real Housewives of Nairobi is being produced by Eugene Mbugua\u2019s D&amp;R Studios (formerly Young Rich Television), the production company behind Kenya\u2019s biggest docu-reality shows and Showmax favourites like the 2021 Kalasha nominee Sol Family; the 2021 Kalasha nominee and 2022 Africa Magic Viewers\u2019 Choice (AMVCA) nominee This Love; 2022 reality series Kyallo Kulture; 2018 Kalasha nominee Stori Yangu and 2019 Kalasha winner Our Perfect Wedding.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe team at D&amp;R Studios is very stoked about the opportunity to produce The Real Housewives of Nairobi,\u201d said Mbugua. \u201cWe\u2019ve had a long and good relationship with Showmax, and are very excited to now be working together on an international format. We\u2019ve gone through a very rigorous process of being shortlisted and are now geared up and ready to start production.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cD&amp;R Studios already has a portfolio of celebrity reality content like Sol Family, This Love and Kyallo Kulture under their belt. They understand the structure, and are willing to work hand in hand with our local teams and NBCUniversal to bring the Nairobi franchise to life,\u201d added Denise Mwende.<\/p>\n<p>On what the audience can expect with Nairobi, following the success of other African franchises, Mbugua said, \u201cThere\u2019s quite a bit of pressure from the audience to deliver a stellar show but if what we\u2019ve seen in the casting process is anything to go by, Nairobi promises to hold its own. Fans can expect surprises in everything, from the choice of the cast to the storylines. The Real Housewives of Nairobi is going to be the show to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As you wait for The Real Housewives of Nairobi, you can binge-watch these African franchises on Showmax: The Real Housewives of Lagos, The Real Housewives of Durban S1-2 and The Real Housewives of Johannesburg S1-2.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
