Love is in the air for four Real Housewives!
Luann De Lesseps (Real Housewives of New York), Gizelle Bryant and Ashley Darby (both from Real Housewives of Potomac), and Shannon Storms Beador (Real Housewives of Orange County) are headed to sunny Cabo San Lucas to film a new reality dating series, currently under the working title, Love Hotel.
According to People, production is set to begin in September and while no premiere date was given, it is expected to air sometime in 2025. The new romantic series will be in good company as the streamer is the home of Love Island USA, with host and fellow Bravoleb, Ariana Madix.
When de Lesseps, an OG of the Real Housewives, first joined the franchise she was married to Alexandre de Lesseps. The two had 2 children, Victoria and Noel. They divorced in 2009. She famously remarried Tom D’Agostino in 2016 on the series, but just as she was about to walk down the aisle, frenemy Bethenny Frankel dropped the now infamous tea that D’Agostino was cheating on her. The Countess divorced him shortly thereafter in 2017. Since then, she’s been linked to a variety of men – The Pirate, David Schwimmer lookalike, Jacques Azoulay, and Mary-Kate Olsen’s ex-husband, Olivier Sarkozy.
Bryant was married to minister Jamal Bryant from 2002-2009. The former couple have 3 children, eldest, Grace, and twins, Angel and Adore. The entire family has been featured in the Maryland-set franchise throughout the years, and while the Bryants gave it another shot at love in 2017, the reconciliation fizzled. Since then, the Reasonably Shady podcast host has been cozying up with model and former Winter House star Jason Cameron.
While Darby is technically still married to husband, Michael, the two released a statement in April 2022 that they would be separating after almost eight years of marriage. The Darbys have two young children, Dean Michael and Dylan Matthew. Just like her G&A athleisure partner, the singer orbited the Winter House in 2022 for her next romance with maple syrup enthusiast, Luke Gulbranson. By January 2023, things went south and the two went their separate ways.
Storms Beador lived up to her name as we saw her marriage come to an end with husband David. The former QVC host filed for divorced in late 2017 and settled by spring 2019. The two have three children – the oldest, Sophie, and twins, Stella and Adeline. She most recently dated John Janssen for 3 years, but called it quits for good after her DUI arrest in the fall of 2023. Janssen moved on with Storms Beador costar, Alexis Bellino.
All the ladies are going into this new series as single – let the games begin!
