The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

"These shorts? -just a little Valentino moment." "Those glasses? Did you know? 25000$."

Let's all be honest with ourselves; we've close to never heard stuff like this being thrown around at a casual kai-kai with your grand. Well, welcome to the world with no free lunches, over the top tea parties, 500000$ five year old's birthday celebrations, uptown celebrity family drama, vicious backstabbing, trips to Vegas and Palm Desert on the regular and weekly shopping sprees that come with a price tag higher than the average amount you'll ever spend on your education. Welcome- to the world of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, originally from the ABC Network.

The show was released in India in the month of June, 2020. It so far has only 2 seasons, as Netflix India wanted to test the waters first, and so far there is no news of the other seasons being released here, but let's spill the tea on this stat- an episode or two in, you are SO going to be hooked, and will be left wanting for more. The title speaks for itself as the reality show in itself is an expository, that showcases the real personalities of these uber-rich women, behind their façades of Chanel No. 5, Balenciaga pumps and Alexander McQueen ball gowns.

Season one revolves around the iconic group of Housewives- Camille Grammar, Taylor Armstrong, Adrienne Maloof, Lisa Vanderpump, Kyle Richards and Kim Richards. You'll be witness to the overly public and horrifying divorce of Camille Grammar with her husband Kelsey Grammar, a Broadway musical star- in which she's struggling for the custody of her children. You'll see Camille being insecure about being overshadowed by her ever so famous husband, which was the cause of a MASSIVE row between Kyle and Camille that led to a financial cliffhanger for a brief moment- which we're conveniently not specifying. One of the housewives goes into rehab by the end of season one and for a good while in season two. (P.S.- it's owing to alcoholism.) Which was caused by severe anxiety, and being overly-attached to her kids. Of course, there's no housewife drama without inter- housewife hostility, which shines throughout the season. Oh, and even though they're termed as housewives, they're excellent business women with multimillion dollar holdings, properties and gargantuan businesses. Despite having such successful careers, eye candies of husbands, wardrobes worth more than the city's taxes- some of these women think that by cleaning a chicken, it's meant that you need to take dish soap and give it a nice little bubble bath.

On an average, we'd like to give The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills 9 glasses of Chardonnay out of 10. Yes, it's really up there- consider it to be a MUST WATCH.
