The Real Housewives of Durban Season 2
The Real Housewives of Durban returns for S2 – here’s where to watch the episodes, plus info on the premiere date and who’s who in the cast.
The Real Housewives of Durban Season 2 episode 1 launched only on Showmax on 28 January 2022, and new episodes will continue to land every Friday.
RHOD S2 is the 24th international – and third South African – instalment of The Real Housewives franchise, which is distributed internationally by NBCUniversal formats, a division of Universal Studio Group. The new season is set to build on the popularity of Season 1, which held the record for most first-day views on Showmax at the time of launch.
The Real Housewives of Durban S1 took viewers by storm
In Season 1 we were introduced to eThekwini queens Nonkanyiso Conco (LaConco), Ayanda Ncwane, Sorisha Naidoo, Kgomotso Ndungane, Nonku Williams and Annie Mthembu, a group of ambitious women with their own business empires. While lavish lifestyles, high fashion and glamour were the order of the day, the housewives also dealt with personality clashes, parenting challenges and other everyday struggles.
In Season 2, LaConco, Sorisha, Nonku and Annie returned, and were joined by Jojo Robinson, Londie London and Thobile MaKhumalo Mseleku. (Find out more about the seven queens who will be gracing our screens in Season 2 in the blocks below.)
The highlights of Season 1 included the explosive first episode; LaConco’s spicy moments; Ayanda’s recollection of her husband’s death; Nonku’s emotional scene at Sifiso Ncwane’s grave; their various successful and disastrous hosting events and of course, The Real Housewives of Durban reunion episodes.
The build-up to and the aftermath of the reunion episodes showed that there were some unresolved issues between a few of the housewives. Kgomotso Ndungane, for example, was absent from the two-part reunion.
Season 1 of The Real Housewives of Durban gave fans a taste of what to expect in seasons to follow.
