The first trailer for “The Real Housewives of London” has officially dropped, and it’s every bit as cheeky, glamorous, and scandalous as you’d hope. From royal garden parties to castle dinners gone awry, this new addition to the Real Housewives franchise is already turning heads.
But if you’re in the U.S., you might be wondering how to catch all the British drama. The show premieres exclusively on Hayu, not Bravo, a streaming service that isn’t directly available in the States. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered on how to watch.
What’s in the ‘Real Housewives of London’ Trailer?
In classic Housewives fashion, the trailer doesn’t hold back. One scene already making headlines features cast member Panthea Parker on her way to a royal event at Buckingham Palace, threatening to ask King Charles directly about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
“I’m going to go up to the king and go, ‘How do you feel about Harry and what he did?’” she says. Her husband Ed Parker, a British lawyer, quickly shuts that down: “It says, specifically, ‘Do not ask the monarch about Harry and Meghan.’”
Alongside Parker, the cast includes Juliet Angus, Amanda Cronin, Karen Loderick-Peace, Juliet Mayhew, and Nessie Welschinger. This 10-episode season promises cast trips to Scotland, lavish dinner parties, royal run-ins, and surprise cameos, including appearances from “Real Housewives of Dubai’s” Caroline Stanbury and RHONY alum Dorinda Medley.
How to Watch Hayu in the U.S.
There is a bit of a catch for American viewers who want to watch “Real Housewives of London.” Hayu is a UK-based streaming service, and it’s currently not available in the United States. However, using a VPN is a simple workaround. Here’s how to stream “Real Housewives of London” on Hayu if you live in the U.S.
- Choose a trusted VPN service with UK servers.
- Download and install the VPN on your device.
- Connect to a server in the United Kingdom.
- Visit the Hayu website or app and create an account or log in.
- Start streaming and enjoy the tea (both British and metaphorical).
Why You Need a VPN to Watch ‘Real Housewives of London’
Because of licensing and distribution restrictions, Hayu blocks access to users outside approved regions like the UK and Canada. Attempting to stream from an American IP address will trigger an error message that says “This content is not available in your location.”
A VPN works by masking your real location and giving you a UK-based IP address. This lets you bypass geo-restrictions and access the full Hayu library — including all things “Real Housewives of London.”
“The Real Housewives of London” premieres Monday, August 18 on Hayu in the UK. While no U.S. release date has been announced yet, American fans can stream it on day one by following the steps above.
