Everything To Know About Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Season 3

After installments in Turks and Caicos and the Berkshires, Peacock’s The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip is heading to Asia for Season 3. The NBC streaming service confirmed the new location in a July 14 press release, touting the “wildly successful first two seasons” of the Real Housewives spin-off. Starring a new group of Housewives favorites, the third installment will feature said “cross-franchise icons” coming together to “jet off to exotic Thailand.”

In true Housewives fashion, there was some drama before the ladies even boarded their flight in the form of a reported last-minute cast change. And when they touched down in Thailand, the chaos didn’t stop, as seen in the newly revealed trailer. Here’s everything you need to know about RHUGT Season 3.

The RHUGT Season 3 Cast

Peacock’s announcement confirmed the Season 3 cast will include: The Real Housewives of Potomac’s Candiace Dillard Bassett and Gizelle Bryant, The Real Housewives of Miami’s Alexia Echevarria and Marysol Patton, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Heather Gay and Whitney Rose, The Real Housewives of New York City’s Leah McSweeney, and The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Porsha Williams. Less than a week later, Peacock and Bravo jointly shared the first RHUGT Season 3 cast photo in a July 20 Instagram post, which showed the women posing in front of several elephants in Thailand.

Before the cast announcement, multiple reports listed RHONY alum Tinsley Mortimer, not Porsha, as being part of the group. People reported on July 14, however, that Tinsley exited the production for “personal reasons,” citing an unnamed insider. The same day, Us Weekly elaborated via their own source that Tinsley “was asked to be on the show” several weeks earlier and “was excited.” However, she “already had plans for the summer that she couldn’t shift around to participate” in RHUGT, per the insider. Meanwhile, Deux Moi reported the real reason Tinsley left RHUGT is that she was cast on Bravo’s upcoming RHONY legacy series alongside Dorinda Medley, Jill Zarin, Sonja Morgan, Luann de Lesseps, and Kelly Bensimon.

Another potential source of drama? A source told Page Six that Porsha and Candiace were “expected to clash,” as the former sided with Monique Samuels in that explosive RHOP feud in 2019. “There’s going to be a lot of drama to unpack there,” the insider added. It’s worth noting that the women were standing side-by-side smiling in the July 20 cast photo.

Previous cast members included Luann de Lesseps, Cynthia Bailey, Kenya Moore, Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Kyle Richards, and Ramona Singer in Season 1. Then Season 2, which was subtitled Ex-Wives Club, starred Dorinda, Taylor Armstrong, Brandi Glanville, Jill Zarin, Eva Marcille, Phaedra Parks, Tamra Judge, and Vicki Gunvalson.

The RHUGT Season 3 Trailer

On Feb. 24, Peacock shared the RHUGT Season 3 trailer online, months after unveiling a sneak peek to fans at BravoCon, and as promised, there’s a lot of drama to unpack. No Housewife left their issues with each other at home, as Potomac’s Gizelle and Candiace keep battling over their Season 7 drama, and Salt Lake City’s Whitney and Heather prove Bad Weather is still in rocky territory. Even Miami’s rock-solid BFFs Alexia and Marysol get into it in a sprinter van (where else?). And while Atlanta’s Porsha and New York’s Leah didn’t come with their own castmates, they still don’t get along, leading to one of the funniest interactions in the trailer.

The RHUGT Season 3 Premiere Date

As announced on Feb. 24, RHUGT Season 3 will premiere on Peacock on March 23. The first three episodes will be available to stream that day, with new episodes streaming weekly on Thursdays.
