The ladies of The Real Housewives of Dubai are returning this summer and as fans react to the trailer, the Bravolebrities are joining in on the chatter. “I give one student an A for effort but I’ll make sure I flunk her in reunion,” said one of the desert divas.
The Real Housewives of Dubai season two premieres Sunday, June 2 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo and it’s already got X users talking.
As previously reported as the 11th city in the franchise, #RhoDubai continues to follow a group of lavish women as they run business empires and expertly navigate a highly exclusive social scene within an opulent oasis.
In season 2, Bravo reports that the flashy, fun, and fabulous ladies are back in the City of Gold and enjoying the oasis opulence that comes with it; even amid some big changes.
This year the women must balance new dynamics in the group, their demanding family lives, and their ever-growing successful businesses. Most noticeable, however, is a shift in alliances that makes the ladies question their loyalty to each other as some friendships are left in the desert dust.
Speaking of that shift, the trailer shows the fractured friendship between Lesa Milan and Chanel Ayan.
The former besties are at odds as Ayan grows closer to Caroline Stanbury.
“Lesa somebody stole your best friend,” remarks one of the girls while Lesa looks at the two cozying up to each other.
“Ayan’s jumping on this bandwagon, the only wagons I ride are G,” says the fashion designer in a confessional.
Later in the trailer, we meet the new free-spirited housewife, Taleen.
“I can get a little sassy, but like most of the time I’m classy,” she says.
Taleen is a friend of Caroline Brooks—but their friendship seems to be just as fractured as Lesa and Chanel’s.
“Are you challenging my husband?” asks Taleen in the trailer as Caroline argues with her man.
“Is your husband challenging me?!” retorts Caroline.
According to Caroline, there’s much more drama to come and she’s calling someone out on X for their behavior.
“I’m a peaceful person but those who wanna play silly games will win silly prizes,” she recently tweeted.
She also said that she’s already ready for the reunion, so she can “flunk” one of the “students” of Dubai.
The trailer also shows Stanbury and her husband Sergio discussing having a baby and Lesa is “not herself” amid speculation that her marriage has hit a rough patch.
