Hayu welcomes back The Real Housewives of Orange County

The nineteenth series of The Real Housewives of Orange County comes to streaming service Hayu next month…

Housewives Shannon Storms Beador, Heather Dubrow, Tamra Judge, Gina Kirschenheiter, Emily Simpson, Jennifer Pedranti and Katie Ginella return for an unforgettable run of episodes as the ladies set out to uncover the truth, restore trust, heal broken bonds and everything that lies between. Familiar face Gretchen Rossi (s4-8) will step back into the mix, joining this year as a friend of the show and regulars.

The Real Housewives of Orange County will be available to stream on Hayu from July 11th, kicking off with a supersized premiere episode.

Coming up: With her ex finally in the rear-view mirror, Shannon Storms Beador is bouncing back stronger than ever. Single and selectively ready to mingle, Shannon has been spotted around Orange County having fun and being dubbed the “Kissing Bandit of Corona Del Mar.”

After taking one step forward with Tamra at the reunion, their rollercoaster relationship continues to take more steps backward. Shannon’s newfound friendship with Katie catches everyone by surprise until a revelation threatens the group dynamics to the point of no return.

Heather Dubrow is living her best penthouse life, but in Orange County she finds her role as peacekeeper challenged, along with her friendship with Tamra. Always striving to be the best mum to her children, she continues to provide guidance through their milestones and show support for the LGBTQ+ community.

Tamra Judge finds herself in an emotional place as she unlocks past trauma in therapy, prepares for daughter Sophia to leave the nest and navigates her very close friend and confidant’s cancer diagnosis. With a desire to change her explosive reactions to charged situations, Tamra navigates shifting friendships within the group, but runs into the ultimate test when Gretchen Rossi returns to deal with some unfinished business.

Gina Kirschenheiter has a new perspective on life and takes a big step forward in her relationship with Travis as they move back in together. After ex-husband Matt suffers a heart attack, Gina embraces living in the moment. In the friend group, she sets her sights on exposing lies and righting the wrongs.

Emily Simpson takes on one of the biggest challenges of her life when one of her sons is diagnosed with a rare medical condition. Emotionally drained, Emily has a hard time making the space to mend things with Katie after losing her trust last season. Emily’s loyalty is tested when her friend Gretchen enters the group and causes issues with her friendship with Tamra.

With the chatter and rumours now behind them, Jennifer Pedranti and fiancé Ryan start to plan the bikini-clad wedding of their dreams while also preparing to send off her son to the Marines. While Jennifer has a lot to unpack with Tamra, she finds camaraderie with gal pal Gretchen and deepens her relationships with Shannon and Heather. When rumors come to light and shake the group to its core, Jennifer is torn between loyalty and truth.

Recently moved into a new house in Newport Beach, Katie Ginella continues her strong friendship with Jennifer and starts to form a connection with Gretchen. She quickly realises she isn’t on solid ground as her friendships start to deteriorate and finds herself backed into several corners. Katie’s apology tour morphs into an uphill battle when all of her actions and motives are questioned.

After a 12-year hiatus, Gretchen Rossi makes her return to the group through new friends Jennifer and Katie, but she finds herself stuck dealing with the same old issues with Tamra. Their problems get amplified when a new story from an unlikely source causes a chain reaction forever shifting the dynamics of the friend group.

The Real Housewives of Orange County is produced by 32 Flavors Entertainment and Evolution Media, an Amazon MGM Studios Company.
