After years of problems and an entire reshoot and re-cast, the first ever local version of The Real Housewives of Johannesburg is set to debut on 1Magic next month. 

The Real Housewives is an American media franchise that consists of several reality television series broadcast on U.S network, Bravo and distributed internationally by NBCUniversal International Formats. They have series set in various cities such as New York, Beverly Hills, Potomac, Atlanta and now Johannesburg. 

With the latest addition to the franchise, viewers will be invited to take a look into the lives of the glamorous wealthy Johannesburg women who are part of the cast. "The reality series documents the highs and lows of the six fiery affluent characters, as they let Mzansi into their lives - from their luxurious homes to their prestigious family life," explained the channel in a statement.
