Are you feeling expensive The Real Housewives of Melbourne is coming next year. The first series will be comprised of ten, one hour episodes and is being produced by Matchbox Pictures (those of Underground, Next Stop Hollywood and The Straits) in conjunction with Foxtel.
Foxtel director of TV Brian Walsh explained in a release to the press that Melbourne was chosen because it had the best, and most extravagant talent. Internationally, the Real Housewives franchise has expanded to include France, Israel and Athens.
From Foxtel’s release, here are Australia’s first set of Real Housewives:
Andrea Moss – Former New York television journalist who now lives in Toorak, shops in Toorak and runs a multi-million dollar plastic surgery and cosmetic medicine business in Toorak. She is co-founder of the Liberty Belle Skin Centre and her husband, Dr. Chris Moss, is regarded as one of the world’s finest facial plastic surgeons. When she’s not busy managing both businesses and various property developments she’s loving being a mum to her three children under 11.
Gina Liano – Her looks, flamboyance and sense of style cannot hide her love of fashion which is a creative relief from her day job as one of Melbourne’s top barristers.
