At this moment there are 10 different American 'The Real Housewives' series and 13 international versions.

Then we have the incredible Ayanda Ncwane, who fans are already predicting will be the biggest star of this series.
She's an accomplished writer, president of the Africa Gospel Awards, and CEO of Ncwane Communications and Sfiso Ncwane Productions.

Next up is Nonku Williams, who is also one of the more unfamiliar faces, but don't get us wrong: she is not unknown.
She is also a businesswoman with her own wine brand!
Will the ladies all be sipping on some Ashes to Beauty wine during their gossip sessions? Maybe.
Nonkanyiso Conco is definitely the one fans know the least about but they are very excited to see what she brings to the table.
Although we all know that she was engaged to former President Jacob Zuma.
It seems like she and Ayanda are already getting friendly and could be close friends, but as with all these types of shows, we know that only time will tell...
