Get the Scoop on 'RHUGT: Ex-Wives Club' and Why It's Getting Bumped to 2024
Peacock's exclusive The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip is up and running with three seasons already aired and another two on the way. The franchise takes your favorite housewives from past and present and sends them on a chaotic vacation to parts unknown. Drinking, drama and usually skinny-dipping ensue.
Season 4 of the show subtitled "Ex-Wives Club" and starring only former housewives was announced back in January with an exciting lineup of women we thought might never return to the Bravo-verse. However, it's recently been announced that the seasons are swapping order and some housewives are heading home early, so what's going on?
Here's everything we know about The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Ex-Wives Club Season 5.
When does The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Season 5 premiere?
We don't have an official release date for Season 5. However we do know that Season 4: RHONY Legacy has been bumped up in the order even though it filmed later. RHONY Legacy will premiere on Peacock in December 2023, so Season 5 probably won't arrive until spring/summer 2024.
Who is in the cast of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Season 5?
Bravo
Brandi Glanville
There are few reality TV stars as legendary as Brandi Glanville. The boozy drama queen from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills only spent three seasons on the show as a main cast member (3-5) before exiting, but she's since become a reality TV staple appearing on The Apprentice, Celebrity Big Brother, The Traitors and Season 2 of RHUGT. Now she's back and apparently stirred up so much drama with Caroline Manzo that she sent the New Jersey housewife home early. Can't wait to watch!

Camille Grammer Meyer
Camille Grammer Meyer was one of the original Real Housewives of Beverly Hills but bowed out of the show after only two seasons. Back when "housewife" was actually an important credential for the show, Camille was the wife of actor Kelsey Grammer although their divorce was a plotline on the show. She's popped up on more recent seasons in guest roles, but this is her first return as a main cast member since 2012.
Bravo
Vicki Gunvalson
Vicki Gunvalson IS The Real Housewives of Orange County. She was not only one of the original housewives on the original season of the original franchise, but she also stuck around for 13 seasons, way longer than her compatriots. She's never really left the Bravosphere, however, appearing on Season 2 of RHUGT with Brandi, popping up on RHOC and now returning for her second stint on a Bravo vacation.
Bravo
Caroline Manzo
Caroline, like Camille, is coming out of Bravo retirement for this series. The OG Season 1 cast member from The Real Housewives of New Jersey hasn't made an appearance on the show since Season 5 when rumors were swirling about her family's connection to the mob. She's now back for RHUGT and ready to bring the drama.
Bravo
Eva Marcille
Despite her short two-season stay on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Eva made quite the impression. A fan favorite, the actress and model quickly earned herself a spot in the pantheon of greats and was invited back for Season 2 of RHUGT. She's now returning with several of her previous castmates. Oh, you also might know Eva as Eva Pigford, the winner of Cycle Three of America's Next Top Model.

Alex McCord
I'm very excited to see Alex McCord back on my TV screen. McCord was always the voice of reason on early seasons of The Real Housewives of New York City and brought a sense of sensibility up against the more chaotic women on the first four seasons. She's been relatively under the radar since, not often appearing in the Bravo world, so it will be interesting to see how she interacts with the likes of Brandi and Vicki who are ready to bring good TV.

Bravo
Phaedra Parks
Along with Eva, Phaedra will also be returning from The Real Housewives of Atlanta and The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Season 2 for Season 5. Phaedra was a staple of RHOA from Seasons 3-9 and will certainly be speaking her mind yet again with this cast.

Gretchen Rossi
Lastly, we have Vicki's onetime sparring partner Gretchen from The Real Housewives of Orange County. Gretchen appeared on the show from Season 4 to 8, but hasn't been on a Bravo show in a major capacity since. It will be interesting to see where her relationship with Vicki is and how the dolled up influencer will handle the other women.
