TikTok meets Real Housewives in nepo baby drama
With Clare Rigden sick this week — no doubt bingeing a stack of excellent shows to report back on (between well-deserved naps) — it feels like the right time to reflect on my own go-to sick-day viewing. Watching TV while sick is a very different beast to your usual screen time. The shows don't need to grip you completely because you'll be drifting in and out of sleep, missing scenes between coughing fits and nose-blowing. There will be no Emmy nominations in this line-up, and chances are the shows will fall into either a guilty pleasure or hate-watch category. During a recent bout of the flu, I dove into The Real Housewives universe. And wow, what a world it was. We're talking handbags worth more than the average Aussie's annual salary, drama that veers from petty bickering to near fist fights, and housewives actually going to jail for real-life crimes. It's unhinged — and sick me couldn't get enough. While I'm saving the rest of RHOSLC for my next sick day, I have continued dipping into Next Gen NYC as it drops weekly on Hayu. Please don't judge me — I also watch Severance, The Studio, Hacks and all the other highbrow stuff. I have some taste. But if, like me, you need a bit of sugar with all that substance, this series delivers. It follows 'a tangled web of friends raised in the spotlight — or at least close enough for good lighting — as they stumble into adulthood one brunch, break-up and spontaneous decision at a time'. It's like if TikTok and the Housewives had a baby. Literally. The show features the children of some of the franchise's most iconic reality mums, and they're putting their parents to shame, shouting their way through their own chaotic episodes. There are characters being called 'dirt poor' because they don't get a $10k allowance from their parents, arguments over who should foot the $14k bill for a nightclub booth, and a full-blown spat over . . . something I've already forgotten (but felt very important at the time). And yet, it's all set against an iconic New York backdrop, has flashes of genuine friendship and surprising glimmers of growth. Sick or not, it's the kind of show that lets you switch your brain off — and sometimes, that's exactly what you need. Get well soon Clare! This creepy horror is currently streaming on Binge. Credit: Universal Pictures Australia / TheWest While we're talking nepo babies, this vampire horror featuring Lily-Rose Depp (daughter of Johnny Depp and singer-model Vanessa Paradis) and Bill Skarsgard (son of actor Stellan Skarsgard) is dropping on Binge. This is one you'll want to watch at full health, phone face down with all the lights on. Everyone's favourite angry chef is back with Gordon Ramsay's Secret Service. Credit: Supplied Back bef or e there was streaming and we had to hope something decent was on TV or that our pocket money could cover a new release at the video shop, it was always a great day when you stumbled across a Gordon Ramsay show. Whether he was calling someone an idiot sandwich, saving a restaurant that didn't particularly appreciate his style of tough love or making rising chefs reconsider their career path, it was nothing if not entertaining. It's fair to say he's softened a little over the years, so it will be interesting to see how spicy his new series is. This time Ramsay sends an insider undercover at a struggling restaurant who squirrels out information back to him. What could go wrong except for, well, everything. Ingrid (Sally Phillips), Austin (Michael Theo) and Julian (Ben Miller) are all back for season two of Austin. Credit: Supplied For viewing that feels like a warm hug, it's hard to go past this lovely show starring Michael Theo, Sally Phillips, Ben Miller and Perth's Claire Lovering. Season two picks back up on Austin's Game Of Scones: Doing Britain On The Spectrum (my book club would read that!) snapped up by a publisher before the newfound fame goes to his head. Can't wait to jump in the back seat with Claudia Karvan and Steph Tisdell for Great Australian Road Trips. Credit: Supplied There is nothing like a road trip to really get to know someone — the good, the bad and the 'let me out here please' — though we can't imagine there will be any of the latter between the hosts of this new series. Claudia Karvan joins Steph Tisdell while Melissa Leong is in the driver's seat with Nazeem Hussain as they take on some of Australia's best drives, including the Great Barrier Reef Drive in Queensland to Kangaroo Island in South Australia.

Is Heather Dubrow Leaving RHOC After Season 19? She Says…
We're only a few episodes into The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 19, but some people are already thinking about Season 20. Rumors have been swirling that Heather Dubrow could be exiting ahead of the landmark season, but is there any truth to that? She recently weighed in. Heather Dubrow reacts to rumors she's quitting The Real Housewives of Orange County Heather has been getting hit with rumors about her status on RHOC pretty much since the day she returned for Season 16. She and Terry Dubrow bought that huge house in Beverly Hills, and we all assumed she was trying to trade in her orange for a diamond. As the drama heats up on Season 19, a new report has been floating around on social media that this will be Heather's last season. During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Heather admitted that she had heard those rumors, but there's no truth to them. 'I saw that too, and I was like, 'Wow,'' Heather said. 'I'll tell you this: If there's an announcement to be made, you're going to hear it from me, and there's no announcement.' That's pretty clear, right? And if you're questioning her status on RHOC because she lives in Los Angeles, she had an answer for that, too. According to her, it's not a hassle to commute back to Orange County. She's still got roots there. 'My friends are there. We go back and forth. Terry's mom lives there,' Heather explained. 'What's always so funny is this distance thing. It can take as long to get from Newport Beach to Coto as it does Newport Beach to LA.' With that said, Heather did tease that at the end of the season, something happened that made her feel uncomfortable. However, she reiterated that she 'loves the platform' that Housewives has given her family, and if she's going to leave, you'll hear it from her first. The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Thursdays at 9/8c. It streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland. TELL US – DO YOU THINK SHE'LL STICK AROUND THROUGH SEASON 20?

Real Housewives of London release date announced as explosive teaser drops
The Real Housewives of London premieres in just a few weeks. Hayu has officially announced the release date of its highly anticipated Real Housewives spin-off set in London, and fans won't have to wait much longer. Production for The Real Housewives of London began in March, featuring six glamorous women joining the popular franchise. The lineup includes Juliet Angus from Ladies of London, skincare entrepreneur Amanda Cronin, and Karen Loderick-Peace from The Real Housewives of Jersey. They are joined by Australian-born Juliet Mayhew, socialite Panthea Parker, and Nessie Welschinger, known for her appearance on The Great British Bake Off. Hayu has confirmed that the new series will premiere on Monday, August 18, with new episodes released weekly, reports OK!. At the end of the series, beloved comedian Katherine Ryan will host a reunion with the entire cast. What can viewers expect from The Real Housewives of London? A newly released teaser showcases the cast engaging in heated arguments as they navigate life in the spotlight. The streaming service has also provided a glimpse into each star's storyline. For Juliet Angus, Hayu hints: "Between launching her jewellery brand and celebrating 20 years with her husband, Gregor, she's got plenty to toast to... but fractured alliances threaten her hard-won confidence and leave her wondering who to trust. "As she juggles being a mother and entrepreneur, Juliet struggles to rise above the drama especially when everyone keeps pulling her back into it." Amanda is balancing love and business, with her skincare line thriving and a luxurious £20 million home to boast. Her synopsis reveals: "With her skincare line booming and a £20 million designer abode to match, Amanda is reclaiming her narrative and opening herself up to the possibility of a new romance. But her past with Juliet Angus won't stay buried and her biting comebacks and brutal honesty aren't winning everyone over. "From therapy breakthroughs to blowout fights, Amanda is learning to navigate vulnerability without losing her edge. But as accusations fly and old friends become new enemies, will she finally find peace or just more people to block?" On the other hand, Karen is adjusting to life as her kids leave home. Hayu hints: "As her children fly the nest, Karen returns to London to finally pursue her dream of launching her own fashion label, Becuz. But re-establishing herself in the city's social scene proves challenging – with whispered rumours, shifting alliances, and loyalty constantly under scrutiny. "Peace is hard to find when you're caught between clashing Housewives in a group that questions your every move. After experiencing a profound personal loss, Karen leans on her family for strength and begins to see clearly who's truly in her corner. With her status under pressure and her vulnerability often misunderstood, Karen is learning that sometimes, the only way to get clarity is to stir the pot." Juliet Mayhew's journey is all about her singing career and the inevitable drama that comes with being a Housewife. Her synopsis teases: "As her singing career makes a bold return and her business ventures expand, Juliet Mayhew finds herself at the centre of the group's gossip – and not always in a good way. Accusations of insincerity and social climbing swirl around her, but Juliet refuses to stay silent. "With her friendships under fire and her authenticity questioned, Juliet leans on Nessie for support and sets her sights on a drama-free reinvention. But when old wounds are reopened, she's forced to ask: can you really start fresh when everyone else is still stuck in the past?" Meanwhile, Panthea is gearing up to throw an extravagant birthday party. Hayu hints: "With her sights set on redefining what it means to be a modern mother, Panthea mixes Persian hospitality with party-girl unpredictability. She's trying to keep the peace, but her sharp tongue and unapologetic opinions keep her squarely in the line of fire. "Accused of taking pleasure in spilling the tea, Panthea hits back with biting wit and some unabashed home truths. But with friendships on thin ice and a big birthday bash looming, she's ready to show London who's really in charge." Lastly, Nessie will be in the limelight as she focuses on her new children's book, Dinosaur Cookbook. Her synopsis reads: "As her children's cookbook climbs the charts and her events become can't-miss affairs, Nessie is embracing her role as the group's unshakeable heart. "But playing peacemaker isn't easy when everyone's at war and this season, even she finds herself drawn into the drama. With health, heritage, integrity and honesty on her mind, Nessie's learning that even the most graceful woman has her limits... and sometimes you've got to raise your voice to be heard."

Alan McGarry shares reason they reversed cosmetic procedures on US reality show
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Content creator Alan McGarry is in a "very good place" since reversing their plastic surgery on a US reality TV show, the influencer has told. Alan is set to star in Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind, which follows nine celebrities and influencers as they consider whether to reverse previous plastic surgery work and go back to a more natural look. The show, which streams on Hayu from July 10, also features singer Aubrey O'Day and Kim Zolciak of The Real Housewives of Atlanta fame and is hosted by RuPaul's Drag Race judge, Michelle Visage, and plastic surgeon, Dr Terry Dubrow. Alan told Ireland AM hosts Alan Hughes and Muireann O'Connell on the Virgin Media breakfast show that they wish they didn't get plastic surgery when they were younger. Alan said: "Alan is in a very good place. I think I'm not as out there and looking for attention, probably for the wrong reasons or whatever. "I feel really good now I think doing this show, and it sounds very cliche and very cheesy, but it did change my perception of life now, and changed me as a person 100 per cent because I just feel much more confident in myself. Don't get me wrong, I have my days like everybody else, where, you know, you don't feel good, but yeah, I'm feeling much better in myself now." Speaking about why Alan started getting plastic surgery from as early as 19, the Dubliner said: "I suppose growing up, I was, you know, ginger, I was a bit more chubbier, and people used to pick on me. "I just wanted to change my appearance. I just wanted to get away from all those kind of bad names. So I started getting into, like, fillers, because lip fillers, back years ago, were a really big thing. The Jenners were doing it, so I think that was an addiction so we all started doing the trend. "And then, I think I didn't realise when enough was enough so I continued and continued to just enhance my appearance every time I walked into a clinic. But I think I just wanted to fit in. I don't know where I wanted to fit in. I think it was just more so because social media was a really big thing, and I think I just wanted to be a part of that kind of tribe. "I think it was just when you see something, you get influenced very quickly and I just wanted to enhance something I didn't really have, I suppose, when it got a flat lip, I think, I suppose I wanted to have a bigger lip. I think that's the reason why I started doing it." Speaking about wanting to go on the US show, Alan said: "It (The show) came at the right time for me. I was kind of like, not understanding why I'm consistently having work done and why I'm having some surgery, and I was approached to go on the show, and I loved the whole concept, because the concept for me was just like, actually, you know what? This couldn't have come at a better time for me. "To be honest, I didn't even know these types of people were going to be in the house. I didn't even know it was kind of a celebrity show. I just thought it was just normal people, social media people so when I see Michelle Visage as the host, I do scream, because obviously, you know, it's Michelle Visage. She's an icon and amazing. "These were people that I never thought would even have a conversation with me or have a cup of tea with me. We really had a good time. And I'm in touch with Kim (Zolciak) and Larissa from the show," they added. Join our Dublin Live breaking news service on WhatsApp. Click this link to receive your daily dose of Dublin Live content.
