The show promises "an exclusive look into the glamorous galas, scintillating scandals, and enormous egos of this group of luxury-loving ladies as they navigate the social scene of the city’s elite, all while juggling their husbands, boyfriends, careers and families".

"It's great to be building on the phenomenal international success of the Melbourne franchise and launch our wonderful Auckland housewives through this exciting joint venture," says Chris Oliver-Taylor, managing director of Matchbox Pictures, a production company owned by NBCUniversal.

Bravo launches in July.
