Cord-cutting “Housewives” fans, rejoice: “The Golden Life” has found a streaming partner.
The E! series — which follows “The Real Housewives of New York City” alumni Kelly Bensimon, Countess Luann de Lesseps, Dorinda Medley, Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer as they head down to Florida — will launch on Hulu in November thanks to a licensing agreement between the streamer and Versant, the spinoff company that now controls a handful of cable networks previously under NBCUniversal.
“The Golden Life” premiered on E! on Oct. 20 without a streaming destination. The first two episodes will hit Hulu on Nov. 3, with remaining episodes available on the streamer seven days after premiering on E!.
The series finds the “RHONY” favorites reuniting in Palm Beach. “Whether it’s yacht parties accompanied by past flings on the not-so-sunny coast of Florida, championing the Gay Polo League, an old-school girls weekend in Miami, or glamorous shop-and-sip events in luxury boutiques, the ladies bring their iconic personalities to the exclusive Palm Beach scene,” per the logline.
“We knew we were onto something special with ‘The Golden Life,’ and the enthusiasm around the series has been palpable. We’re excited to bring this new chapter to an even wider audience,” said Val Boreland, president of entertainment at Versant. “This agreement with Hulu extends the reach of a distinctive E! series and reflects Versant’s strategy of creating more ways for fans to connect with the programming they love.”
“The Golden Life” is produced by Blink49 Studios with Tara Long, Nadine Rajabi, Mark Ford, Ben Megargel, Paul Yuan, Janelle Couture, Rudy Castellon and Daniel Rogge serving as executive producers.
