They were joined by newcomers competitive body-building athlete and corporate lawyer Farah Esmail, aesthetics entrepreneur Zena Nyambu, as well as businesswoman Reja Keji Lada, and the ladies lived up to the billing of the show's fans however without a few disappointments.
RHON season 2 comes to an end at the time its producer (s) Young Rich Television associated with TV producer Eugene Mbugua, is currently embroiled in a legal battle with a politician at the High Court.
The influential politician is seeking compensation from Young Rich Television and Multichoice- Showmax’s parent company – for filming his wife, who's one the newest housewives, and his children including his matrimonial home in Lavington, Nairobi without his consent. He argues the filming amounted to a breach of their rights and freedom.
In the court papers, the influential figure claims his wife and Young Rich Television colluded and began filming matters about their marriage and children at his Nairobi home without his green light.
He wants the court to award him compensation against the Kenyan Real Housewives franchise “for the mental anguish brought to my children” and himself during the filming.
The politician won round one of the legal battle with the high court barring the producers of the reality show and Showmax from airing his Palacious home in Chalbi Drive Lavington and children as they had intended.
Honorable Justice Lawrence Mugambi gave the conservatory orders on May 6th, 2024, further extending them on June 10th, 2024 until the suit is determined and the ruling entered by the court.
Mugambi had set to issue a ruling date on the 17th of this month but the courts didn’t sit following the death of High Court Justice David Majanja. Justice Mugambi is expected to issue fresh dates to all the parties.
