Bravo has finally dropped the full trailer for The Real Housewives of Rhode Island and confirmed that season one premieres Thursday, April 2nd at 9PM EST!
The newest city in the franchise already looks messy in the best way, with tiny‑state energy and big drama in a place where literally everyone knows everyone.
The cast of RHORI is stacked: Alicia Carmody (instant queen), Rosie DiMare, Ashley Iaconetti, Liz McGraw, Rulla Nehme Pontarelli, Kelsey Swanson, and Jo-Ellen Tiberi are all picking up diamonds, docks, or whatever Rhode Island’s holding item ends up being.
They’re joined by Real Housewives of New Jersey fave Dolores Catania as a friend of the group, which is exactly the kind of crossover juice that makes a first season feel legit right out of the gate.
Bravo’s description nails the vibe: in a place where family names actually mean something, history runs deep and nothing is ever really forgotten. Friendships go back decades, loyalties are serious, and secrets are guarded like heirlooms… until someone flips, and the cracks start to show. You can already feel that “we used to be close” tension in the trailer, and that’s peak Housewives DNA!
With a fresh cast, a tight-knit setting, and Dolores popping in to deliver tough‑love wisdom and stir the pot just enough, The Real Housewives of Rhode Island is lining up to be the next must‑watch in the Bravo universe.
Mark April 2nd at 9PM EST in your calendar, pour something stronger than coffee, and get ready to meet your new obsession. Watch the trailer for The Real Housewives of Rhode Island season 1 below!
