The ex-girlfriend of a major eighties pop star and friend of Jennifer Lopez has reportedly joined the cast of the Real Housewives Of London.

In October 2024 it was revealed that streaming service Hayu would launch a London version of the popular franchise, hitting screens later this year. 

Fans have been desperate to know who will be taking part in the brand new series.  

And according to The Sun, Skincare brand owner Amanda Cronin will be one of the stars taking part in the show. 

The socialite dated Wham! legend Andrew Ridgeley between 2022 and 2023.

The publication has reported that there’s hope that will ‘divulge details of their whirlwind romance’ on the show.

Back in 2023, Amanda revealed why they went their separate ways – and blamed the split on him not being ‘relationship material’.

‘I’m looking for a monogamous relationship,’ she said at the time.

‘When the next Mr Right comes along, he will have the same set of values that I have. I’m quite traditional, a sweet, country girl. 

‘I’m also discerning and want to be around other people who understand what that means.’  

She added: ‘I’m quite proud of it. 

‘He’s a good person and it was just great, a lot of fun, and will make a fabulous chapter in my memoir.’

Amanda is also pals with many celebrities including singer JLo.

The Real Housewives franchise, which is owned by NBCUniversal, first started back in 2006 and was created by Scott Dunlop.

It includes The Real Housewives of Orange County, New York City, Atlanta, New Jersey, D.C, Beverly Hills, Miami, Potomac, Dallas, Salt Lake City and Dubai.   

There is another based in the UK – The Real Housewives Of Cheshire – which was created by production company Monkey Kingdom. 

It airs on ITVBe and hit our screens in 2015, running for 18 seasons over the years.  

The Real Housewives of London will be produced by the same company as RHOC. 

It comes after MailOnline revealed that RHOL faced a casting crisis after producers struggled to ᴀssemble a glamorous cast for the long-awaited UK debut. 

Producers planned to feature glamorous businesswomen rather than traditional celebrities or WAGs.

However, the lack of willing participants has cast doubt on the project’s viability, with efforts to find London’s elite housewives proving fruitless.
