The Real Housewives of Cheshire makes its premiere on ITV2 with two unmissable new series in 2026

Cheshire’s finest are back with a bang as filming is underway for two brand new series of the award-winning show, The Real Housewives of Cheshire, bringing northern grit, glitz and glamour in equal measure to its new home on ITV2.

Series 19 promises to treat viewers to an inside look at the ladies lavish lifestyles this Spring, as iconic OG Housewife Ampika Pickston re-joins the cast, alongside fan favourites Lauren Simon, Rachel Lugo, Sheena Lynch, Seema Malhotra and Paige Chohan. 

As the Housewives swing open the gates to their stunning homes and luxury lifestyles, letting their hair down with more epic nights out, they also share the reality of what goes on behind closed doors, from personal health battles and relationship dramas to heartbreaking grief and hidden insecurities. The Housewives continue to navigate the challenges of family life, motherhood and business. But after a deep divide ripped through the group last season, are friendships back on track, or has resentment been left to simmer?

Series 20 (6 x 60) will follow on ITV2 and ITVX later in the year for a double dose of glamour and will be followed by a brand-new Reunion episode, presented by host and self-declared superfan, Brian Dowling.
