In November 2021, Andy Cohen went on The Today Show and excitedly announced The Real Housewives of Dubai, he promised it would “blow the lid off the entire franchise.” Three years later, the show is on pause after airing only two seasons.
Some fans will claim they saw this ending coming from a mile away. Others are still scratching their heads trying to figure out where RHODubai went wrong. Either way, we’re finally hearing from Andy about the indefinite pause, and he promised that the move wasn’t personal.
Of course, everyone knows that TV decisions are ruled by ratings. If no one is watching a show, it’s bound to get canceled. However, Andy explained in an interview with People that ratings weren’t the sole reason for Dubai getting put on pause. Instead, he said they were looking at the Real Housewives franchise as a whole.
