The characters of The Real Housewives franchise – a reality series featuring a group of wealthy and glamorous housewives – might seem intimidating at first. But peeking into their lives and removing all the glitz & glam you will see that this reality series offers many instances and situations that most of us can completely relate to and it’s totally addicting even!
Here are some reasons why The Real Housewives are so relatable:
- Complex relationships – The Real Housewives is full of complicated relationships that happen all too often in real life and you’ve probably experienced yourself. Either among your friends or larger circle, from exes to frenemies or the ride or die people in your life, you’ll find lots of similarities with the characters and how they crazily deal with each other.
- Family matters – Who doesn’t have family issues? If you think your family dramas are so unique, you’ll be amazed that even in the glitziest settings, family issues are a constant concern. The Real Housewives will bring out a whole ‘nother level of mixed emotions that you’ve probably felt about your own family.
- The search for love – For many, true love is an elusive goal. Although living a glamorous life doesn’t mean it is any easier for the characters in the Real Housewives on their quest to find love—a search that you’ve probably seen too often, complete with the dramas they bring about, in real life.
- Power and money struggles – With all their fame and fortune, the characters of The Real Housewives find themselves in constant competition. The struggle for power, money, and even affection is a constant theme you’ll see in the series playing out all too often in real life.
- Friendship – At the heart of it, The Real Housewives is a story about friendship. The camaraderie, laughter, and fun that the women share amidst all the drama of their lives is something that you can definitely relate to. You’ll probably find that each character corresponds to someone in your own inner circle and there’s most definitely one personality you would resonate with as well.
