The Real Housewives of Auckland: Premiere episode recap

Check back here for live updates as we recap the debut episode of The Real Housewives of Auckland

We’re here with the Real Housewives themselves to watch the debut episode of the hotly anticipated reality TV series – from the cat fights to the shopping sprees, we’re recapping everything as it goes down.

Keep reading below to see our take on The Real Housewives of Auckland.

8.30 pm There’s big cheers in the viewing room tonight as the crowd ramps up for the premiere episode of The Real Housewives of Auckland.

“I suppose when people think of Louise Wallace, they think, ‘that old bitch'” – we love you already, Louise!

8.40 pm “Appointments are a full-time job” – it’s a hard life, Julia!

“She’s a big unit” – Louise doesn’t hold back describing her first impression of Angela.

8.50 pm – The ladies don’t look too impressed with Angela’s styling savvy!

8.54 pm – That staircase though! Michelle’s house is still #goals even with the unfinished staircase.

8.56pm You heard it here first, the next RHOAKL is Cristelle

Thoughts as we go into the ad breaks – Gilda Vs Angela, and perhaps leave the books at home next time…

Commercial break update: Naz has been spotted pashing her new man in the crowd! Trying to steal the spotlight maybe?

9.01pm Champagne and pussy, a gal’s best friend. We love you, Anne!

9.02pm Anne’s husband has moves like Jagger.

9.03pm “All I want is a few more pussies.” Straight from the horse’s mouth.

9.04pm Maybe being a cat lady is a good thing?

9.05pm 35 minutes in and the age difference between Gilda and her ex has already been brought up #awkward

9.06pm Gold digger? Me? How dare you Julia!

9.07pm Darling you need to understand, I pay for the pants and I get into the pants. #ladiesman

9.15 pm You wouldn’t want to be packed in like sardines (because riding in a limo is so uncomfortable!)

9.13 pm Private dining in Ostro #slummingit

9.15 pm Oh you still model Angela? What, for plus size? #OHNOYOUDIDN’T

9.17 PM Hold the phone. Is Angela crying at the table? #awkwardturtle

9.18 pm It’s her birthday but Angela will cry if she wants to

9.19 pm What? She’s crying? About the plus size thing?? That was ages ago!! – Michelle

9.23 pm Poor Julia – in all the drama around #plussizegate, the birthday girl is no longer the centre of attention!

9.24 pm – “I’m just hungry” – Louise is our spirit animal.

9.25 pm “Sweetie, with tits like that, you’re not a normal-sized model. Get over it.” – Michelle isn’t backing down over her original comments.

Michelle’s calling crocodile tears on Angela – she definitely doesn’t believe those waterworks are real.

9.27 pm No one can perfect the resting bitch face like Gilda!

“Are you delusional?” The claws are out as Gilda and Michelle take on Angela.

You heard it here first – we bet someone’s face is going in the cake!

9.30 pm And with that, the first episode is a wrap! We can’t wait to see the continuation of Angela vs. everyone on tomorrow’s episode.
