Sezon 12

The return of the reality programme following the lives of women who reside in one of the UK's most affluent areas, beginning with everyone celebrating the renewal of Nicole and Joe's wedding vows after the lifting of lockdown.

As everyone reacts to news of Hanna's pregnancy, the Housewives celebrate the realities of motherhood, cracked nipples and all.

As Ester makes the decision to spend more time in Spain with her partner, the Housewives welcome a new face to Cheshire, Lystra.

Hanna reels from her row with Lystra, Dawn copes with a frightening diagnosis, and Lauren tests her spiritual side.

The housewives question what Rachel is doing when she appears naked on a horse. Plus, Dawn returns following her battle with Covid-19.

The women head to London for a long weekend, but the trip is immediately plunged in to disaster as coronavirus strikes again and some of the group head back home.

As the Housewives return to the Cheshire social scene after their enforced isolation, Seema and Nicole question another Housewife's integrity when a series of anonymous direct messages provide an insight into their true feelings for their friends. The question is whether Lystra has been caught out, or if the Housewives should be more trusting of their new friend. Lauren's dinner party, held in Lystra's honour, may yet end in disaster.

Following the revelations at the dinner party, Rachel, Seema and Lauren turn detective to discover if Lystra could have sent the explosive messages that shook the Housewives or whether they were faked. Tanya heads back into isolation, Rachel goes steady and Nicole becomes frustrated with her place in the group. Meanwhile, as Hanna and Martin reach the 20th week of their pregnancy, everyone is excited to find out whether they are expecting a girl or a boy.

Now that the world knows the gender of the Kinsellas' baby, it's back to work as Hanna plans her next step to world domination. Nicole and Joe explore the potential of her 'psychic abilities', but would she ever predict the outcome of Lauren's new makeover? Meanwhile, Rachel's new romance continues to flourish, but will it rub off on another Housewife when she sets them up on a blind date?

Hanna is finally ready to launch her new business. Lystra returns from isolation, and Rachel tries to bury one of many hatchets.

With a new lockdown imminent, Seema hosts a dinner party in the hope that any tensions can be resolved so that the group can part on better terms.
