‘The Real Housewives of Dubai’ Returns to Bravo
As Brooks noted in her original tweet, she is dedicating her second season on “Real Housewives of Dubai” to her late niece. RHODubai returns to Bravo after over a year and a half away on June 2 at 9 p.m. Eastern.
Ahead of season 2, Brooks spoke about what’s to come in an interview with Blavity, explaining, “Friendships and the dynamics of friendships have certainly shifted tremendously.”

I’m super excited for the fans to see that side of me because my life really does revolve around work in business, and I feel like in Season 1, people got to hear a little bit about it, but in Season 2, you get to see a lot more of it,” Brooks said.
