Blasts from the past! Caroline Manzo and Alex McCord confirmed for Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip as Peacock announces cast of season tour
Peacock has announced the official cast for season four of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip and OG Housewives Caroline Manzo and Alex McCord are set to be two major blasts from the past.
The New Jersey matriarch, 61, and the NYC alum, 49, will be joined by Atlanta’s Eva Marcille, 38, and Phaedra Parks, 49, Beverly Hills veterans Brandi Glanville, 50, and Camille Grammer, 54, and Orange County mavens Vicki Gunvalson, 60, and Gretchen Rossi, 44.
Morocco is currently bracing itself as the ladies of Bravo are about to bring their world-class drama overseas to Marrakech after the hit spinoff series ruffled feathers in Thailand for season three.

Bravo made the announcement by cheekily referencing an iconic line that Housewives MVP Luann de Lesseps levied at Alex McCord in season four of the New York City franchise.
The network tweeted: ‘What is that, is that a buffalo coming down the stairs? No, it’s the official #RHUGT 4 cast and they’re headed to Marrakech!’
Glanville, Parks, Gunvalson, and Marcille are all returning to Ultimate Girls Trip as they were featured in season two’s romp in The Berkshires.
But it is Manzo, McCord, Grammer, and Rossi who have sent a collective gasp of excitement through Housewives fandom as the four women have long been absent as official castmembers of their respective franchises.
New Jersey matriarch: After serving motherly might for the first five seasons of RHONJ, Caroline departed the table-flipping franchise in 2013 to lead her own series called Manzo’d with Children, which aired for three seasons
Alex is back! McCord is perhaps the biggest blast from the past as she held an apple for the first four seasons of RHONY before leaving the show in 2011
Gretchen is game: Fans of RHOC are certainly ready for an update on Gretchen Rossi, 44. The blonde bombshell has spent nearly a decade in the Bravo wilderness
Beverly Hills veteran: Since officially losing her diamond in 2012, Camille Grammer, 54, has appeared off and on as a ‘Friend’ of the RHOBH cast
‘CAROLINE MANZO RETURNS,’ trumpeted one fan on Twitter.
‘ALEX OMFGGGGG,’ tweeted one ‘McCordian’ – aka Alex McCord lovers.
After serving motherly might for the first five seasons of RHONJ, Caroline departed the table-flipping franchise in 2013 to lead her own series called Manzo’d with Children, which aired for three seasons.
Alex is perhaps the biggest blast from the past as she held an apple for the first four seasons of RHONY before leaving the show in 2011.
She left the country with her legendary husband Simon van Kempen, 58, and their two rambunctious sons – Francois, 20, and Johan, 18 – moving Down Under to Simon’s native Australia.
‘LITTLE MCCORDINATORS, WE WON,’ tweeted one Alex superfan.
Atlanta MVPs: RHOA alums Eva Marcille (right, 38) and Phaedra Parks (left, 49) are set to return for another season of Ultimate Girls Trip after being fan favorites of season two
Not their first rodeo: RHOBH’s Brandi Glanville (left, 50) and Orange County maven Vicki Gunvalson (right, 60) are both set to return after bringing the drama in the second season of Ultimate Girls Trip
And when it comes to Gretchen Rossi, fans of RHOC are certainly ready for an update.
The blonde bombshell has spent nearly a decade in the Bravo wilderness, raising her daughter with the infamous Slade Smiley, 49 – Gretchen’s partner of 14 years.
But the inclusion of Camille Grammer could cause the most fireworks, as Kelsey Grammer’s ex-wife is a longtime frenemy of the bomb thrower from Beverly Hills, Brandi Glanville.
Since officially losing her diamond in 2012, Camille has appeared off and on as a ‘Friend’ of the RHOBH cast.
“We don’t like each other,’ Glanville said of Grammer during an episode of Virtual Reali-Tea podcast. ‘But… let’s do this again, let’s have fun.’
Season four of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip is expected to premiere later this year.
