As part of the rebrand, the channel will offer a huge range of exciting, new content including the return of the wildly popular Dating #NoFilter South Africa, alongside the exclusive territory premiere of The Real Housewives of London — the 30^th international instalment of the globally renowned The Real Housewives franchise, says NBCUniversal International Networks & Direct-To-Consumer.

Bravo Africa will feature a broad selection of global favourites, including further series within The Real Housewives franchise (Atlanta, DC and Salt Lake City) and the Below Deck franchise (Sailing Yacht, Mediterranean and Down Under). Additional titles span Married to Medicine, Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, and Botched: Plastic Surgery Rewind, delivering viewers a broad range of unmissable reality content, adds the company.

"We are thrilled to be launching Bravo Africa, with our partners DStv, and to build on the success of the NBCUniversal channel portfolio in Africa by bringing audiences even more of the mega-hit global franchises that they already love — now as part of Bravo, the linear channel brand that is synonymous with top-quality reality content," says Hendrik McDermott, MD, Hayu, EMEA Networks & International Direct-To-Consumer, NBCUniversal. "This rebrand reflects the strong slate of Bravo programming that had already been added to E!, and now makes exclusive original programming and a wider selection of Bravo's immensely popular reality programmes available to DStv subscribers."

"DStv subscribers that are fans of great reality programming are going to love Bravo Africa, and we're delighted to be able to give these hugely popular shows a home on our platforms. The channel will be available down to DStv Access, as we continue to improve our customer value proposition across our packages," concludes Byron du Plessis, Chief Executive Officer at MultiChoice South Africa.
