The Real Housewives franchise premiered on Bravo over 20 years ago with its first iteration, The Real Housewives of Orange County, and it has grown massively from there. That means there has been plenty of time and plenty of opportunities for viewers to literally watch the children of the Housewives grow up…and to wonder if there would ever be a day when they’d become reality stars themselves. Well, that day has come. While we still haven’t seen a Real Housewives kid become a Real Housewife themselves, there are a few Housewives offspring starring on Bravo’s Next Gen NYC, which is officially coming back for season 2.
The show follows a group of (mostly) Gen Z friends living in New York City (or nearby) with all of their friendship drama, relationship drama, and work drama—you know, typical reality TV show stuff. And while Bravo fans might not recognize all of the cast members, there are a few very familiar faces. Read on to learn more about the cast of Next Gen NYC for season 2…but first, the trailer!

Brooks Marks
Bravo
The last child of a Housewife on the cast is Brooks Marks, the son of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Meredith Marks.

Like several of his Next Gen NYC costars, the 26-year-old is also an NYU grad.

Hudson McLeroy
Bravo
Hudson is Ariana’s on-again, off-again boyfriend, who, like her, is from Atlanta. In fact, they’ve had an on-and-off relationship since they were in junior high! The 24-year-old is an investor…and if you’re wondering how a 24-year-old gets the career of an “investor,” it probably helps that his dad is super rich from founding the fast-food chain Zaxby’s.

Charlie Zakkour
