Bling Empire is back people! After season two's explosive finale—which saw best friends Kane Lime and Kevin Kreider at odds and Christine Chiu and Anna Shay caught in a tense standoff—Bling Empire season three is back and picks up right where it left off...
For those who need a recap, Bling Empire season 2 was filled with ups and downs, from Paula Abdul's surprise cameo to Kim and Kevin’s will-they-won't-they relationship. But we were also left with quite a few cliffhangers, which from the looks of the latest teaser trailer will be addressed and then some.
From special guests including Selling Sunset's Chrishell Stause to the return of a few season one's cast members—the third installment of Bling Empire looks set to be the most dramatic yet. Here's everything we know!
Bling Empire season 3 release date
After what feels like an eternity, finally we know when we'll be revisiting the glitz and glamour of LA.
According to People, the reality show will be premiering on Netflix on October 5th 2022, with all your fave stars returning—including Kim Lee, Kevin Krieder, Kelly Mi Li and of course, Anna Shay. Ahead of it's release, Netflix has also dropped a teaser trailer and boy, is it juicy!
What can you expect from 'Bling Empire' season 3?
Season two left us with quite a few pending dramas, from the questions around Chèrie and Jessey’s relationship to the aftermath of Kim and Kevin’s relationship. The teaser for season three seems to revisit a lot of these storylines, with a few new twists, including the dramatic return of Andrew Gray!
The trailers shows the Kim and Kevin saga come to a head, as he confronts her after she said she was not ready to date—only to appear at an event on a date with someone else. We see her clap back at Kevin saying: "You're not my type!"—Ouch, could this be the end of their almost relationship?
On a happier note for Kevin, his feud with best friend Kane seem to be done and dusted, as they hug it out during what appears to be a group counselling session.
For Christine on the other hand, the drama is still coming as we see her confront Jaime for not 'supporting' her, likely over the Anna situation from last season.
Kane Lim also starts to play match maker, signing Kelly up for online dating, only for her ex-Andrew to make his return to the show. And he's not the only ex we'll see making a cameo...eek!
Bling Empire Season Two recap
As we prepare for the chaos that will undoubtedly ensure in Bling Empire season three, let's recap on where we left off with our cast members in season two...
Christine and Anna vs Kane
Season two saw Kane seemingly become the new villain of the group, with all of the group's gossip often being spread by him. During Christine and Anna’s last conversation, the two seemed to agree that they will have to speak to Kane to sort it all out. In the words of Anna, 'gossip is no different than betrayal’—sounds like Kane is in for one tough chat!
Kim Lee and Kevin Kreider
Now that the two have tried getting romantic and it didn’t really go to plan, what will their relationship be like? Will they be able to remain friends and talk about dating other people openly? From the looks of it, the will-they-won't-they drama is set to get worse before it gets better...
Kane and Kevin
While they seemed to make up after their huge fight (seriously, who knew Kevin could get so angry?), Kane still wasn’t sure they could actually stay friends. He even justified it using the Chinese zodiac to justify why their friendship might not last. Hopefully though, they'll being able to mend bridges this season.
Dorothy moves to NYC
Dorothy Wang’s time on Bling Empire has been short and sweet so far. She caused a bit of drama with Kane, but she seems like the big sister Jaime needs around. Will we still have her on the show after her big move to NYC?
Chèrie and Jessey
While they haven’t publicly addressed the drama surrounding their hush-hush exit, it seems they are done with the show for good. If they remain friends with some of the Bling Empire cast members though, we might hear more about how the story unfolded (particularly whether Kane and Chèrie ever mended their friendship).
Christine and Dr Chiu
After saying no to more kids in season one, Christine changed her mind after her mother’s passing and at the end of season two, she was looking for surrogacy options with her husband. We can’t wait to see another cutie like Baby G!
Is Drew coming back?
Kelly Mi Li was the poster girl for #healing throughout season two—we’re taking affirmations in the mirror, therapy and even vagina sunbathing to recharge her womanhood. So when we saw Drew knocking on Anna's door, we smell trouble. Would she ever entertain the idea of getting back with Drew after realizing how toxic their relationship was? Or is he back for another reason entirely? We’re dying to know!
Bring on season 3!
