Whether they're fighting gossip or out-earning their celebrity partners, these women prove they're more than just trophies behind the men, while navigating the glamour, drama and ambition of their elite worlds .
Check out the trailer below:
We shared the full cast bio earlier this month, but since our Senior Content Director, Janeé Bolden, already previewed the series, we're going to refresh your memory a little and add a few more details that you won't find it anywhere else.

Maranda Johnsonwho is pictured above with Ashley Wheeler, is in an on-off relationship with rapper Kodak Black. The couple share two young children, but their complicated relationship has landed her on numerous blogs. Maranda is close to Sharelle and Stoni (who are at odds for most of the season) and she works as a real estate agent under Sharelle's brokerage, but she is also a rapper who spends time in the studio during some episodes. Maranda adds a lot of youth and spice to the series!

Ashley Wheeler is a true WAGS OG having also been one of the stars of WAGS Miami series. She has been featured on BOSSIP multiple times and NEVER for negative reasons. We loved him then and we still love him today. She's stunning in every scene, also makes money as a real estate agent alongside Sharelle, and she keeps her cool throughout the season, remaining classy and never mean.

Sharelle Rosado is something of the linchpin of the series – as you can tell from the key illustrations. We know her as the boss of Allure Realty, but she's both a great businesswoman and a true beauty. We're looking forward to her press conference because she's never afraid to shake the table and she's already spoken behind the scenes about her relationship with Ochocinco (who we'll be seeing a lot of this season) as well as some. girls. She doesn't get along with everyone (Stoni and Julz in particular but sometimes Sadé too). It's unlikely that everyone will approve of everything Sharelle does and says this season, but at least she's never boring! Ochocinco is also a regular throughout the season and the premarital conversation in the trailer seems to expose some of the cracks in their relationship.

Lastonia Leviston, aka stay is the mother of Rick Ross' first child and she certainly helps keep the series interesting. She has some things in her past that she's not particularly proud of, but she definitely owns her mistakes and it's clear that she's just as entitled to the attention as the rest of the women. She's not everyone's cup of tea, but she fits the description of a villain and we're glad Netflix threw her into the mix.

We haven't seen any first images of Alexis Welch Stoudemire so we're going to have to single her out with her casting because she was the WAG we'd most like to date – and not just because she's a partner in a cannabis company. She's the person in the cast who we found to be the most welcoming — the most willing to sit with the women that others avoided. She is the least judgmental but also the most down-to-earth and real in every situation in the series. When she speaks, be sure to listen as she regularly drops gems. When we look at her, we see a woman who has been through a lot – including her highly publicized divorce from Amar'e Stoudemire – and still comes out smiling! It can be said that she hasn't always been treated well, but she treats everyone with respect and kindness. This is truly wonderful to watch in the world of reality TV!

The series is described as a docu-series, so we're not going to act like looks don't matter. These women are AMAZING – especially Porsha Bertowife of André Berto, who is another real estate agent with Allure and who runs a growing lifestyle empire, Bad Bxtch Good Mom.

Porsha gets a 10/10 every time she appears on screen. She's very close to Sharelle, Ashley, and Alexis and she certainly carries herself with grace, but she also doesn't back down from an argument.

Keeta Hill is Tyreek Hill's wife – we don't see her as much as some of the other women, but she gets along well with Sharelle, Ashley and Porsha and has had past tension with Sadé. One thing we really like is that it helps show another side of Tyreek – who is all about supporting his wife on the show. She's a class act, like most of the women on the show, she's passionate about representing herself and her family well and she's a shining example.

Since we mentioned Tyreek, it's worth noting that Ashley's husband Phillip and Porsha's husband Andre make frequent appearances on the show. They are clearly involved and supportive and it's awesome to see the way they show up for their wives.

Sade Vanessa stands out in the series not only because of her beauty, but also because she doesn't follow the crowd. It is very clear that the swimsuit designer is no one's servant. She seems sweet, but she definitely holds her own and doesn't let herself or her friends intimidate her. As you can see in the trailer, YesJulz finds himself behind with a lot of ladies this season but Sadé doesn't shy away from her.

Since she's not a main cast member, we won't get too much into Julz, but she should probably prepare herself because her scenes will surely land her back in the social media spotlight. One positive note about Julz is that she opens up about some of her relationship struggles and her motherhood journey, so maybe that should help her with her less than stellar reputation???
Phew! How's it going for tea? Are you excited to see these women in action?
From WAGs to riches premieres on Netflix on Wednesday, January 22.
