WILL CAROLINE MANZO’S ULTIMATE GIRLS TRIP MOROCCO EVER AIR?

Caroline Manzo’s Ultimate Girls Trip Morocco season is still sitting in Bravo’s vault more than three years after it was filmed, and the question is the same as it was in 2023: will it ever air after litigation? The Salty Chip Podcast breaks down the unaired Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip shot in Marrakech in January 2023 with Caroline Manzo, Brandi Glanville, Vicki Gunvalson, Gretchen Rossi, Phaedra Parks, Camille Grammer, Eva Marcille, and Alex McCord. The trip fell apart after a drinking-heavy belly-dancing night on January 24, 2023. Production pulled Brandi from group activities, put her in a separate hotel, and Caroline later left on her own. Peacock and Shed Media said they launched a comprehensive review. Manzo’s 2024 lawsuit and sworn affidavit allege escalating unwanted contact, including a bathroom incident she says left her pinned, fondled, and calling for help while producers listened on mics and did not immediately intervene. She is suing Bravo Media, Force/Forest Productions, Warner Bros., NBCUniversal, Shed Media, and Peacock for negligence, harassment, battery, and related claims. She has repeatedly said she did not sue Brandi because she sees the problem as the production environment, not “hurting broken people.” Production’s version, including executive producer Lisa Shannon’s filings, paints a different picture: Caroline disclosed childhood trauma after the fact, said she felt disrespected rather than sexually violated, felt safe, wanted to keep filming, and did not want Brandi sent home. Other cast members, Phaedra among them, described the night as playful. Production says they separated Brandi, checked on Caroline, and that Caroline left after other women texted about visiting Brandi at her hotel. Seven edited episodes were reportedly delivered to the network in October 2023 and remain unreleased. Footage of the incident and aftermath was given to the court and sealed. Bravo has moved to dismiss on venue, First Amendment, and other grounds. The case was still open into 2025 and 2026 with no widely reported ruling sending it to trial or tossing it. Brandi has denied sexual assault from day one, said she was hired to “bring the party,” that both women were intoxicated after a long shoot day, that Caroline seemed fine at the time, and that the story ruined her life, cost her jobs, and sent her into a mental-health spiral. No criminal charges were filed. Phaedra, who said she was sober, called it a Harlequin romance and said nothing happened. Alex McCord opened the bathroom door and later told Andy Cohen she enjoyed the trip aside from “what we have heard about.” Gretchen said she was there and saw everything. Camille wanted the season to air. Most of the cast has said they hope viewers eventually see it. In early September 2026, Caroline went on the Legally Goff podcast and said she has no malice toward Brandi, likes her, thinks she is broken, and would want to fix her. She still will not go into bathroom details because it is triggering, and she fears that if the season drops after litigation wraps, reliving the commentary will cause her serious mental anguish. That is the tension: a finished, sealed season a lot of Housewives want on TV, a plaintiff who does not want it released, and a network that has memory-holed it while Ultimate Girls Trip moved on under a new name.
