The Showmax Original reality series The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Africa has united vibrant personalities from across the continent for a sun-soaked adventure in Brazil. The series, a spin-off of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: South Africa, premiered on Friday, November 28, 2025, showcasing housewives from Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa navigating drama, luxury, and sisterhood. Among the standout stars is Princess Jecoco, representing Abuja and bringing a distinct mix of charisma and authenticity to the show. From her very first call, she described the experience as both a honor and a personal milestone.

In an exclusive interview, Princess Jecoco revealed the preparation behind her participation. Balancing her businesses, family, and cultural commitments required intentional self-work, including journaling, prayer, and mental grounding. She framed the trip as an opportunity to authentically present her identity, not only as a housewife but also as a lawyer, mother, and cultural ambassador. This period of reflection left her feeling centered and confident as she embarked on the continental journey.

Princess emphasized the importance of navigating group dynamics with respect and camaraderie. While her naturally vibrant energy ensured she was noticed, she consciously avoided aggression, aiming to foster genuine connections rather than dominate interactions. Comparing her experience to The Real Housewives of Abuja, she noted that the Ultimate Girls Trip offered a more relaxed, spontaneous environment, highlighting both her playful side and emotional depth, including moments of vulnerability and frequent tears.

A central aspect of Princess Jecoco’s presence on the show was her representation of her city and Igbo heritage. As president of the Umu Asa Cultural Association, she felt a profound responsibility to display her culture authentically, integrating her accent, humor, and values into interactions. She also shared that while some off-camera moments allowed for genuine bonding, certain cast members often performed for the cameras, creating tension and intermittent conflicts within the group.

Recalling a particularly memorable evening in Brazil, Princess described a spontaneous barefoot dance party under the stars, fueled by wine, laughter, and Brazilian beats. These behind-the-scenes experiences, she said, revealed a softer and more joyful side of her castmates, offering viewers a glimpse into the authentic emotional tapestry that unfolded beyond the camera lens. For Princess, these moments underscored the unique blend of friendship, fun, and personal growth that defined her RHUGT Africa journey.
