Meet Gia Giudice, Ariana Biermann and More of Next Gen NYC Cast -

Many children of Bravo’s top personalities are all grown up — and conquering life on their own in New York City.

In the network’s upcoming Next Gen NYC, several former Housewives’ kids (and their BFFs) are documenting their lives in the Big Apple.

“Everyone’s kind of in a panic over Gen Z. I think we’re doing OK,” cast member Georgia McCann confessed in an April 2025 trailer. “This is the thing about New York. No matter how bad it is, it’s not worth leaving.”

On the upcoming series, the cast members each navigate school, business ventures and overbearing parents eager to share their life advice. The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Kandi Burruss, for her part, previously revealed how she supported daughter Riley’s decision to step in front of the cameras full time.

“If I were to have given my daughter any advice, it would be to always tell the truth, keep it 100 and just own who you are no matter what,” Kandi exclusively told Us Weekly in June 2024. “Never allow anybody to roll the tape back on you, because that is always the worst when you catch people in lies and they have to roll the tape back.”

She added, “At the end of the day, there’s nothing that she really can’t come back from because I’m always going to be here. I always got her back no matter what.”

In addition to Riley, other Next Gen NYC stars include the daughters of Kim Zolciak, Teresa Giudice and Damon Dash. Keep scrolling to meet the crew:
