‘The Real’ Officially Canceled After 8 Seasons
The Real daytime talk show is wrapping up the series after eight seasons on air.
According to PEOPLE, the Emmy award-winning show has officially been cancelled. Co-hosts of the show Loni Love and Garcelle Beauvais also took a moment to confirm the news on her Instagram.
“In the end The Real cast & crew did everything we could to scale the show down,” Love explained in her post. “We shot 7-8 shows in 3 days, no audience, made a conference room into a studio, but in my opinion Covid costs killed this show..”
Adding, “This is not goodbye but see you all soon!”
Beauvais headed to her Twitter to also confirm the series cancelation.
“It [was] a fun ride!! Got to work with [a] group of amazing women and crew,” she wrote on Twitter alongside three praying emojis.
In March 2022, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shared exclusively with BET.com that she wasn’t aware at the time if The Real would be canceled for good.
“It's a rumor. It hasn't been confirmed by Fox, my team or anyone,” she said last month.
Fellow co-hosts Adrienne Bailon Houghton and Jeannie Mai Jenkins have not yet publicly commented on the news.
The Real first aired in 2013 with the show sifting through a number of hosts before landing on its current roster which includes Adrienne Houghton, Loni Love, Jeannie Mai Jenkins, and Beauvais as the latest edition.
Throughout the years, the show has received accolades including an NAACP Image Awards in 2018 and 2019, and a Daytime Emmy Award in 2018.
