It appears that Season 13 of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” has achieved not only the series’ highest viewership ever, but the highest of the entire “Real Housewives” franchise since 2014, according to Multiplatform + 35 data.

The first 16 episodes of Season 13 averaged 4 million viewers across 35 days of Bravo and Peacock viewership. Episodes 17-20 have yet to hit the 35-day mark, but performed strongly according to same-day data, outpacing several of the preceding episodes. Assuming the 35-day average remains at or above 4 million when the final four episodes are tallied, this puts Season 13 above every single “Real Housewives” season since 2014, when “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” concluded its sixth season.

Of those 4 million average “Beverly Hills” viewers, 2 million fall within the adults 18-49 demographic.

“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show” has also gotten a boost this season. To date, all episodes of the Season 13 After Show have reached a combined 12.1 million streams,...
