Showmax has recently announced the much-awaited return of Kyallo Kulture, which is set to premiere on the platform on May 23, 2023, as a Showmax Original title.
The first season of Kyallo Kulture took viewers into the personal lives of Betty Kyallo and her sisters, Mercy and Gloria Kyallo. It highlighted the joys and pains of sisterhood, and the importance of family in all situations, even the most difficult ones. The reality series was a hit with Kenyan viewers, becoming one of the top ten most-watched shows on Showmax in Kenya in 2022.
Kyallo Kulture season one was nominated for Best TV Show at the 2022 Kalasha Awards. Now back for a second season as a Showmax Original, Kyallo Kulture will follow the sisters on their journeys, separately and together, as they relearn each other and attempt to answer the question: “What is my next move?”
Betty Kyallo is thrilled to be back for a new season, stating, “The fact that we are doing season two means that season one was something great for people to watch and that viewers appreciated the work that I did together with my sisters.” Betty promises that the second season will be even better because of the growth they have all experienced. “I feel like I am not the same person I was in season one. This season will show a quite different side of the Kyallo sisters, and it will be so much fun and with lots of energy,” she says.

For Mercy Kyallo, who recently turned 30, Kyallo Kulture season two will be about her growing into adulthood and living life to the fullest. “Turning 30 has come with a lot of maturity and realizing that life is short,” says Mercy. “This season, fans will see me accepting who I am and living my life as I have always wanted to.”
Gloria Kyallo, the youngest of the Kyallo sisters, is looking forward to sharing her colorful journey into youth, what she describes as “the experiences of the not-so-average millennial girl.” “Expect the good, the bad, and the ugly, as well as the breakups and the makeups,” she says.
Eugene Mbugua’s D&R Studios produce Kyallo Kulture. It is also behind The Real Housewives of Nairobi, which broke streaming records for the most first-day views for any title on Showmax in Kenya when it premiered in February 2023. With every weekly episodic release, the show continues to top Showmax charts and Twitter trends.
“The team at D&R Studios is pleased to have Kyallo Kulture renewed for a second season. We had a great learning experience filming the first season. We are humbled that the audience appreciated our work and the love they showed for Gloria, Mercy, and Betty Kyallo,” says Mbugua.
“We also appreciate our continued partnership with Showmax and MultiChoice, which allows us to continue putting out this content.”
Having worked on The Real Housewives of Nairobi, which has set the bar high for D&R Studios, Mbugua is looking forward to applying the learnings from RHONairobi to Kyallo Kulture season two. The return of Kyallo Kulture is eagerly awaited by fans, who are excited to see what the new season has in store for them.
