Bravo's new dating series "Kings Court," produced by Will Packer and Lighthearted Entertainment is hosted by Hollywood power couple Holly Robinson Peete and Rodney Peete.
The show premieres Sunday, July 13 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo and episodes will stream the next day on Peacock. "Kings Court," is a spin-off of the Peacock original series "Queens Court."
Finding love comes with its challenges and if you're a celebrity with fame and fortune, the stakes are even higher. "Kings Court" is a new dating series with three celebrity kings - supermodel Tyson Beckford, NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer and WWE legend Thaddeus "Titus O'Neil" Bullard - searching for their queen among 21 smart, accomplished and beautiful single ladies ready to risk it all for the one.
In each episode, the kings take the women on fun, adventurous dates to discover which of them tug at their heartstrings. The ladies pull out all the stops to make a lasting impression, but it comes to a head at the elimination dinner party where the men choose who gets another chance at love and who goes home. After navigating a roller coaster of emotional highs, dramatic lows and tough eliminations, the kings must ultimately decide which of these fabulous ladies is their queen.
