Sorry, Santa — Christmas has come early forReal Housewives of Beverly Hillsfans!
PEOPLE can exclusively premiere the trailer for the highly anticipated ninth season of the hit Bravo show, and it’s as good a present as anything Old Saint Nick will be leaving under the tree.
Viewers have been anxiously waiting to see what happens with season 9, with reports swirling that original HousewifeLisa Vanderpumpquit the show due toclashes with other cast members(including longtime friend Dorit Kemsley).
Well, she hasn’t quit, and is joining returning Housewives Kemsley,Kyle Richards,Lisa Rinna,Erika Girardi, andTeddi Mellencamp Arroyave, as well as new HousewifeDenise Richardsand “Friend of the Housewives”Camille Grammer, for what is promised to be “a season of lies, heartbreak and betrayal.”
“The real story is even more crazy, epic, unbelievable, and shocking,” the trailer says.

That doesn’t mean there’s not bad blood brewing between Vanderpump and Kemsley. In the clip, the restaurateur tells Kemsley that she loves her, and then quickly points out, “Well, I actually don’t.”
“I’m not going to say what a f—ing bitch she was,” Vanderpump says later on. “Up, I said it!”
“They’re all trying to make me feel like a terrible person,” laments Vanderpump.

Vanderpump may not be entirely alone. Girardi looks to be on Vanderpump’s side, telling Kemsley and Kyle in one scene, “I kind of feel like the two of you are in cahoots.”
“She doesn’t want to sit and pretend to be nice to someone who has f—ed her over,” Girardi tells the rest of her castmates. “That’s not friendship, that’s bulls—.”
“I’m not responsible forLisa Vanderpump’s actions,” Kyle shouts.

Of course, this season isn’t all about interpersonal drama. The women each have big things happening in their own lives.
Girardi, Kemsley, and Mellencamp Arroyave are all throwing themselves into their careers too, while Rinna — coping with an empty household — is questioning whether acting still excites her.

Meanwhile, both Grammer and Denise have new love to focus on, as both will be walking down the aisle towed their respective husbands in front of theRHOBHcameras.
Married life isn’t all easy. In Denise’s case, saying “I do” to husbandAaron Phypersso soon after their engagement sparks rumors about why she’s doing it so quickly (“Shotgun wedding,” Kyle says). For Grammer, her time as a newlywed hits a bump when the California wildfires takes her home.
“I’m homeless,” she cries.
Grammer also appears to get into an argument with Rinna over Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanagh, telling her, “I know what it feels like to be wrongfully accused.”

And just when you think there couldn’t be any more surprises, former HousewivesBrandi GlanvilleandKim Richardsreturn to stir the pot even more — both having interactions with Denise.
“Cheers, bitch,” Glanville says, toasting Denise.
Kim is less kind. “That’s a lie,” she screams at Denise in one fight. “I’m done.”
