TheReal Housewives of Melbourneis back gracing our TV screens, with four new ladies joining the cast to shake things up.

Gina Liano and Lydia Schiavello have said their goodbyes to the show, but originalRHOMcast members Janet Roach, Jackie Gillies and Gamble Breaux have remained for season five.

Janet is also in the news as she and her partner, Sam Gance, the co-founder of Chemist Warehouse, set the new highest price paid at auction in Australia at a cool $43 million for a place in Toorak. Nowthat’sa mansion.

Watch: 'Real Housewives of Sydney' Lisa Oldfield has a biological child who isn't hers. Post continues below.

NewRHOMCast: Anjali.

You just might recognise Anjali Rao: she’s a journalist who spent many years working as a highly successful TV news anchor on CNNTalk Asia.

Having interviewed some of the world’s most famous people including Kobe Bryant, the Dalai Lama and Bill Clinton, Anjali should be in good hands when it comes to talking herself out of potentially sticky situations with the other housewives.

"I've spent my career debating world issues with some of the most powerful leaders on the planet so I can handle anything and anyone that comes my way: whatever they may think," she told Foxtel.

After her divorce, Anjali decided that she would move back to Australia, and is keen to develop a career as a singer and conference MC.

However, Anjali admits herself that her previous teaching profession wasn’t exactly her forte.

"My first job was being a kindergarten teacher at age 16. I should never teach anybody anything. I would frequently come in quite hungover and just put on a film for the tiny little children and say, 'Who’s going to massage Ms Rao’s head today?'"

As for a completely random fun fact? Anjali’s favourite cocktail is the c***sucking cowboy: "It’s something I haven’t yet tried, but it sounds like something I would like." (The cocktail recipe is two-parts Baileys Irish Cream and one-part cold Butterscotch Schnapps for those whose minds may have drifted elsewhere).

As for what we can expect from Anjali onRHOM? According to the woman herself, season five will be full of "Vesuvian tempers, artic freeze-outs and genuine love that will last a lifetime."

The drama is already in full swing too, with Anjali responding on her Instagram account to a recent comment made by fellow housewife Janet that "nobody knows who she is."

"If I got 'roasted,' I certainly wasn’t aware of it. Then again, whenever Granny Janny empties her nappy about me, I do tend to use the opportunity to have a little snooze."

Goodness me.

NewRHOMCast: Kyla.

This "fun, fierce and glamorous" woman is all about the bubbles.

The self-titled Champagne Dame, Kyla Kirkpatrick, is a highly successful businesswoman, CEO, and champagne educator.

As the owner of three businesses that import and export high-end drinks, Kyla credits her determination for her success.

"I've come from nothing and all my success is down to hard work, long hours, no holidays, and a really strong belief in who I am," she said in an interview.
