Dublin Wives is an Irish reality television programme airing on TV3, set in Dublin. The series follows the lives of five housewives living in the city; Danielle Meagher, Jo Jordan, Lisa Murphy, Roz Flanagan and Virginia Macari, and introduces viewers to their lifestyles, families and homes. The first series followed a similar format to the US franchise The Real Housewives, though it has no connection to that franchise, and was required to make changes amid concerns from NBC. According to the series premise they are "living the dream with handsome husbands, beautiful children, stylish homes and a fabulous wardrobe." The Irish Mail on Sunday described the series as unscripted, but with the scenarios contrived by the producers.
