The Simple Life has gotten much sweeter for Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie in the two decades since the reality television series aired. For five seasons, the socialites took on low-paying, odd jobs that inadvertently set the difficulty level at an all-time high for two people who didn’t really need the résumé boost. Since then, Hilton and Richie haven’t spent much time building out their CV with fast food or camp counseling gigs, but they have continued to nurture their friendship — and now they’re ready to reunite on screen.

On Monday, Hilton and Richie shared the first official teaser for their forthcoming reality series, set to premiere on Peacock. “New Era. Same Besties,” the OG influencers shared in a combined post on Instagram. “Coming soon to Peacock.”

Few details have been released about how the series will be structured, but it marks Hilton’s second collaboration with Peacock. In November 2021, the streaming service premiered Paris in Love, a reality series that has notched two seasons so far. The show followed Hilton as she prepared to marry Carter Reum and welcome their first child, a baby boy. Now 43, she has since welcomed a second child, her first daughter, via a surrogate.

Similarly, Richie also has two children with husband Joel Madden. The actress and Good Charlotte member have been married since 2010. Richie’s recent filmography features appearances in Good Burger 2 and Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, as well as a forthcoming appearance in Castille Landon’s comedy film Summer Camp.

Earlier this week, Hilton teased her reunion with Richie on social media when she shared a collage of photos captured over the years. From Day 1: Sill and Bill,” she captioned the photos.
