The Hilton heiress, aged 43, and the fashion designer, age 42, are known for starring on ‘The Simple Life’ between 2003 and 2007, where they swapped Hollywood glitz for a small town in America. What followed was culture clash comedy as the girls, who are from both elite families, struggled to adapt to working class life.

Unsurprisingly, this led to tensions between the pair and viewers watched as they fell out - and made up - many times. Hilton and Richie first announced their new reality TV project back in May. The pitch for the show is said to have created an 'all-out bidding war' between production companies who wanted to get their hands on it, with James Corden's production company, Fulwell 73, eventually buying the rights to shoot it.
