Here’s everything to know about Karen Loderick-Peace – including where she’s from, her ties to the world of football, and which reality TV shows you might recognise her from…
Who is Karen Loderick-Peace?
Karen Loderick-Peace is one of the new Housewives appearing on season one of Real Housewives of London. This isn’t her first time joining the world, though, having already made her mark on the Housewives of Jersey.

Revealing that her family will be joining her on the show, Karen shares, ‘My husband has been in the football world for many years, but always remained very private. For me, I had to chat with them all. I talked to God first, and then I spoke to them.’
But while viewers caught a glimpse of Karen’s daughter, her son won’t be joining the cast… For now.
‘My son is not on the show. He said “Give me some time.” He might, or he might not But my husband and my two girls are supporting me on the show, which is beautiful.’
Which Housewives is Karen friends with?
Of course. Having been in the world of Housewives of years – and indeed, attended BravoCon – Karen is well acquainted with the franchise’s famous faces.
She’s good friends with _Real Housewives of Dubai’_s Lisa Milan, describing her as being ‘like a sister.’ Opening up about meeting some of the girls at a hotel during BravoCon, she adds, ‘The OGs are the best. Their feet are solid on the ground, and they did not disappoint. Kyle Richards [from Beverly Hills] was so sweet and humble. I like the Orange County girls as well. They bring the tea, they’re the original one liners!’
‘Watching other franchises and having been at BravoCon, it’s an amazing platform for women to put themselves out there. There are some cons that come with it, but it wasn’t hard for us to say yes because we’ve seen so many other franchises. We’ve seen so many women walk the walk before.’
