Disney+ and Hulu Confirm Season 3 of Rivals After Phenomenal Response
Rival fans, get ready because season 3 is on its way! Hulu and Disney+ have officially confirmed the renewal of Rivals for another season. Get excited for 12 new episodes that are set to air sometime after the second half of season 2 premieres in November 2026.
One big change for season 3 is that it will be the first installment without the involvement of author Dame Jilly Cooper, who passed away in 2025. Despite this sad news, the show must go on, and fans can look forward to more ambition, romance, rivalries, and scandal in the upcoming season.
While specific details about season 3 have not been revealed yet, we can expect the core cast to make a return. However, the absence of Cooper’s input will definitely be felt in the new episodes. Her influence was present in every aspect of the show, and her legacy will continue to shape the future of Rivals.
As we eagerly anticipate the release of season 2 part 2, fans can only speculate about what surprises season 3 will bring. With references to Cooper’s other works like Polo and The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous, we can expect the upcoming episodes to pay homage to her broader literary universe.
Stay tuned for more updates on Rivals season 3 as we eagerly await its premiere. It’s sure to be a thrilling continuation of the beloved series that fans know and love.
