Young, Famous & African season 3: release date, trailer, cast and everything we know about the reality series

Diamond Platnumz dressed in purple in Young, Famous & African.

After Young, Famous & African season 1 captured fans' attention and Young, Famous & African season 2 continued to hold it, Young, Famous & African season 3 helps kick off the new year, no doubt hoping to accomplish similar feats. And with new people being introduced into this friend group, which already had its share of conflict, we can’t help but suspect some new drama is bound to unfold.

Of course, beyond the arguing we’re anticipating some more examples of fabulosity. Whether that be more high-fashion moments from Swanky and Annie or extravagant parties from Khanyi Mbau, we have a feeling this clan will continue to bring it.

Here’s everything we know about Young, Famous & African season 3.
