Netflix has revealed the release date for Season 2 of their popular reality TV series 'Bling Empire'. 'Bling Empire' premiered in January 2021 and followed a cast of wealthy East Asian and East Asian-American socialites in Los Angeles as they traverse parties, drama, and their everyday lives. The series was renewed for a second season in March 2021, only a few months after its premiere.

The second season will premiere on Netflix on May 13, 2022, and promises to have "even more luxury, glamor and crazy" than the first. The upcoming series will consist of eight episodes, each running for 40 minutes and will be available to stream on Netflix.

When the series premiered in January last year, one of the show's most glamorous stars, Anna Shay, already welcomed the prospect of a second season: "If there is going to be a second season, I would still end up being me because I don't know what else to do. Besides, it's reality. You have to keep it real," she said.

Here’s what we know about the new season so far.
