Not finding enough reality TV on streaming services like Amazon Prime Video<\/a> or Netflix<\/a>? Hayu<\/a> (pronounced \u2018hey-you\u2019) could be the answer to your problems.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re looking to binge-watch one of the many The Real Housewives franchises, catch up on all the drama in Keeping Up With The Kardashians<\/a>, take a peek inside celebrities\u2019 lives like with Paris In Love, or watch some true crime documentaries and iconic movies, the platform has it all.<\/p>\n

But how much does it cost? How can you watch it? And for reality TV-fanatics, is it worth it? Here\u2019s all you need to know about Hayu\u2026<\/p>\n

What is Hayu?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hayu came onto the scene in 2016. It\u2019s a subscription-based video streaming service which focuses on reality and true crime TV. With over 300 shows on the platform, it\u2019s easy to see why reality telly-lovers subscribe to get their fix. Plus, Hayu is owned by American network NBCUniversal, which means subscribers get to see shows on the same day they\u2019re premiered in the US!<\/p>\n

How to watch Hayu in the UK?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Luckily, there are a few ways you can watch Hayu in the UK!<\/p>\n

To watch Hayu in the UK, simply head over to the Hayu site<\/a> and select a plan. You\u2019ll have the choice of three: one month for \u00a34.99, six months for \u00a323.99, or 12 months for \u00a343.99. With the 12 month plan, you\u2019ll save 25% off the monthly price, so if you\u2019re a reality TV-fan (and trust us, with over 300 shows, you won\u2019t run out of things to watch), a yearly subscription is a great option.<\/p>\n

Plus, there\u2019s a seven day free trial on any of the plans!<\/p>\n
