Dubai Bling is back on the OTT platform Netflix for the third time on Jan 08, 2025. A show that offers an insider look into the glamorous, luxurious, and extravagant lives of influential socialites living in Dubai. Along with all the glitz and glamor, the show also features business ventures and the interpersonal dynamics between the cast members.

Season 3 of the show went live on Netflix, and episode one starts a New Year party hosted by Mona and Hasaan, setting the tone for another extravagant and lavish celebration. The group reconciles after a while at this party to chat up and celebrate the upcoming year. Though most of the group came with the motive of having a great time, Farhana came back with her grudges with Safa from last year.

The episode not only shows Safa and Farhana's argument but also a disagreement between LJ and Hanna Azzi, Zeina's partner.

Let's dive into the recap of the episode.


What happened on Dubai Bling Season 3 Episode 1?

Dubai Bling couple Mona and Haseen decide to throw a New Year's party for the group to connect and meet after a long time. Though the motive was to have fun, the party turns into a chaotic event with not one but two arguments between a few of the cast members.


Farhana and Safa had a rocky start

The fans of Dubai Bling must be aware of one of the biggest takeaways from season 2, which was the feud between Farhana and Safa after the former questioned her luxurious authenticity and made a comment about her Birkin being borrowed. Though the viewers thought the topic was past them, Farhana decides to "put Safa in her place" and confront her about this situation once again.

As everybody gathers to celebrate the new beginnings, Farhana makes an entrance and decides to purposely greet everyone but Safa. This makes a few members of the cast question her intent. When Zeina tries to break the ice between the two, Dubai Bling star Farhana finds her moment to confront Safa.

The two get into a heated argument as Safa reveals she had already apologized for her comment a hundred times, but Farhana still decides to bring it to the party.


Hanna Azzi defends his wife during the dinner

Zeina and LJ haven't been the closest in the group ever since their exchange of comments on social media, and therefore they decide not to engage at the party. However, while settling down at the dinner table, Zeina's husband and LJ get into a disagreement when LJ mistakenly pulls the chair next to Zeina. When Hanna Azzi tells her that it was the husband's seat, LJ's reply triggers him.

"I wouldn't wanna be the husband. Trust me."

Azzi calls his comment "stupid" and calls her out for insulting his wife.

"Two hundred percent! LJ meant that no one would want to be Zeina's husband. She can't change that."

Even though LJ explains that she only said what she said because she is a woman and can't be a husband, Dubai Bling's Azzi confesses how he felt it was an attack on his wife.
