Dubai Bling Season 3 Review: Drama, Decadence, and One Rolling Stone That Gathers Way Too Much Moss

Season 3 of Netflix’s Dubai Bling is here, and let me tell you, it’s a whirlwind of drama, opulence, and characters that make you laugh, cry, and occasionally scream at your screen. While this season feels a little less scripted (thank God), it is by no means calm. If anything, it’s an unhinged rollercoaster ride with Ebraheem as its deranged conductor. Buckle up, because this season is crazy—and not the fun, “let’s party in a yacht” crazy. We’re talking “someone please stage an intervention” crazy.

Let’s dive into the madness, shall we?

The Curious Case of Ebraheem: A Rolling Stone Gone Wild

If there’s one person who grabs your attention this season, it’s Ebraheem. Unfortunately, it’s not because he’s charming or charismatic—it’s because he’s off-the-rails bonkers. Imagine a rolling stone barreling downhill, gathering not just moss but also grudges, petty plans, and an alarming amount of villain energy.

Ebraheem’s antics this season defy logic. He picks fights for sport, manipulates people like he’s auditioning for Survivor, and has the emotional intelligence of a tantrum-throwing toddler. At times, you’re left wondering if he even has a plan or if he’s just throwing darts in the dark. Either way, he’s officially become the villain of Dubai Bling. And not the lovable “bad guy” type. Nope, this guy is straight-up frustrating, and by the end of the season, you’ll find yourself yelling, “Netflix, why is this guy even here?!”

Zeina and Safa: From Drama Queens to… Zen Queens?

Speaking of unexpected transformations, Zeina and Safa have toned down this season. Yes, you heard me—toned down. Don’t get me wrong, Safa still does Safa things (like giving her car a send-off that belongs in a soap opera), but overall, these two are more chill than a Dubai brunch mimosa.

Zeina, on the other hand, steals the spotlight with a genuine “OMG” moment when she’s surprised with a new car. Her reaction? Priceless. You can almost feel the authenticity oozing through your screen, a rarity in reality TV.

Jwana and LJ: Frenemies to Forever

This season takes us on an emotional ride with Jwanna and LJ. Their story arc is like a well-paced novel: it starts with tension, builds up to intense confrontations, and finally ends with a sweet, unscripted reconciliation. The moment they make up? Chef’s kiss. It’s raw, it’s heartfelt, and it’s the kind of emotional payoff that reality TV rarely delivers.

LJ and Jwana brought an unexpected depth to the season, adding layers to the usual glitz and glamor. Their dynamic also gave us a break from Ebraheem’s shenanigans, which was much needed for our collective sanity.

Mahira: The Silent Storm

Mahira is the underdog of this season. She doesn’t like drama, but when it’s necessary, she stands her ground with a quiet strength. Unlike Mona Kattan, who stays neutral to the point of being boring (we’ll get to her later), Mahira knows when to step in and speak her mind. She’s graceful but not afraid to throw a few well-timed verbal punches.

Mahira is a breath of fresh air in a season that often feels like a high-stakes soap opera. She’s proof that you don’t need to scream to be heard. Sometimes, a firm, calm voice is all it takes.

Mona Kattan: Too Good to Be True?

Ah, Mona Kattan. The peacemaker. The fence-sitter. The Switzerland of Dubai Bling. While her neutral stance might work in theory, in practice, it’s frustrating. We get it—she doesn’t want to take sides. But sometimes, you just wish she’d pick a lane and drive.

Her husband, Hasan, on the other hand, is infinitely more interesting. He’s mysterious, intriguing, and adds a layer of complexity that Mona lacks. While Mona spends her time playing diplomat, Hasan keeps you guessing. Honestly, I’d watch a spin-off centered entirely on him.

DJ Bliss and Danna: The Sincere Duo

DJ Bliss and Dayna come across as the most grounded couple this season. Their sincerity shines through, even when they’re dealing with Ebraheem’s ridiculous antics. You can’t help but feel sorry for DJ Bliss during his conflict with Ibrahim. Spoiler: it doesn’t end well.

Dayna, for her part, is supportive without being overbearing. Together, they’re a rare example of normalcy in a show that thrives on excess.

Farhana and Herios: The Custody Chronicles

Farhana’s subplot involving visitation rights for her son is one of the more relatable storylines this season. Her struggle to balance logic and emotion makes her feel human in a way that many reality TV stars don’t. You might not agree with all her decisions, but you understand where she’s coming from.

Herios, on the other hand, remains slippery and hard to read. Is he genuine? Is he manipulative? Who knows? But their dynamic keeps you hooked, adding another layer of drama to an already packed season.

The Men: Fahad, Salem, and Hanna

Let’s talk about the other guys. Fahad is as neutral as ever, popping up occasionally to remind us he exists. Salem, however, comes across as sincere and endearing. He’s one of the few characters who feels grounded in reality, and his moments of honesty are a refreshing break from the chaos.

Hanna also has a strong season, revealing more of his personality. He’s not just a background player anymore—he’s a fully fleshed-out character, and it’s great to see.

The Clothes

Let’s talk about the clothes—because, honestly, they deserve their own spinoff series. The wardrobes in Dubai Bling are so extra, so impossibly over-the-top, that you start to wonder if these people are dressing for a red carpet or a quick trip to the market. Sequins for lunch? Sure. Feathers for a coffee run? Absolutely. Full-on couture to grab a loaf of bread? Why not?

Now, I’ve been to Dubai, and yes, the people there are undeniably stylish—effortlessly chic, polished, and stunning. But this level of glam? It’s like the cast collectively decided that subtlety was for peasants. Every outfit is a walking statement piece, screaming, “Look at me!” while also whispering, “Do you even know how much this costs?”

Take Safa, for example. Her outfits looks like they came straight out of a Paris runway. And then there’s Mona Kattan, always dressed to look like she’s about to host an awards ceremony, even if she’s just heading to a friendly brunch.

The real question is: Do actual Dubai residents dress like this? Based on my experience, the answer is a resounding no. Sure, they’re stylish, but no one is pulling out Swarovski-encrusted gowns to buy cucumbers. The cast of Dubai Bling has clearly decided that in their world, there’s no such thing as being overdressed—because who doesn’t want to look like a walking chandelier on a Tuesday afternoon?

It’s ridiculous, it’s fabulous, and it’s a little addictive. You might roll your eyes, but deep down, you know you’d love to borrow one of those diamond-studded jackets—just for fun.

The Highlights and Lowlights

• Highlight: The LJ-Jwana reconciliation. It’s sweet, emotional, and gives the season a much-needed dose of authenticity.

• Highlight: Zeina’s car surprise. Her reaction is pure gold and proof that not everything on this show is staged.

• Lowlight: Ebraheem. Just… everything about him.

Final Thoughts

Season 3 of Dubai Bling is like a designer cocktail: flashy, over-the-top, and sometimes a little hard to swallow. It’s chaotic, entertaining, and occasionally maddening, but that’s what makes it Dubai Bling. While some characters shine and others fall flat, the season as a whole is a guilty pleasure that keeps you hooked.

So, grab your popcorn, pour yourself a fancy drink, and dive into the madness. Just be prepared for a wild ride—because in Dubai Bling, the drama never sleeps.
