I just saw a commercial with Bethenny hawking Laura Geller cosmetics. She starts the commercial by saying "I'm  a supermodel" then goes on to talk about how great the cosmetics are then tries to convince us one more time with "I'm a model"

so thirsty

 

She has a commercial for L'Oreal where she walks the runway.

Anyone watching “Love Hotel”? Lu sounds like she’s smoking at least a pack a day.

Is she still committed to wearing those hats? She is never without one these days.

My theory is her hair is thinning, although if it is she certainly has enough money to spring for one of those little toppers.

I watched most of the first episode and then turned it off, but I made the exact same observation as you...she's always had a deep voice, but it's shocking to hear how much it's deepened in the last few years (or since I've last watched a show with her in the cast).  Yikes.  She sounds terrible.

She was on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live last night, and she had some cosmetic work done (face lift?), as well.

RHONY & RHONJ both missing doesn’t bode well.

The other four HW franchises had great ratings in their latest seasons, but NJ was toxic, and viewers don't want to see this again, and NY was boring, and dark with nasty accusations thrown around. Bravo might recast NJ, or scrap it all together. As for NY, a lot of damage was done to the franchise, and some recasting might help. Bravo can always add new cities. Bravo was showing reruns of the season, and episodes when the NY cast went to St. Barts with the pirate/Johnny Depp look-alike, and Aviva calling Ramona and Sonja white trash (and the two googling to see the definition of the term!), and demanding a parade because her husband brought her to the island. Great episodes.

I saw something that said Bravo is going to launch RH of Rhode Island. I don't know how trustworthy the source is, so grain of salt, etc.

Bravo greenlighted the Real Housewives of Rhode Island. It will start filming soon, and premiere sometime toward the end of 2025.

The Salt Lake City and Miami RH franchises are doing great, as well.

I see that Bethenny has developed a case of St. Vitus Dance, poor thing.  Get thee to an antibiotic, Beth.  There's always hope.

It's funny that the show is "of Rhode Island," rather than from its biggest city.  I guess Bravo couldn't hoodwink six women out of the 100,000 living in Providence. Go Little Rhody!  We're proud of you!

There aren't any plans to bring back RHONY any time soon.  No surprise.  The ratings were rock bottom.  There was little chemistry with the cast.  BRAVO made one of its biggest mistakes with the Reboot.  OG RHONY had a couple of bad seasons - in part because of the pandemic.  But the show could easily have been salvaged by firing Eboni and Leah, who is now suing BRAVO, Andy Cohen for a toxic workplace.

Bravo Says ‘The Real Housewives of New York City’ Is Not ‘Canceled’

 

Bravo is busting a big rumor in the Big Apple.

After reports questioning the future of The Real Housewives of New York Citybegan to surface online, with Page Six reporting that there were no “firm plans” for the franchise to continue, the network chose to set the record straight.

Nothing is official,” a Bravo spokesperson told Us Weekly on Friday, May 9. “The show hasn’t been canceled.”

Bravo’s reaction comes days after Bravo announced its upcoming slate of programming on Wednesday, May 7, with a mix of returning shows and new additions.

While several Housewives franchises were picked up for another season, including The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, The Real Housewives of Orange County, The Real Housewives of Potomac and The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, The Real Housewives of New York City was noticeably missing.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey was also missing from the renewal list, but fans are aware the show has been on pause since season 14 wrapped in August 2024.

Earlier this week, several cast members from The Real Housewives of New York City reunited for a friendly dinner.

After the group — consisting of Sai de Silva, Jenna Lyons, Erin Lichy, Ubah Hassan, Racquel Chevremont and Jessel Taank — posed for a photo, one cast member reflected on the group’s bond. (It’s unclear if fellow costar Brynn Whitfield was invited to the dinner.)

“Over the past three years, I’ve learned how to navigate and nurture the unique dynamics of our #RHONY friendship group,” Sai, 44, wrote via her Instagram Story on Wednesday. “We’re more than just castmates — we’re real-life friends who have bonded through an experience that only we truly understand. I’m eternally grateful to ride this wild journey with these incredible women.”

After one fan questioned Sai if the show was canceled, she replied. “I’m also confused by everyone being confused,” she wrote via her Instagram Story on Wednesday. “I was just expressing my gratitude for my castmates who have become close friends. Nothing is canceled. I’m not leaving the show and nothing is wrong. It was purely me showing appreciation for a great group of women. It was a positive post.”

In March, Us Weekly caught up with Raquel, 53, and asked about any plans for season 16. At the time, she had no news to report.

“Everybody’s asking, but I have no clue,” she said at the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards. “We just wait and see. I’ll find out probably around the same time you do. I would love to be filming with all the ladies.”

 

It’s not canceled it’s “paused” lol we all k now what “paused” is let’s be real lol

This. Ebony and Leah were awful and killed the show. They needed to dump them, not the entire cast. NY was my favorite franchise for many years. I live in Orange County and still try to watch that (it's not always easy) but I really enjoyed New York before Ebony and Leah ruined it.

To be fair Dorinda and to an extent problematic Ramona started the death keel of the show

Right? Like that whole reaction thing was so whacked  out of proportion to what and who she should have been mad at ..

Dorinda took it as a power trip like Tinsly had something over her so she must be brought down and destroyed because….. John borrowed money from Tinsly bf? Like it just made no sense .. and to get that violently angry about it that production felt the need to step in to protect Tinsly was like WOW ..

I couldn’t agree more. Eboni and Leah were awful to watch. Viewers don’t need to be educated and lectured. I do think the pandemic also played a part in that there were few places to film because a lot of venues were closed. They only needed to fire the two mentioned. They could have found a couple of new ladies to film with the OGs. 
The network obviously loves Luann. She’s been on how many spinoffs already? Just bring her, Sonja and Ramona back and find a couple of new ladies.

Sonja and Ramona have relocated to Florida. As has Bethenny, apparently very recently.

Sonja bought an old condo in West Palm Beach. Ramona bought a (better) condo in Palm Beach a couple of years ago, but she still spends time in NY. Bettheny bought a condo on the beach in the Faena District in Miami Beach because her daughter wants to eventually go to college in Miami, but she will keep her houses and condos in New York and the Hamptons, so she didn't really move. Bethenny went to high school in Miami for a few years, so she has a connection to, and friends in Miami.

That would be a dream come true. I wonder if it's still possible with Sonja and Ramona in Florida. I bet they would both jump to be on TV.

I don't normally pay much attention to stories like this, but for the restaurant owner to confirm the story is telling....Sonja hasn't gotten herself in check, still.  I can actually hear her saying "I don’t pay; people pay me".  100% believe this is true.

I thought the Rhode Island show would probably be about Newport, where the rich people live.

My guesstimate was Providence. However I’d love to see the ladies in Newport open their stately doors to their mansions, furnishings, old money (or heirloom) jewels, fashion and grand soirées

Now that I think about it, it's funny to have a show named for a state, rather than a city.  I can't think of another HW show named after a state.  Oh, correction--NJ is a state.

The ‘single mother’ line killed me! 🤣 like she’s working two part time customer service jobs with no benefits and shopping at the Dollar Store to get buy. Then, just casually racks up a thousand dollar dinner bill. What a nutcase.

She eventually paid the bill, and left a tip a few days after, but she is still blacklisted.

"Sonja was absolutely hysterical and refused to pay. It was like she was filming a ‘Housewives’ episode, shouting, ‘I’m a celebrity!’” a source revealed to Page Six. “She was like, ‘I don’t pay; people pay me [to go to their restaurants].’ She was absolutely entitled and caused a scene about not paying.”

Andy Cohen said on Watch What Happens Live tonight that the RH of NYC was not cancelled, and Bravo is actively casting.
