The Executive Producer of the Real Housewives franchise, Andy Cohen, is spilling some tea.
In addition to Bozoma Saint John, who was announced on May 22 as a new Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member, Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly will each join the show as a “Friend of” the Housewives.
Andy dubbed the addition of Jennifer, an Oscar-nominated actress and professional poker player, a “really exciting” casting choice.
Sutton’s longtime bestie
The Chucky star, who’s been BFFs with Sutton Stracke for a decade, will add some new life to the show. She and Sutton often travel together, and Sutton’s Insta is full of photos of her close friend.
“I found out so much about her in her casting interview that I didn’t already know,” Andy told Us Weekly. “That really helped me see her in a new light, so I hope that we get to show her in this light.”
We’ve seen Jennifer at Sutton’s side in previous seasons of RHOBH. But if you’re not a Chucky fan, you might not know that Sutton made her acting debut in Season 2 of the SYFY/USA series. The mom of three appeared in a special dinner party episode alongside Gina Gershon, Joe Pantoliano, and Jennifer’s sister Meg Tilly.
Along with Jennifer, the return of Kyle Richards’ big sister Kathy will create a “great dynamic” with the other women. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) last week, Bravo confirmed the cast for Season 14 of RHOBH: Garcelle Beauvais, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Kyle, Sutton, and Bozoma. With Kathy and Jennifer as the sidekicks.
As fans already know, Crystal Kung Minkoff was let go following Season 13, as was one-and-done housewife Annemarie Wiley.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is now streaming on Peacock.
