It looks like RHOA may be following in the footsteps of RHONY, as it's being reported that the current cast's peaches may be on the line after a disastrous 15th season.
According to lovebscott.com, production may be looking to recast the entire show and came to the revelation during the taping of the season 15 reunion.
A source close to production revealed that Bravo is beyond thrilled with the reception of the recently rebooted ‘Real Housewives of New York,’ so they’re fully onboard with production’s decision to recast ‘RHOA.’ The network is also very pleased with the upcoming seasons of ‘The Real Housewives of Potomac’ and ‘Married to Medicine.’
Casting for fresh new peaches is already underway. We’re told production has been quietly reaching out to managers and agents looking for new girls. There’s no interest in bringing back any old faces either — not Porsha Guobadia nor Kim Zolciak.
While production is looking for all-new peaches, it is possible that “one or two” peaches stick around as friends similar to the revamped ‘Real Housewives of Miami’ — it all depends on how casting goes. It’s possible that ‘RHOA’ could go on a brief hiatus to give them extra time to get casting just right.
As previously reported, ‘RHOA’ has been notoriously difficult to cast…which is the only reason why a few current ‘Housewives’ have gotten peaches in the first place.
Both Bravo and production are concerned with fan feedback that this has been the ‘worst’ season of the show in a long time, if not ever. Production sources said that several of the later episodes were re-edited to try and make an entertaining show, not to show favoritism towards any one cast member.
Kenya Moore has been very vocal about production allegedly cutting her storyline and editing her salon event out of the final episodes, but our sources say that the reason Kenya’s event wasn’t shown is because “it was dry” and nothing happened — even with nearly the entire cast in attendance.
As previously reported, Kenya’s ‘RHOA’ salary is quite hefty and Kandi Burruss is the highest-paid ‘Housewife’ across all franchises. The network could get an entirely new ‘RHOA’ cast for less than what they pay either Kenya or Kandi.
To put it into perspective, both ladies are making around $100,000 per episode — the entire cast of the ‘RHONY’ reboot are making around that for their whole season. That’s just one more reason as to why production and the network are down for rebooting the show.
With rumblings of a new ‘RHOA’ making the rounds, we wouldn’t be surprised to see more of the ladies airing out their grievances on their way out the door.
The (barely) two-part ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ begins airing this Sunday. Will you be watching?
This season was god-awful, and I bailed after the first two episodes. I also feel that production is sabotaging some of the girls while favoring others.
Should all the ladies get fired I'd love for them to spill all the behind-the-scenes tea they've had to deal with from production, which is what Kenya has been doing in her recent interview with Carlos King and on social media.
