Bravo is welcoming back The Real Housewives of New York City, and one familiar face from the franchise’s past has been upped to full-time status.
After previously being announced as a “friend of” the upcoming season 16 cast, Carole Radziwill is making her return as a full-time Housewife. (A “friend of” means a castmember is a supporting part of the cast and aren’t expected to share their personal stories to the extent of a main Housewife.)
Radziwill joined the Real Housewives franchise in season five of RHONY, where she remained through season 10. It had previously been reported that she would be returning the show for season 16, but only in a reduced status. With the trailer also debuting on Tuesday, it appears Radziwill’s past ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell will be a hot topic of conversation throughout the season.
Radziwill also makes reference to her ex-husband Anthony Radziwill, John F. Kennedy Jr.’s cousin, when she says, “Everyone’s American Love Story is my American Horror Story.” (Watch the trailer below.)
