The cast of the Real Housewives All Stars is confirmed as filming begins in Turks and Caicos.
Seven OGs:
Real Housewives of New York‘s Luann de Lesseps was the first housewife confirmed to star on the tropical spinoff back in March 2021.
Joining Countess Lu on the island is fellow RHONY star Ramona Singerย and Real Housewives of New Jersey‘s Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga.
Kyle Richards from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Real Housewives of Atlanta peaches Kenya Moore and Cynthia Bailey will also star on the first ever Real Housewives crossover event.
The drama:
It didn’t take long for the ‘Ramona Coaster’ to derail.
The Housewives have arrived at the house in Turks & Caicos. Iโm told Ramona instantly ran to get the best bedroom and has pissed off the other women. She has already called Kenya a bitch and they havenโt even been there for an hour. Buckle up!! ๐

Plot twist:
An insider spilled toย The Sun, “An 8th person is going to be added halfway, and will be teased as some sort of twist.โ
“It’s rumored that former RNONY Jill Zarin is a ‘top pick’ for the secret bonus cast member, although her participation in the series has not been confirmed by Bravo.”
Can anyone else hear this photo?
If Jill Zarin doesnโt crash the Real Housewives All Stars show, Iโm going to need my money back, @peacockTV . I said what I said. #ScaryIsland #RHAllStars pic.twitter.com/wXjCGGslcn

This is the Scary Island throwback Bravoholics deserve….
Covid cut backs:
The Sun‘s source also noted that the all star cast had to be reduced as a result of the pandemic.
โThis is not the ideal cast that Bravo wanted but due to scheduling conflicts with current seasons filming and Covid, everyone is just excited they are going through with this.”
โThe cast size had to be cut down to seven, as the largest-sized house the show could book is seven bedrooms due to Covid protocols.”
If you’ve ever watched a housewives cast choose rooms on a cast trip, you understand there is no room sharing. Nor will Lu stay on the lower level, but that’s another story.
What to expect:
RHAS is โPlanned to be four to six episodes, but that may change depending on the footage” and will air on the streaming service, Peacock.
