Andy Cohenhas been working on Bravofor years and if anyone knows how the stars ofThe Real Housewives of New Yorkthink, it is him. But with a complete cast reshuffling for Season 14, it meant that new women were taking on one of the longest running shows in the franchise. One of thosewomen wasJenna Lyons.The fashion icon joined the series in Season 14 and really did not fit the mold of what a housewife typically is, and it led to many thinking that Lyons would not return for Season 15. Even Cohen didn’t think he’d see her back in action on the show.
Cohen spoke toUs Weeklyand said that he didn’t expect Lyons to return to the show at all. “[To be honest], I didn’t think she was going to want to come back. I hoped in the best possible world we would get her back as a ‘friend,’ but she wanted to come back full throttle, and I’m so glad she did.” He did also explain that Lyons is having a really good second season on the show. “I was in a meeting today, kind of a status report about what’s going on. I’m really excited.”
The Real Housewives of New York City
A fast-paced reality show that follows several incredibly busy and ambitious Manhattan women. Watch as they balance envious social calendars, challenging careers, and motherhood, with the hustle and bustle of the big city all around.
Will Lyons Get Along With Everyone?
Jenna Lyons found a way to keepher personally life her own businesswhile on the show and that is still, reportedly, the case in Season 15 with Lyons keepingher relationship withCass Birdoff the show. But Lyons returning to the series is exciting for fans who loved her honesty and her ability to navigate her friendships with these women, who were a lot more willing to bring every aspect of their lives to the series. With Lyons returning for Season 15 and having a “good” season, it does beg the question of what changed?
The Real Housewives of New YorkSeason 14had Lyons not really fitting in with the all-girl outings. She saw her strained home life and her other friendships for the reason behind it, but it took a while for Lyons to really start to fit in with this group. Heading into Season 15 ofThe Real Housewives of New York, the hope is that that will change. Given how Lyons has been acting since the show, doing press and talking about how happy she is with Bird, it does seem like Season 15 is just a different kind of vibe for Lyons and given what Cohen said, we’re excited to see what that season holds.The Real Housewives of New York Cityis currently filming for Season 15 and is expected to return later this year.
