Andy Cohen Addresses Fans’ “Surprised” Reaction to Real Housewives of Rhode Island

According to Bravo’s May 7 announcement, “Set against the shores of the Ocean State, The Real Housewives franchise expands into the world of a tight-knit circle of Rhode Islanders who have deep community roots and families that go back generations. With aspirational lives, thriving businesses and tangled family dynamics, these decade-long friendships prove that in a state this small, there’s no escaping your past…or each other.” 

But while the premiere of RHORI is still far off in the distance, The Real Housewives of Miami returns next month for season seven. And the drama will be spicier than ever.

As Andy teased, “There’s a drink throw, but whatever. There’s so much more than a drink throw on the new season of Miami. It’s so funny, it’s dramatic and it is a level of petty like you haven’t seen that really makes me laugh.”

As for reports about The Real Housewives of New York City currently being on a temporary pause, Andy shared, “We’re casting, we’re between seasons. It’s not a recast, we’re just casting.”
