Andy Cohen Dishes On 'Ratchet' 'RHOBH' & Casting On 'RHONJ'
Last month, it was reported that Bravo was hoping to glam up The Real Housewives of New Jersey after cast member Teresa Giudice went to prison for crimes of bank and wire fraud. In an interview with E! News, a source claimed producers were planning on a "fresh start" with new housewives.
"When producers approached Traci, they told her they were revamping the show," a source told the site. "Their goal is to include more well-known names and make New Jersey look more glamorous, like the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
"Potential new cast members are being told the show will take an entirely different direction," the source continued. "The focus isn't going to be on Teresa and her family's legal troubles. It's time for a fresh start. More fun and more glam. They're meeting with a lot of women and trying to determine what ensemble will work best for the show."
The Real Housewives of New Jersey has yet to be officially renewed by Bravo.
