Andy Cohen just gave a hopeful update about The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
Bravo enthusiasts have been concerned about the series’ direction since RHONJ Season 14 wrapped up last August. With the ongoing feud between longtime figures and sisters-in-law, Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice, preventing them from filming together, Cohen, the show’s executive producer, hinted at the introduction of a fresh cast for Season 15. He even suggested that the Season 14 finale had the feel of a “series finale.” Speculation about the show ending was further fueled by Cohen’s comparison of it to the forthcoming Real Housewives of Rhode Island.
However, during today’s episode of The View, Cohen—who joined the Hot Topics segment to talk about BravoCon 2025—provided a promising update about the esteemed series.
“We are casting with Jersey too,” he mentioned. “It was on a significant break, but we are actively engaged in casting and planning the show’s future. It’s a fantastic franchise, and we cherish it. I just want to emphasize that.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey isn’t the only series that has Bravo fans in a tizzy. The Real Housewives of New York City, which got an entirely new cast in Season 14, was recently rumored to be going off the air as the network figured out what to do next. Cohen has since shut down the report, and he confirmed on The View that some of the current cast would “absolutely” be returning for Season 16 along with some newbies.
“It’s not over,” he said. “We are between seasons where we typically do a little casting, which is what’s happening now and we’re very close.”
While the Bravo icon is not an executive producer on Summer House, he also said he’d like to see Lindsay Hubbard and Paige DeSorbo continue their reality TV journeys — even if it’s not on the show that made them household names.
“I’m not an EP of Summer House so I really just watch as a fan,” he said. “These are people that we have fallen in love with and I think that they will continue to evolve in front of Bravo cameras in one way or another.”
The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
