Rachel Zoe is trading styling celebs for stirring the pot.
The renowned fashion designer and former Bravo star has confirmed her participation in The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for its 15th season. She made this announcement on Instagram on Friday, June 6.
“Here we go again @bravotv !!!✨ I am officially joining #TheRealHousewivesofBeverlyHills and reuniting with my Bravo family. Let’s do this! 💎 #RHOBH,” Zoe wrote in her post.
In a video alongside the announcement, she shared with fans, “It’s been some time, and you have been wanting me back on TV. I always said I’d return when the time was right, or I had enough to share with you all, and now that time has come. I’m thrilled to be back with you, and I hope you’re just as excited, so let’s enjoy this! Mwah!”
Zoe, 53, isnât new to reality TV. She first made waves on Bravo with The Rachel Zoe Project, which ran from 2008 to 2013 and followed her high-glam life as a celebrity stylist. Since then, sheâs continued to influence the fashion world through her lifestyle brand and newsletter, The Zoe Report, which launched in 2009.
Even White Lotus fans might recognize her influence. Back in March, actress Leslie Bibb revealed that she used Zoe as inspiration for one of her characters. âDidn’t Bravo have The Rachel Zoe Project?â Bibb asked on Andy Cohen Live. âI based one character totally on some part of Rachel Zoe, like that world.â
Zoe’s return to Bravo comes at a time of personal transformation. In 2024, she and longtime husband Rodger Berman â with whom she shares sons Skyler, 13, and Kaius, 10 â announced their separation.
âAfter 33 years together and 26 years married, Rodger and I have come to the mutual decision to end our marriage,â the pair shared in a joint Instagram statement last September. âWe are incredibly proud of the loving family we have created and our countless memories together.â
They added, âOur number one priority has been and will always be our children. We are committed to co-parent our boys and to continue to work together within the many businesses we share.â
Zoeâs casting fills a major vacancy left by Garcelle Beauvais, who exited the franchise earlier this year after five seasons. Beauvais said her decision was rooted in family and future career plans.
âOne of the reasons why Iâm leaving is my family, my boys. Their last year of high school is next year and I want to be a part of that,â she said. âAnd secondly, I have the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing and acting in â I canât tell you anything now but youâll know soon.â
Season 14 also featured Kyle Richards, Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, Sutton Stracke, Bozoma Saint John, plus recurring appearances by Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly â though Bravo has yet to confirm whoâs coming back for Season 15.
New drama, new diamonds, and the return of a Bravo legend? Rachel Zoeâs RHOBH era is officially happening.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is streaming on Peacock.
