It’s the end of the road for one set of Real Housewives.
According to a Page Six report, Bravo is not bringing back The Real Housewives of New York City.
The report follows Bravo’s announcement of four new shows earlier this week: The Real Housewives of Rhode Island, The Valley: Persian Style, Ladies of London, and Wife Swap: The Real Housewives Edition.
Bravo also announced the renewal of several long-running shows — but Real Housewives of New York City was noticeably absent from that list.
Rumors about the future of the franchise had been swirling after viewers harshly critiqued the most recent season, which put pranks and lies at the center of the drama.
After its debut in 2008, RHONY (as its known) became a mainstay on the network. The show catapulted the careers of Bethenny Frankel, Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, and Ramona Singer, among others. It also became responsible for infamous and viral pop culture moments and memes.
But the show has also been bogged down by controversy the last few years.
Season 13 — filmed during the COVID pandemic — saw the introduction of the franchise’s first-ever full-time Black housewife, Eboni K. Williams.
It was briefly off-air after season 13 but was rebooted with an entirely new cast for seasons 14 and 15 that included Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Dana Lichy, Jenna Lyons, Jessel Taank, and Brynn Whitfield.
