Real Housewives: Andy Cohen Wants Sheinelle Jones To Join RHONY

The Real Housewives host Andy Cohen and Bravo are searching for fresh cast members for the next season of RHONY. Among the new names being floated, American journalist Sheinelle Jones has also come up. She is a possible addition. Given Sheinelle’s fanbase and charm, there’s no doubt she’d be loved by viewers.

RHONY went on pause for the first time after season 13 failed to generate much buzz. Bravo rebooted the show, but by the end of season 15, it was clear the series wasn’t performing well. Now, with reports of Sheinelle Jones potentially joining the cast, Bravo might finally find the spark it’s been looking for.

Real Housewives: Andy Cohen Opens Up About ‘Terrible’ Bravo Reunion That Led To Weight-Loss Drug Use

Real Housewives host Andy Cohen recently opened up about a “terrible” Bravo reunion moment that inspired his physical transformation. Speaking with Sheinelle Jones and Jenna Bush Hager on Today, Cohen admitted he didn’t ‘look his best’ during The Valley Season 2 reunion in May. The reunion aired in July. Even struggling to button his suits, the 57-year-old admitted he felt frustrated seeing himself on camera every day. He focused on his health with a fitness plan and GLP-1 microdosing.

Cohen shared that his doctor had recommended the medication to help manage his weight. The medication also targets plaque in his arteries and high blood pressure. The treatment not only reduced his cravings but also motivated him to maintain a strict diet and workout routine. The Emmy winner shared that he got close to 190 pounds, then lost 25 on semaglutide, marking an important milestone in his health. Cohen recalled cutting back on alcohol six years ago, highlighting his dedication to wellness.

Finally, a sigh of relief for Real Housewives of New York fans, as Andy Cohen confirmed the show will be returning for a new season. Cohen revealed that they have selected ‘a few’ newbies, but Bravo officials haven’t finalized the rest yet. Also, Luann de Lesseps, former RHONY star, got fans talking by dropping hints, saying, “I think something’s cooking because there’s been a lot of talk about the OGs.”

Andy Cohen appeared on Today with Jenna and Friends and brought his iconic game, ‘Plead the Fifth,’ to the show with Sheinelle Jones and Jenna Bush Hager. On his show, Watch What Happens Live, he’s known for making guests play fun and naughty games. And that’s when he dropped the bomb by asking Shinelle if she would consider joining RHONY. “Okay, well, this didn’t get to me. Would you ever?” he asked.

Sheinelle’s phone, she admitted, had been “exploding” for the last 72 hours. “I can’t, no, stop looking at me,” she said, covering her face. Finally, with a smile, she responded, “I plead the Fifth.” Jenna reacted with, “You can’t leave us like that!” although Andy was visibly excited. “Yes, she can! It’s the game. And she left the door open!” Cohen said.

The mom of three came back to Today in September after taking an extended break. In May, Sheinelle lost her beloved husband, Uche Ojeh, to a rare and aggressive brain cancer. The latest episode of Today with Jenna and Friends thrilled fans. They are hoping Sheinelle actually considers joining the new season of RHONY.
