Heather Thomson is dishing on her return to The Real Housewives of New York City.

Heather appeared as a main cast member on the hit Bravo reality show in seasons five through seven, but has continued making guest appearances on the show.

She will now be returning as a guest again for the upcoming 13th season, which is premiering on Tuesday, May 4.

In a new interview promoting the upcoming season, Heather revealed that she was “assaulted” during filming.

“I get assaulted this season,” Heather said on the Friends of Dorothy podcast. “The show has changed a lot, breaking the fourth wall.”

Heather then alluded that it was at the hands of Leah McSweeney, who joined RHONY in season 12.

“People were interested in putting me down, dragging me down and showing me who is the queen bee,” Heather added. “I just don’t have time for that stuff. It’s the new girl who was intimidated and wanted to show who’s the queen bee.”

Back in March, Us Weekly reported that Heather had stopped filming RHONY after a “messy” exchange with Leah.

In the trailer for season 13 of RHONY, the drama between Heather and Leah is teased, with Leah referring to Heather as “a Karen.”

RHONY returns for season 13 on Wednesday, May 4 at 9pm ET on Bravo.

Tinsley Mortimer and Scott Kluth have broken up.

The 40-year-old CouponCabin CEO confirmed on Thursday (March 18) that he and the 45-year-old former Real Housewives of New York City star have decided to end their engagement

“After fourteen months of engagement, Tinsley and I have ended our relationship, and we have been living independently for the last few months,” Scott shared in a statement with People. “This was an incredibly difficult decision, but it is one that I believe is best for both of us. I will always care about Tinsley and I sincerely wish her happiness and success in all that she does in the future.”

“While I understand this news will be of interest to many, I ask for privacy and understanding during this time as I continue to work on recovering emotionally from the end of our relationship,” Scott concluded.

According to a source, Tinsley was “blindsided” about the split.

“This was not mutual, she was blindsided. She’s on the floor heartbroken and devastated. She left everything for him because she didn’t think he’d ever call off the engagement,” the source shared. “She trusted him that this time was going to be different.”

Tinsley and Scott first met in February 2017 when they were set up on a blind date by her RHONY co-star Carole Radziwill.

They dated on and off for years, before getting engaged in November 2019.

Tinsley then decided to leave RHONY and move to Chicago to live with Scott.

As of right now, Tinsley has not publicly addressed the split.

During the episode, she explained that she met the former rugby player on a dating app.

“Oh, he is too good to be true,” she said of her first reaction to his profile.

“I said, ‘Oh, my God! He’s exactly what he looks like on the app.’ He’s tall, he’s handsome, he looks like a Viking,” she added of her impression upon meeting up with him for the first time for a date.

While she confirmed the romance, she also said she is still “single”: “I’ve had a couple of dates here and there, you know with the pandemic in place it’s just been so hard to meet people. So my niece got me on Hinge and then got me on Raya, so I’ve been kind of flirting on some dating apps. It’s so much fun to date but with COVID it’s hard to date, so I feel like flirting is the next best thing,” she said.

“I don’t look at myself as famous — I really don’t. I’m just basically living my best life on The Housewives…I’m just a girl who’s looking to date really,” she said of being recognized on the apps.

“A guy is either like ‘I can handle that’ or ‘I can’t,’ so it weeds out a lot of people.”

She also opened up about her decision to drink again after going sober.

Eboni K. Williams is joining the cast.

The 37-year-old former Fox News host is joining Real Housewives of New York City, making her the first Black castmate in the series’ 12 season history, the network confirmed on Thursday (October 8).

Andy Cohen confirmed that she will be joining the cast for Season 13, which recently started production.

“Welcome to #RNONY,” he said.

“NYC is filled with successful and dynamic Black women. I’m excited to join this legendary franchise as the first Black housewife. Can’t wait to share a slice of life in this city that hasn’t been seen before,” she said in a statement.

She will be the youngest cast member on the show, which will include Leah McSweeney, Ramona Singer, LuAnn de Lesseps, and Sonja Morgan.

She is a former host of the Fox News show Fox News Specialists, which ran from May to September 2017, and a North Carolina native who went to UNC and got her law degree from Loyola University New Orleans College of Law. She co-hosted a talk show on WABC Radio in NYC, and currently co-hosts “State of the Culture” on Diddy‘s REVOLT TV.

One founding Housewife recently reacted to speculation about returning to the series.

Tinsley Mortimer is revealing why she and Dorinda Medley have beef.

During the reunion, as the two opened up about the breakdown of their friendship, Andy Cohen asked Dorinda: “What is your issue with Tinsley?”

“I believe half of what I hear in life and all of what I see. You guys saw just what was on the show. There was a lot of stuff that went on,” Dorinda said.

“What happened was, after [Scott Kluth and I] had broken up, when we were in Miami — this was season 11 — you and I got in this horrific fight that was not on camera because I had told you that Scott had generously given John [Mahdessian] (Dorinda‘s ex-boyfriend) some money that you did not know about,” Tinsley then shockingly revealed.

“I don’t know why we’re talking about John,” said Dorinda.

“The betrayal that you felt for John manifested to anger towards me. You took it out on me. You called John screaming,” Tinsley continued.

“It’s just not true,” Dorinda denied.

“The producers did not want me to stay in the house that night because you were going so crazy. They were worried for my safety. You turned on me that moment when you found out John had that money,” Tinsley revealed.

When asked if that was the real reason for their fallout, Dorinda said: “No, I didn’t even know about that.”

Viewers were then shown unseen footage from Season 11 of Dorinda confronting John about the situation.

“You don’t run game behind my back, ever. I don’t want you to talk to Scott. He’s not your friend. When I say to you don’t do something, you better f- well listen,” she was seen saying on the phone to John.

“I did nothing to you to make you hate me the way that you do. Your jealousy, your hatred, your obsession with my relationship. Hey, girl, I’m engaged. We’re getting married,” Tinsley said.

“With no financial security. Tinsley, I’d hate your life,” Dorinda added.

It was recently revealed that Tinsley is leaving RHONY for this reason. Dorinda is also leaving the franchise.

Leah McSweeney is not happy with Ramona Singer – and she’s letting everyone know about it.

The 37-year-old Real Housewives of New York City newcomer took to her Instagram to slam Ramona, 61, and daughter Avery Singer for traveling from New York City to quarantine in Baca Raton, Fla. in March and then returned home to the city as Florida’s virus cases began to spike.

“I am so disgusted by some of my castmates and their families who spent the entire f–king quarantine in Florida, living it up, showing everyone how they’re living it up,” Leah said in the video, which has now been deleted.

“Then Florida of course faces surge,” Leah continued. “They f–kng come back to New York and they’re out like nothing. Not quarantining. Not taking this s–t seriously. And basically laughing in all of our faces.”

Though Leah didn’t specifically name Ramona, fans noticed right away that Ramona was the only one in Florida during the quarantining, which she documented on her Instagram.

“F–k you guys,” Leah added while raising her middle finger to the camera. “How f–ked up is it that you think you’re going to reap the benefits of our hard work and possibly spread f–king COVID?”

Ramona then shared a statement with Page Six explaining her quarantine situation.

“My family and I quarantined in Florida for more than three months to stay together during this crisis,” Ramona shared. “It was the best thing we could have done for one another and I am so fortunate that my ex-husband [Mario Singer] offered for us to stay with him. It was always the plan to come back to New York at this time and we took every precaution possible while traveling. The continued health and safety of my family, friends and community is of the utmost importance to me.”

Ramona also recently came under fire for saying that “All Lives Matter.”
