Summary
Leah Remini and Tracy Tutor have joined “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” as full-time cast members for Season 16, with Remini set to start filming in Los Angeles later this week.
Season 16 is already in production and will feature an eight-woman full-time cast, alongside returning “friends” Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly; Amanda Frances was not asked back after Season 15.
Bravo’s cast reset comes as the franchise’s top-rated series faces persistent fan demands for an overhaul and speculation about exits by Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley that producers have denied.
The new season inherits unresolved drama from May’s reunion, including the fractured Richards-Kemsley friendship and headlines around Dorit Kemsley’s divorce from PK Kemsley.
Remini, 56, brings star power from “The King of Queens” and her Emmy-winning anti-Scientology work, while Tutor, 51, arrives from Bravo’s “Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles.”
