LeAnn Rimes will not be holding a diamond anytime soon, as she shoots down rumors she’s joining The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The 9-1-1: Nashville star took to social media to debunk the reports and clarify that playing Dixie in the ABC drama is enough drama for her.
“No, no… no Housewives for me,” Rimes replied on Instagram, in a post shared by Ringer Reality TV.
She added, “Playing Dixie on 9-1-1: Nashville is drama enough for me.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 15 is wrapping up on Thursday, May 7, with the third part of the reunion airing on Bravo. With a new season expected to start filming in the next few months, Rimes’ name came up as a possible new cast member.
Rimes is part of the cast of 9-1-1: Nashville, playing the role of Dixie Bennings, a struggling musician and mother of Hunter McVey’s Blue. The series, produced by Ryan Murphy, has been renewed for a second season following a successful first season. The 9-1-1 spinoff ranks in the Top 10 dramas among Adults 18-49 in multi-platform viewing over seven days, with 9-1-1: Nashville standing as TV’s No. 1 new drama in the demo.
The current cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills includes Kyle Richards, Sutton Stracke, Erika Jayne, Amanda Frances, Dorit Kemsley, Bozoma Saint John and Rachel Zoe. Jennifer Tilly and Kathy Hilton are featured as friends of the Housewives throughout the season.
Brandi Glanville, a former star of RHOBH, took to social media to sarcastically say she hoped the rumors of Rimes joining the reality series were true, adding on X, “She got everything else of mine.” The former Real Housewives star is referring to Rimes marrying Glanville’s ex Eddie Cibrian.
