Bravo TV has added not one, but two new members to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast for the series’ upcoming 10th season.
Following the exit of longtime star Lisa Vanderpump, the network announced that actress Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke will be featured on the show’s new season, which began filming earlier this month. Bravo TV shared statements from both of the women in regard to their new roles.
“I am excited and proud to be joining the cast of such a wildly popular and beloved show like The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. As a working actor who has been in the industry for some time, it’s exhilarating to have the opportunity to delve into a new chapter in the entertainment spectrum,” Garcelle, 52, said in her statement to The Daily Dish on August 29.
“As the first African American Housewife in the Beverly Hills franchise, I am honored and humbled by this awesome opportunity to exemplify the fact that Black Girl Magic lives and thrives in every zip code!” she continued. “Already being intimately familiar with the spotlight of Hollywood…I’m excited to share the many ongoing daily surprises, laughs and joys of being a working mother in today’s crazy world. The hustle is R-E-A-L! No games, all heart and a little dash of fashion-filled sass is what you’ll get when you step into my sphere…and I wouldn’t have it any other way!”
Sutton is equally thrilled and honored to be joining the cast.
“As a mother to three children who is also deeply committed to my efforts in philanthropy, my life is a balancing act. There is a lot going on in the best way possible and I strive to pursue all of my passions to the fullest,” Sutton said in her statement. “I am excited to share my true loves of art and fashion design, and open the doors to my world. I am looking forward to this ride and where this journey takes me. Fun times ahead for this Southern Belle in Southern California!”
Following the news of Garcelle and Sutton’s additions, Camille Grammer, who has reportedly not yet been asked to return to the show for season 10, shared her thoughts.
“Garcelle is lovely. I think she will make a wonderful addition to the cast,” she said on Twitter. “She is classy and sweet.”
