WATCH THE VIDEO HERE It’s Over (For Now): Real Housewives of New York City Canceled as Bravo Hits Pause on the Big Apple It’s the end of an era — again. The Real Housewives of New York City has officially been canceled, according to Page Six, with Bravo quietly pulling the plug and placing the franchise on indefinite ice. Yes, honey. RHONY has entered her “it’s not a breakup, it’s a break” era — but if we’re being honest, it’s giving full ghosting vibes. Insiders say the network still has “hopes” to reconfigure the show in the future, but there’s “no great expectation” that it’ll be back anytime soon. Translation: don’t hold your breath for apple-holding confessional looks in 2025. “We’re trying to figure that show out,” said one source close to production. “We think there’s still life in it.” Girl… not them calling it a show with potential like it’s a Hinge match who texts back once a week. Let’s rewind: Back in 2021, Bravo — in one of its most dramatic plot twists to date — decided to split the franchise in two. The “main” RHONY would get a full cast overhaul (new faces, new fashion, new drama), while a second show, RHONY: Legacy, would reunite the O.G. girls like Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, Kelly Bensimon, and Jill Zarin. Spoiler alert: neither half made it past season one. The Legacy version crumbled during contract negotiations (reportedly over money, duh) and was repackaged as a Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip mini-event. Meanwhile, the rebooted main show debuted in 2023 with a chic, diverse new cast that included fashion it-girl Jenna Lyons, influencer Sai De Silva, model Ubah Hassan, and a cast of NYC power women ready to bring the heat. And while it was refreshing — and let’s be honest, better styled — the show just didn’t deliver that classic, messy, martini-fueled, Ramona-level chaos fans craved. It had cool clothes and “cool girl” energy, but RHONY was built on delusion, dollar pizza fights, and Countess-level absurdity. Without that… the apples felt a little soft. Now, Bravo seems to be letting RHONY go quietly, in the hopes that maybe — just maybe — it can one day return with a revamped structure and the right balance of new blood and O.G. legends. Think The Real Housewives of Miami, which came back from cancellation in 2013 and finally returned (in stunning fashion) in 2021. But for now? RHONY has officially entered Housewives purgatory. And with Bravo focusing on its stronger franchises — Beverly Hills, Potomac, Salt Lake City — it’s clear the Big Apple isn’t top priority. So pour one out for the RHONY girls — old and new. Whether you lived for Bethenny’s clapbacks, Luann’s cabaret arc, or Brynn flirting her way through brunch, we can all agree: RHONY gave us moments. Here’s hoping Bravo figures it out. Because NYC without Housewives? That’s not just boring — it’s basically illegal. 
Real Housewives Of New York Is Now CANCELLED!!
