Following weeks of will she or won’t she, the Daily Truffle blog is reporting that Camille Grammer is officially off the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
This report comes as a surprise as E! News just reported two weeks ago that Camille would be returning.
The Daily Truffle is however a very reliable source when it comes to RHOBH news considering it first broke the news of the Beverly Hills franchise back in 2009 as well as the news of some of the cast members back in January 2010, well before the show even started filming.
According to the blog, Bravo has already re-cast a new housewife to replace Camille, meaning at least one new housewife will be on the show next season. There might be more as Kim Richards is also a question mark when it comes to a second season.
The site does not name Camille’s replacement though TMZ stated earlier this month that Bravo was in talks with Jeanie Buss, Brandi Glanville, and Jennifer Flavin Stallone as possible replacements.
It’s also not clear if Camille quit the show or if Bravo fired her. TMZ reported last month that some Bravo producers were upset with Camille as she had a history of quitting the show and then having a change of heart. Sources told TMZ back then that “Camille walked off the show several times during the taping, saying she was “done with the show.” In at least one case, scenes had to be shot without her. But every time, Camille had a change of heart and returned.”
In fact, Camille herself admitted last week that she did indeed quit the show at one point during filming, though the TMZ story stated Camille has quit the show more than once.
And also last month, TMZ confirmed Camille got her attorneys to force Bravo to let her out of her contract aka she wanted to quit, only for her to change her mind once Bravo released her from having to do a second season. Perhaps Bravo was tired of the back and forth.
This news would also make sense as Camille was reportedly wanting to do a second season to repair her tainted image. However, things have been going Camille’s way in the past few weeks as other cast members have taken some heat away from her plus she has received two major entertainment gigs, including a guest spot on a CBS sitcom and her upcoming Oscars red carpet hosting gig for the CNN network.
So why ruin a good thing by coming back to the show and showing your true colors again? It seems Camille is wanting to play it safe by simply walking away from the show with some momentum on her side.
