Magic Jersey

Let it be known that the Real Househusbands of New Jersey are everything and are a huge part of why the Garden State franchise does so well. At BravoCon 2023, the men, who consisted of Joe Gorga, Frank Catania, and Joe Benigno, all took to the stage to strut their stuff alongside some authentic Magic Mike dancers. The three dads wore jeans and bow ties as they felt the music and humped the stage. It can never be said that these guys don’t know how to put on a good show. 

Below Deck Is Back

Attendees learned that even though Captain Lee Rosbach has retired, the beloved Below Deck series will be returning for another charter season in February. However, the most shocking news was that Captain Kerry Titheradge would be the replacement. Kerry did well for himself on Below Deck Adventure and has now been upgraded to the main skipper. The super teaser showed Kerry paying homage to the “big shoes” he had to fill but noted that he “liked it that way.”

The very first panel on Friday shared that Vanderpump Rules Season 11 would premier in January. The Season 11 trailer showed the aftermath and fallout of Scandoval, with the note, “What a difference one scandal makes.” The trailer then showed James Kennedy drawing a literal line in the sand, telling Tom Sandoval not to cross it. The entire cast is back, including Lisa Vanderpump, Ariana, Katie Maloney, Lala, Scheana Shay, Brock Davies, Tom Schwartz, and Ally Lewber

Lisa could be heard standing up for Tom Sandoval, noting “everything has gone wrong in his life” as a clip showed Tom once again crying. Scheana’s in a pickle as she tries to figure out if she can be friends with both Sandoval and Ariana. As the trailer hinted, “Get pumped to pick up the pieces.”

Leave it to Brynn Whitfield to make an entrance! The Real Housewives of New York City star was lucky to escape without injuries after her white Christian Louboutin heels got caught in a moving escalator! It seems Brynn had a notion that her heels were going to get stuck and jumped out of them at the last second, quickly proving she wasn’t in Kansas anymore.
