The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ thirteenth season will feature an appearance from this Georgia Peach. Atlanta peach, get in! The women of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills have made room!
Cynthia Bailey was an integral member of The Real Housewives of Atlanta for ten seasons. However, the successful model and businesswoman is currently enjoying herself on the west coast and strengthening her relationships with the ladies of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Cynthia, who is close to her business partner Sutton Stracke, is anticipated to make a brief appearance in the 90210 zip code during RHOBH Season 13.
But just don’t expect Cynthia to return to being a Housewife full-time.
“I do not see a ‘Housewives’ return at this point in my life,” she said during a live taping of the Virtual Reali-Tea podcast in September. “I am actually really enjoying my acting career. We are on strike right now, please pray that that’s over soon.”
“I did 11 long years. I gave you guys two marriages, two divorces, like I just don’t have anything else to give you guys,” she continued, referencing her public divorces from husbands Peter Thomas and Mike Hill.
Although Cynthia acknowledges that she can already “check it off” as a life experience and may not be searching for a long-term commitment with the Real Housewives franchise at this time, she does acknowledge that she enjoys the odd drop-in.
“After 11 years of being a consistent peach holder on Atlanta, I do have organic relationships with a lot of the ladies, so I must admit, I did enjoy just being able to pop in on… Atlanta and Beverly Hills,” the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip star revealed. “I am pretty much focused on my acting career, but it is nice to be able to come home sometimes.”
How is Cynthia Bailey connected to RHOBH?
While Cynthia’s affiliation with RHOA is evident, her relationship with RHOBH might not be as well-known. Both Cynthia and Kyle Richards were on the first season of Real House Hustle Girls, and their romance continued even after the cameras stopped. Cynthia was photographed out for a great night in Los Angeles in 2021 after production wrapped up, together with several of the actors, including Teresa Guidice, Luann de Lesseps, and Kyle. Clearly, Cynthia and Kyle are starting to connect.
These days, Cynthia resides mostly in Los Angeles and maintains a close friendship with Sutton Stracke of RHOBH.
Their shenanigans together have been well documented on social media over the last year.
When the pair met up at Pendry West Hollywood earlier this year, Cynthia commemorated the day with a carousel of images on Instagram.
“Whew!!! time just flies when u are with this one! hours of a bunch of craziness & non-stop laughter!” Cynthia wrote alongside the images. “Everyone needs a little @suttonstracke in their life! so in love!”
The pair are even joining forces for a business collaboration. As Sutton announced in August, her sustainable fashion company Sutton Brands teamed with Cynthia to promote her new sustainable bedding line, Cynthia Bailey’s Collection.
“There’s no better way to announce [Sutton Brands’] first [sustainable fashion curator] with [Cynthia Bailey] than a trip to London for a hush birthday party!” Sutton wrote on Instagram as the pair vacationed in London together. “We welcome Cynthia with open arms and couldn’t wish for a better designer to join our team of [circular fashion] and [sustainable] warriors to help change our earth.”
In September, they were sighted together one more during the Virtual Reali-Tea podcast taping.
Regarding her impending appearance on RHOBH Season 13, an insider informed Entertainment Tonight that Cynthia went to Kyle’s party as Sutton’s guest.
The anonymous insider stated, “Cynthia is not an official cast member, but she is frequently invited to events by the cast and she chose to go to the dinner, even though cameras were rolling.” She may make sporadic appearances as a guest in the next season. It’s informal right now and nothing is official. Cynthia continues to prioritize her acting profession.”
RHOBH alums Denise Richards and Camille Grammer were also in attendance at the party. To find out just what happens when the Housewives reunite, tune in to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo or available streaming on Peacock.
