There’s a new group ready to make waves.
The Real Housewives of Rhode Island is headed to Bravo, and the drama looks to be just as intense as the other spinoffs thanks to the series’ recently announced cast—complete with two familiar faces.
Joining the ranks of onscreen housewives is Bachelor Nation alum Ashley Iaconetti. The 37-year-old is trading rose ceremonies for gossip sessions in the Ocean State after settling in the home state of husband Jared Haibon.
Another onscreen regular joining the cast as a friend-of for its initial season is Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Dolores Catania, who is offscreen pals with cast member Liz McGraw—owner and operator of the state’s largest and most successful cannabis dispensary.
The other new faces finishing off the series’ cast is Alicia Carmody, a Rhode Island native who owns a pizzeria with her fiancé of eight years, Rosie DiMare, a former local TV news anchor, Rulla Nehme Pontarelli, a certified financial planner and wealth manager plus mom to two, former Miss Rhode Island and renowned makeup artist Kelsey Swanson, plus Jo-Ellen Tiberi, the self-proclaimed town gossip who juggles her career and life at home with her husband and three kids.
