Even the Real Housewives of New York City casting of Jenna Lyons had a purpose.

The reality show’s new season 14 roster also includes Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Dana Lichy, Jessel Taank, and Brynn Whitfield, all Bravo newcomers. However, the celebrity claims that before to being questioned about the RHONY relaunch in an interview, she had no intention of becoming a housewife.

At the American Natural History Museum’s 2022 Gala in NYC on December 1, she exclusively revealed to  correspondent Carolina Bermudez, “I was on a podcast and somebody mentioned whether I knew that there was going to be a reboot and I didn’t.” “Afterward, they questioned, “Would you ever do it?” And I responded, “Sure.””

But it was what happened after the interview that put the cherry on top of her Bravo dreams. “They did a little mock-up of me with Photoshop,” the 54-year-old shared. “And I, all of a sudden, was like, ‘Okay, maybe. Why not?’ And it sort of happened by accident.”

“It’s so different than what I expected,” she continued, “which I think is a good thing.”

As for whether RHONY executive producer Andy Cohen has a favorite among the series’ new lineup of ladies? “There hasn’t been any interaction, so we’re at the beginning,” Jenna revealed, before adding, “But, I bet it’d be me.”
