The fourth season of the Real Housewives of New York came to a close last night, and one cast mate isn't sure she'll be returning for the franchises' fifth season.
“I don’t even know if I’m coming back,” Kelly Bensimon told Boston Herald's Inside Track. “None of us are for sure. It’s up to Bravo and casting. They may want to switch it up and change the game.”
Even if she doesn't come back, she is grateful for what the show and Bravo have given her during her run on the hit show.
“I think the best thing I’ve gotten out of it is that when most women get divorced, it’s a daunting moment. I think getting divorced and being single and responsible for two children is a lot, emotionally and financially,” said Bensimon. “I think the greatest thing about it is it’s afforded me the luxury to reinvent myself, and do something out of the box. Bravo has afforded me an entirely new life at 43.”
Of the 2 part reunion special, Kelly said: “Our reunion shows are a free-for-all. It’s nice to be like ‘You’re lying.’ ”
So were you guys as shocked as I was when I found out the Ramona Singer was NOT pregnant?! Bravo really threw me for a loop with that one! (sarcasm)

"[My boobs] are like melons now," Ramona tells Sonja. "I haven't even told [my husband] Mario that I'm late yet."
Ramona adds that her "breasts are huge and they hurt. The last time they were like this was when I was pregnant with Avery." Wow, that's one hell of a memory!
The Real Housewives of New York City finale airs tonight at 10:00PM EST on Bravo.
Real Housewife of New YorkKelly Bensimon is happy for Bethenny Frankel's success and spinoff show. No, really.
"I love it when people do well," she told me during our exclusive interview with her as she showed us around East Hampton. "The better that she does, the better the franchise of Housewives does."
Kelly Bensimon attends the Cinema Society with Ivanka Trump Jewelry & Diane Von Furstenberg screening of "Snow Flower And The Secret Fan" at the Tribeca Grand Hotel on July 13, 2011 in New York City.
"I'm very proud of you for doing it, but I have a daughter. I'm a role model," was Ramona's response. "I'm a mother and I raise my daughter differently than you."
Countess asks, "What is that supposed to mean?"
"I spend a lot of time with her," Singer explains. "That's why she is the way she is. She's a great girl and I'm very lucky."
Never lacking a good come-back, the Countess responds, "It is amazing how she turned out, I can tell you that."
Fighting words! Don't forget to watch the new episode of the Real Housewives of New York City tomorrow night at 10:00PM on Bravo.
On tonight's episode of Real Housewives of New York, we get to see Countess LuAnn as she heads to the recording studio to listen to her single and make some finishing touches with the producer.
Where's the drama in that, you may ask? She invites Jill to join her -- and she does a little more than sit back and listen.
“The words are great, but I think if you are going for the club market, more dance,” Jill suggests. “It sounds like chorus, dance, chorus, dance — and maybe it should be dance, chorus, dance, chorus. I don’t know. I’m just saying I want to hear you sing, but I also want to be able to dance. I don’t want to dance over your singing.”
“I love Jill, and Jill loves to take over as my manager, but I don’t think Chris really wanted her advice on how to mix his music,” she told cameras.
See for yourself how it all goes down tonight on the Real Housewives of New York City at 10:00PM on Bravo.
Lately, there have been rumors swirling that Real Housewives of New York City star Sonja Morgan is losing her $6M townhouse in New York because of her divorce from her ex-husband John Adams Morgan and now she's setting the record straight -- and asking for privacy during this time.
“I have not made public my financial status affected by my divorce and outstanding business matters as I prefer to keep these matters private. However, it has now become public only due to my Chapter 11 filing, and has raised a lot of questions in the media, along with incorrect assumptions and statements,” Sonja said in her statement. “Many times divorce can be difficult especially when significant assets are co-mingled. Out of respect to my ex-husband, our families, my brand and future ventures, I ask that the media understand that during negotiations with interested parties on all sides I will not be able to discuss any details.”
“I appreciate all the support and professional advice I have received,” Sonja adds. “I look forward to discussing all of this and more as I move forward and my current situation is settled.”
Her role wasn't much of a stretch - she plays a rich housewife who is bidding for eligible bachelors (well maybe the 'bidding for bachelors' part was a bit of a stretch).
"It was truly a dream come true to work with the entire cast and crew of White Collar," Zarin told Us Weekly. "Everyone made me feel very comfortable and I loved every minute of
And don't forget to watch Jill every Thursday on the Real Housewives of New York City season 4 at 10:00PM on Bravo!
