Days before BravoCon, it was being said that former cast members Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, Dorinda Medley and Carole Radziwill will all be returning, joining most recent cast members Sai de Silva, Jessel Taank and Erin Lichy, plus two brand new cast members.

At his panel, Andy teased the RHONY cast is “close” to being finalized and the above casting rumors are simply “not true.”

He also responded to a fan who shared their disappointment about the cast of the last couple seasons.

“The original New York had 13 incredible seasons. Half of them have moved to Florida,” Andy said, via Us Weekly. “We’ll always be in business with these guys. We always want to work with them. You know what? 13 years of a great series is — be happy that it happened.”

Back in May, Andy addressed cancelation rumors and revealed network executives met with 10 potential new housewives.

Julia Fox has revealed previously that she would entertain the idea of joining RHONY.
