The official logline for the show reveals that it will be “following a brand new group of seven dynamic women who are active in the same social circles and thriving in one of the most diverse and electric cities in the world.”
“From fashion and real estate to philanthropy and social influence, these women have made their mark in NYC and will now share their lives as they juggle careers, family life and overcrowded social calendars in the city that never sleeps.”

Bravo is also launching a ‘Legacy’ version of the show featuring original New York alums.
It comes after the show’s ratings plummeted during season 13, which stars Sonja Morgan, Leah McSweeney, Ramona Singer, Eboni K. Williams, and Luann de Lesseps.
Speaking about the show at BravoCon, Cohen said, “I think our plan is actually brilliant because we’re not just giving people a brand new reboot of The Real Housewives of New York, where we’re going to be telling new stories outside. of this little stamp area on the Upper East Side of these women we’ve been tracking for years.”
“But we can still be with the women we love, whatever the legacy show is called. And so I think this is the best of all possible worlds for RHONY fans.”
Real Housewives of New York City premiered on March 4, 2008 and starred Jill Zarin, Bethenny Frankel, Luann de Lesseps, Alex McCord, and Ramona Singer.
