Rachel Zoe Enters Season 15 of RHOBH on Bravo
Rachel Zoe is making a significant comeback to reality television with her appearance on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The 53-year-old fashion designer is joining the cast of the show as a full-time Housewife for its 15th season, as Bravo exclusively revealed to Us Weekly on Friday, June 6.
“I am thrilled to be returning to Bravo and joining the cast of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills!” Zoe said in an exclusive statement to Us. “I’ve been embracing my new life, and it felt like the right moment to return to television and share everything with you. Here we go … RZ 2.0!”
Zoe’s inclusion in the RHOBH cast signifies her return to Bravo over ten years after her own reality series, The Rachel Zoe Project, wrapped up. The show aired for five seasons from September 2008 to April 2013, showcasing Zoe’s career as a celebrity stylist and designer, along with her personal life.
Since the conclusion of The Rachel Zoe Project, Zoe has remained a vital influence in the fashion world through styling, designing, and her daily newsletter, The Zoe Report, launched in 2009.
Recently, Zoe was somewhat coy when Us inquired about her potential return to reality television.
“We’ll see. If the right opportunity arises and everything aligns perfectly, and I have a lot to share, then maybe,” she teased at the Living Beauty Cancer Foundation’s Spring Luncheon & Fundraiser in Beverly Hills, California, on May 30.
Regarding her personal life, Zoe announced her separation from her husband, Rodger Berman, in September 2024 after 26 years of marriage. (The couple shares two sons: Skyler, aged 14, and Kaius, aged 11.)
“After 33 years together and 26 years married, Rodger and I have mutually decided to end our marriage,” Zoe wrote in an Instagram statement. “We are incredibly proud of the loving family we’ve created and the countless memories we’ve shared.”
She further expressed, “Our top priority has always been and will continue to be our children. We are dedicated to co-parenting our boys and will keep collaborating within our shared business ventures. We kindly ask for privacy as we navigate this new chapter.”
Some stars of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills have been part of the Bravo sensation since its inception, like Kyle Richards, while others have shown that diamonds don’t last forever. The sixth installment of the Real Housewives franchise was announced in March 2010, launching its first season seven months later.
In October 2024, Zoe shared exclusively with Us that she has been relying on her female friends for support after her separation from Berman, 56.
“Honestly, what I’ve discovered is that I have the most wonderful friends in the world. I really do. Many of them,” she remarked at the time. “I feel incredibly blessed and grateful for that. Every single day, I wake up with a full heart.”
Zoe added that she felt “very strong” and was “approaching each day as it comes.”
Season 14 of RHOBH aired from November 2024 to April 2025, featuring stars such as Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, and Bozoma Saint John, with guest appearances by Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly. In March, Beauvais announced her departure from the reality series after five seasons, citing her desire to spend more time with family and focus on her acting and producing projects.
