RHOBH’s Rachel Zoe Shares Her Real Feelings About Leah Remini & Tracy Tutor Joining Season 16

Rachel Zoe is heading into her second season of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” with two new castmates, and she’s looking forward to seeing what they bring to the group.

During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Rachel, 55, shared her excitement about Leah Remini and Tracy Tutor joining the cast for season 16.

“I’m all for it,” she said. “I mean, it’s just about the more the merrier. [I] love new people and you know, hopefully we can laugh a lot.”

Bravo confirmed in August that Leah and Tracy, who previously appeared on “Million Dollar Listing,” would join the upcoming season. They’ll be filming alongside returning Housewives Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, Sutton Stracke, and Bozoma Saint John, with Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly also expected to return.

Rachel Zoe Is Ready for Anything as She Heads Into Her Second RHOBH Season

After her first season as a Housewife, Rachel is approaching season 16 with no expectations about how the other women will behave.

She told Us Weekly that she feels prepared for whatever happens and knows she can only control her own words and actions. As for having a strategy before filming begins, Rachel isn’t interested in making elaborate plans.

“I just wing everything that I do, pretty much,” she admitted with a laugh. “Especially this. I mean, it’s kind of hard to preemptively do anything with reality.”

Between the returning cast and two new Housewives, Rachel will have to take things as they come rather than worry about situations she can’t control.

Rachel Opens Up About Her Health and Happiness Ahead of the New Season

Outside of RHOBH, Rachel has partnered with Aflac on a limited-edition jacket designed to encourage cancer screening awareness. The jacket features a QR code that takes users to an online cancer screening assessment, with those who complete it getting a chance to win one.

The project is personal for Rachel, who turned 55 in September. With family members and close friends affected by cancer, she’s particularly passionate about encouraging people to stay informed about their health and recommended screenings.

Rachel is also enjoying this chapter of her life. She told Us Weekly that she’s embracing greater freedom while keeping her children, family, and health at the top of her priority list.

In fact, she said she’s the happiest she’s felt in years.

“I’m probably the happiest I’ve been in forever,” she shared. “I think I do live my life now with much more freedom in all areas.”
