Julia Fox thinks The Real Housewives of New York City needs a shakeup — and she’s just the person to do it.
The model and actress, 34, revealed Wednesday, January 22, on the Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen After Show that she would join the long-running Bravo franchise. She also wants another famous face to join her.
“You know what, I would do a season and see how it goes,” Fox told host Andy Cohen when he asked if she’d consider joining the cast. “I just need to shake it up a little bit.”
The topic of conversation came up after Fox recommended Cohen — an executive producer on the Real Housewives franchise — cast convicted felon Anna Delvey on the NYC iteration.

“I love her. She’s an icon. She’s funny. She has a very dry sense of humor,” Fox complimented Delvey, 34, before having a sudden brainwave.
“Put her on RHONY!” Fox enthusiastically told Cohen, before adding, “Put me on RHONY!”
The idea went down well with fellow WWHL guest Bronwyn Newport, one of the stars of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. “Chaos! Put both of them, please!” Newport enthused.
The current cast of RHONY comprises Jenna Lyons, Ubah Hassan, Brynn Whitfield, Jessel Taank, Sai De Silva, Erin Lichy and Racquel Chevremont.

During the Tuesday, January 21, season 15 finale, Brynn and Ubah got into an explosive fight that threatened to fracture the group. Brynn claimed that she had privately revealed to Ubah she had been sexually assaulted in the past, something Ubah denied knowing about. The majority of their costars supported Ubah and accused Brynn of lying.
“Brynn, I love her, but she kind of lost me this season a little bit,” Fox weighed in on Wednesday’s episode of WWHL. “She’s really kind of demonic a little bit,” she added of the season finale, while Cohen agreed that the episode was “very dark.”
In an interview with Rolling Stone Wednesday, Brynn stood by her version of events. “It’s not right to assume that everyone remembers everything that you say all the time and then hold them accountable for that,” Brynn explained to the publication. “I know for a fact that I said it, but when someone’s screaming into the phone, the other person might not necessarily hear them. … I know what I said and I know that I did say it.”
