The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is wrapping up its 14th season, and fans have a lot of questions about what’s next — especially after Garcelle Beauvais announced her exit late last month.
According to her costar Erika Jayne, even the ladies themselves don’t know what’s coming. “No one knows who’s coming back,” the Pretty Mess author, 53, exclusively told Us Weekly on Wednesday, April 9. “That’s all up in the air.”
Erika’s assessment came in response to a question about whether she thinks Sutton Stracke has a path forward with her costars after a tumultuous season that saw her at odds with nearly everyone in the cast.
“I really think that’s on Sutton’s shoulders and how she responds to everyone in the cast,” Erika told Us. “We’ll see what happens. I guess if she comes back — if all of us come back, because no one really knows — we’ll see where she ends up with the rest of the ladies.”

While Bravo hasn’t announced any casting decisions for season 15, fans are already nervous about a potential shakeup because of Garcelle’s exit. The former soap star, 58, confirmed in March that she’s not coming back to the series after five seasons.
“Hey, guys, so I have some news. I’ve decided to leave Beverly Hills,” she said in a video shared via Instagram on March 25. “It’s been a wild ride. I mean, some amazing things have happened, and some hard things have also happened, but it’s been a ride nevertheless.”
Garcelle noted that she wants to spend more time with her youngest sons, 17-year-old twins Jax and Jaid, who will soon start their senior year of high school.
“I want to be a part of that, and Jaid is starting a new career, and I want to be a part of that too,” she continued. “Secondly, I have the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing and acting in. I can’t tell you anything right now, but you’ll know soon.”

After Garcelle’s announcement, Erika appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen and said she wasn’t surprised by her exit.
“We’ve known that she’s quit for two weeks. We knew this,” Erika said later on March 25. “She did not take the cast photo with us [at the reunion], which is a clear indication that, ‘I am leaving.’”
Erika, meanwhile, made an exit of her own on Wednesday following her elimination from The Masked Singer after competing as Yorkie. The former Broadway star exclusively told Us that she had an absolute blast performing on the Fox competition series.
“If you cannot have fun as a yorkie in a miniskirt and a crop top — I have no idea what else could be more perfect,” she quipped. “I love to perform. The production quality is amazing. The costumes are outrageous, and you get to just have a good time, so why not?”
Part 3 of the RHOBH season 14 reunion airs on Bravo Tuesday, April 15, at 8 p.m. ET. The Masked Singer airs on Fox Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET.
