The Real Housewives of Potomac has seen some changes in its lineup between Season 8 and Season 9. Candiace Dillard Bassett left, Robyn Dixon was let go, and Nneka Ihim’s return is uncertain.

Speculation mounts over who will fill their shoes as filming for the new season approaches. According to TVdeets.com, Keiarna Stewart, a friend of the cast introduced in Season 8, maybe stepping into a more prominent role.

She’s been offered a contract as an official friend of the housewives, potentially mirroring the trajectories of other reality stars who rose to fame in similar positions.

However, rumors also swirl that she could be promoted to a main cast member, despite the possibility of newcomer Stacey Rusch snagging a housewife spot.

Who Will Be the Next Star of RHOP?

Stewart’s journey on the show hasn’t been without drama, but her camaraderie with the cast suggests she’s a natural fit for the Potomac scene. Dillard Bassett’s departure leaves a void in the dynamic of the show, as her penchant for drama and candid commentary will be missed, with only a handful of confirmed returning wives for Season 9, anticipation brews for what’s next.

Fans eagerly await updates on Stewart’s role and what surprises Season 9 holds in store. While filming has yet to commence, viewers can catch up on past seasons of The Real Housewives of Potomac on Peacock, with Season 9 set to premiere in 2025.
