Dorinda Medley Joins The Golden Life: Real Housewives of New York City Reboot Series
Dorinda Medley has been announced as the latest addition to the cast of the Real Housewives of New York City reboot series, The Golden Life. The show will follow the lives of Medley and other cast members in Palm Beach, Florida, away from the hustle and bustle of New York City. Medley expressed her excitement about joining the show and reuniting with her friends in a statement. The 10-episode season, produced by Blink49 Studios, is set to start filming in the spring.
Medley will be joining Kelly Bensimon, Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, and Ramona Singer on The Golden Life. The announcement of Medley's casting came shortly after Jill Zarin was let go from the show due to controversial comments she made about Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show performance. Blink49 Studios confirmed Zarin's departure from the show in a statement, citing their commitment to upholding company standards and values.
Zarin faced backlash for her remarks about Bad Bunny's performance, which she called "the worst halftime show ever." She expressed her concerns about the performance being in Spanish and perceived it as a political statement. Zarin later acknowledged her mistake and removed the video from her Instagram, stating that she is only human and people make mistakes.
The Golden Life marks the return of the Real Housewives of New York City franchise, following a reboot in 2022 for its 14th season with a new cast. The upcoming season will showcase the lives of the cast members in Palm Beach, offering viewers a glimpse into their friendships and experiences in a new setting.
