The Real Housewives of New York City Season 15Big drama is coming back to the Big Apple this fall when The Real Housewives of New York City returns for its milestone fifteenth season.
Bravo dropped the trailer for the upcoming installment of the franchise, which will only be the second go-around for Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Lichy, Jenna Lyons, Jessel Taank and Brynn Whitfield — who all joined when the network rebooted the series back in 2022.
Joining them will be new Housewife Racquel Chevremont, whose casting was announced in June. The model turned art curator is the show's second queer Housewife next to Lyons.

There's also newcomer Rebecca Minkoff. And PEOPLE reported in April, the famed fashion designer will be a Friend on the series — though judging from the trailer, she's involved in a bulk of the action.
After being shaded by Whitfield for having a collection sold "at Nordstrom Rack," Minkoff — who boasts about building a "$100 million company" — is forced to defend her stance as member of the Church of Scientology.
"If people ask us about the Scientology s---, what do you want us to say?" Whitfield asks her.
"No comment," Minkoff shoots back.

Rebecca MinkoffRumors then begin to spread about someone being pregnant, with Taank seemingly saying that this woman "had this wild night and ended up getting pregnant by some other guy,"
"You f---ing told her," an upset Minkoff appears to say afterwards. "What did you say?"
It's unclear how the salacious gossip plays out from there, or who exactly Taank was talking about. PEOPLE reached out to Minkoff's reps for comment about the clip.
Back in January 2023, Minkoff told PEOPLE that she and Bellour had welcomed their fourth child, son Leonardo Scout. He joined siblings Luca, 12, Bowie, 10 and Nico, 6.
"Our family is complete!" she said in a statement at the time.
Bravo
Ubah HassanTaank's loose lips has her admitting to being "a pigeon" in the RHONY trailer, though according to Hassan, there are other pigeons among the cast. The model and hot sauce maven even hosts a pigeon-themed party where she says "everyone here is a pigeon."
"Pigeons, they're everywhere," she says.
Clips then flash of other Housewives, gossiping while also defending themselves against hearsay. "I didn't say she was poor, it's insane," Lichy says, while Chevremont shouts to someone, "This is f---ed up, you need to talk to Erin!"
"I sucked a d--- to get a job?" an accusatory Whitfield says, as she appears to confront Lichy for spreading that rumor.
Bravo
Erin LichyTensions this season especially boil over between Whitfield and Hassan, who have two of the most explosive fights in the trailer.
"Darling, go Google my name," Hassan says, as Whitfield tells her, "You're not Naomi [Campbell], you're not Gisele [Bündchen]."
"Naomi wish! Gisele wish!" Hassan claps back.
But Whitfield gets in the last quip. "You're delusional," she says. "You model for dress barn!"

Brynn WhitfieldOf course this being Real Housewives, there will still be plenty of laughs among the fighting, plus some deeply personal storylines.
