Is Jackie O's Niece The Next Real Housewife Of New York?

Carole Radziwill on Oprah

Ever since the SHOCKING announcement last week that three of the current Real Housewives of New York are getting the boot, rumors have been a-flying about who will replace the dearly departed ladies. The latest? Oh, you know, why not throw a little Camelot lore into the mix?

Supposedly, one of the ladies being eyed is Carole Radziwill, the widow of Anthony Radziwill, whose aunt was Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Radziwill, who was close with Carolyn Bessette Kennedy and John F. Kennedy Jr. before they died, is a former ABC News reporter who worked with Diane Sawyer and Peter Jennings, and she could fulfill the show's very important "single lady" quota for the season. The other ladies rumored to be in the running include Aviva Drescher, a "Wall Street wife," and Heather Thomson, who runs a shapewear line called Yummie Tummie, a name that turns our tummies right quick. (Oprah, for what it's worth, feels differently.)

Meanwhile, gainfully employed Housewife Ramona Singer is denying that she pushed Jill Zarin out to make room for her friends, saying "I'm way too busy getting drunk and Ramotional to care."

Can you imagine Silex at a gathering with these new women and Sonja and Luann.. The operable word is scathing. They must have it in their contracts not to be associated with these two and Jill.
I wouldn't be surprised if Luann through them under the bus as well after tghe ill fated trip to Morocco. Ghastly, thumping down the stairs with a pretend argument to protect Ramona of all people.

I just got a $ 829.99 iPåd2 for only $ 103.37 and my mom got a $ 1498.99 HDTV for only $ 251.92, they are both coming with USPS tomorrow. I would be an id!ot to ever pay full retàil prìcès at placès like Wàlmàrt or Bèstbuy. I sold a 37" HDTV to my boss for $ 600 that I only paid $ 78.24 for.
I use G R A B P E N N Y . C O M

I also read somewhere that Alex & Simon (especially Simon!) are essentially offering Andy 'anything' to stay on the show ...

it is all over the place that this is happening. Simon doesn't want to have to work a real job. Wait until the Egyptiam towel people try to dump him.
