Bravo made sure to “mention it all” at BravoCon 2023, dropping show teasers and more bombshell revelations.
The third annual convention kicked off in Las Vegas on Friday, November 3, with more than 150 Bravolebrities appearing at Caesars Forum throughout the weekend.
“I predict chaos. I predict people overdrinking and being overserved in Vegas,” Bravo superfan Danny Pellegrinoexclusively told Us Weekly last month, speculating about what would go down at the three-day convention. “And I had a dream that I’m sitting at a blackjack table with Karen Huger [and] just gambling.”
He continued: “I’m really excited about the announcements. Usually, there’s always either new shows or new trailers for seasons. So, that’s what I’m most excited about.”

Lisa Vanderpump Reacts to Raquel Leviss’ ‘Pump Rules’ Exit
“I think she should’ve come back and spoken to me. And when I say [it would have been] a safe place, I am not putting it out there that it would be anything ever less than safe, but it would be nobody interrupting [her],” Lisa told Us. “Where she could’ve had a conversation and really shared her thoughts because I would be ready to hear that. And I would’ve liked to have seen the growth.”
As networks make decisions about their roster of shows, Us Weekly will continue to track what has been renewed and which projects have been canceled.

After being accused in a Vanity Fair exposé of using the N-word in front of a Black crew member during season 13 of RHONY — and nearly repeating the slur in a text message to a Page Six staffer asking for her response to the article — Ramona skipped the convention. A source told Us that Ramona was “distraught” and planned to “lay low,” while a second insider revealed “it was not her choice to not attend.”
Us confirmed that her daughter, Avery, made an appearance on Friday as her business, Bach Boss, has a booth at the Bravo Bazaar. According to an eyewitness, Avery was in good spirits after her mom’s controversy.
“It feels good to be here in Vegas with everybody. It’s BravoCon, it’s crazy,” the TomTom founder quipped to moderator Karamo Brown. “I’d rather stand here and face it. I don’t know what you do.”
Both Brock and Lala attempted to defend Sandoval. “In a weird, weird way, I don’t care if you f–king boo me,” Lala chimed in. “With everyone really hating on Tom, he still went out, he still performed shows. Life went on. … If I were in his position, I’d tell y’all to go f–k off.”
Teresa Giudice also received a strong reaction from fans after she confirmed her relationship with her brother, Joe Gorga, and his wife, Melissa Gorga, was over. “First of all, I’m living this journey and I’m all about family and respect and trust. Sorry. That chapter is closed with my brother, unfortunately. It really is,” she said during RHONJ’s cast panel, after which she was booed by fans.
Ariana Reveals Her and Sandoval’s Living Arrangements
Ariana, who is currently competing on Dancing With the Stars, revealed during the Pump Rules panel that they are not still living in their jointly-owned home.
“I’m currently staying somewhere while I’m doing Dancing because of the chaotic schedule,” she said. “Actively trying to change the ownership of the house situation.”
Airing Uncensored Versions
Andy Cohenannounced that for the first time, all Real Housewives and other Bravo franchises will air un-bleeped versions on Peacock.
“Every reunion is going to be f–king uncensored on Peacock,” Andy said during his panel. “Isn’t it fun hearing the F-words in real life?”

From Vegas to Bravo
The TV network ordered a documentary leading up to the opening night of Erika Jayne’s Las Vegas residency. Erika Jayne: Bet It All on Blonde will premiere in the spring of 2024 and air in two parts.
“The O.G. bitches are back,” Luann declared in the teaser followed by footage of the cast’s arrival in St. Barts. The clip teased plenty of wild and wacky moments in store for the cast, from the return of Ramona’s “turtle time” catchphrase to a party with attractive men, to one of the ladies receiving medical attention after losing a toenail and more.
Everyone Loves Captain Jason
Below Deck Down Under captain Jason Chambers is clearly the No. 1 guy at BravoCon, who all the single ladies want to meet (and date).
“Well, I’m a bachelor, right? I am on Bravo, so I’m going to lap it up [and] enjoy it,” Jason quipped to Us on the red carpet, noting he’s already met Lala Kentand Olivia Flowers. “I’ve met Lala [and] we had a great chat.”
Jason also kissed The Real Housewives of Dubai’s Caroline Brooks “on the lips,” which she dutifully told Us.
While Jason previously admitted that he wanted to meet Lindsay Hubbard, she knows he’s a hot commodity around the convention hall. “I mean, yeah, but everyone else does too!” Lindsay told Us of wanting to meet Jason. “And I’m not trying to compete for Captain Jason. If he wants me, he knows where to find me.”
RHONY star Brynn Whitfield also wants to shoot her shot down under. “That captain dude’s cute,” she told Us. “So I’ll slide into his DMs and I’m going to be like, ‘I can’t swim. Help me.’ Men love a damsel in distress.”
“You want to be friends with Rachel [and] Margaret [Josephs], I don’t care. If they try to make up some cockamamie s–t, I’m not doing it,” Teresa quipped in the clip. “If she wants to make up, we make up. If she [doesn’t] want to make up, it’s a done deal, because I don’t need friends like that.”
The clip later revealed that Teresa had accused Rachel’s husband, John Fuda, of being a drug dealer after hearing the rumor from one of his exes.
“Stop trying to hit me,” John shouted at Teresa. “F–k, I’m over it. You’re full of s–t. You know what, [you are a] has-been.”
After BravoCon attendees watched John’s expletive-filled rant, they started booing his actions and chanted, “Giudice.”
Kyle Gets Emotional
Kyle Richards choked up while discussing her and her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky’s separation during The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast panel on Sunday. “We’re just trying to figure it out. We know that we love each other and —” she told moderator Zuri Hall before bursting into tears. Fans showed their support for Kyle by chanting her name.
After taking a moment to collect herself, Kyle continued: “Well, I just want to say that a lot of people think, you know, ‘What are you doing? Just pull it together and fix everything.’ Obviously, that’s what I want. This was not my idea of my fairy tale, clearly.”
She concluded the discussion by thanking fans for their ongoing “support.”
“We have a lot of things that we haven’t figured out, and it’s daunting,” she shared on Saturday. “It’s just every day. It’s taking up so much of my time when I could be doing other thing and working towards a healthier, better life, and instead I’m still dealing with this, unfortunately.”

A Charming Cast Return
Southern Charm’s Craig Conoverseemingly confirmed that Kathryn Dennis will appear in the show’s upcoming ninth season after announcing her exit from the show after season 8. “We love Kathryn,” he told Deadline on Sunday. “Kathryn is an integral part of this show. Shep [Rose] and I actually filmed with her this year. I don’t think it was supposed to happen but we did it, and I think they did it as a favor to us because we love her so much. I hope we get to see it — we probably won’t.”
Craig went on to add that he would “love” for Kathryn to return to the series. “I think the door is always open,” he told the outlet. “I think she’s working on herself and has a lot of work that she has to do before she comes back but I hope she’s doing well.”
