The Real Housewives of New Jersey is officially returning in December, with Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga and Dolores Catania reclaiming their spots alongside five new Housewives.
Bravo announced the season 15 cast following a lengthy hiatus that began after the show’s August 2024 finale.
Joining the returning stars are Malvina Blloshmi, Xio Cammarota, Juliette Collazo, Deeba Patel and Natia Rufolo. Vanessa Barrera will also appear as a friend of the cast.
The shakeup comes after season 14 ended without a reunion amid bitter disagreements between the women, including Teresa and Melissa’s longstanding family feud. However, the sisters-in-law reconciled at BravoCon 2025, opening the door for a different dynamic when cameras resumed rolling.
Teresa, who has also repaired her relationship with brother Joe Gorga, is embracing a more peaceful existence with husband Luis “Louie” Ruelas while navigating life with her four daughters.
Meanwhile, Melissa is preparing for an empty nest and expanding her Let’s Sprinkle cookie business. Dolores has her own milestones ahead, including wedding plans with fiancé Paulie and her children’s engagements.
The newcomers bring plenty of entrepreneurial experience, from beauty businesses and med spas to cocktail mixers and real estate-related ventures.
Among them is Juliette, who could face personal challenges involving her sister, fellow newcomer Xio.
The upcoming season marks the franchise’s first new episodes in more than two years.
