'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' scoop: Sylvester Stallone's wife and Eddie Cibrian's ex in talks to join cast -- EXCLUSIVE

Brandi-JenniferImage Credit: (L-R): Steven Lawton/FilmMagic; Denise Truscello/WAndy Cohen might have to add another couch to the set of next season’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion — the network is apparently in talks with several other ladies about potentially joining the show’s buzzy cast. Specifically, EW has learned that both Eddie Cibrian’s ex Brandi Glanville (yes, the one who was famously spurned by Cibrian for his now-fiancé, country singer LeAnn Rimes) and Sylvester Stallone’s wife, Jennifer Flavin (above, right), have been in discussions with Bravo about appearing on the snake pit of a show when it returns for a second season. The buzz is that Stallone isn’t pleased with his wife entertaining the idea, likely because of his high profile. (Considering everything that happened with Kelsey Grammer’s wife, Camille, being on the show, maybe that’s not such a crazy idea from Sly?) Officially, Bravo has no comment on the casting rumors, and the network has yet to officially greenlight a second season. But considering that the series regularly drew 3 to 4 million viewers for every episode and had one of the most enrapturing two-part reunions in the franchise’s history, another season seems all but a sure thing.

    Stallone’s high profile This isn’t 1976.

    • Jethro

      Why are more H/W needed? How many do they need? I see when NY returns in 2 weeks, there will now be 7. Why the need to add more housewives?

      • Val

        The return for NY Housewives has been postponed. Miami is going to premiere instead.

      • Marie

        Yeah…every time I turn on Bravo, there’s an ad for a new RH. It’s only a matter of time before the RH of Bravo Executives premieres and Brave will change it’s name to the Real Housewives channel.

      • Brit

        I hope there isn’t another DC season…that was sooo boring.

    • Josh M

      How many $100 million movies did you need last year to be “high profile?”

  • Nancy

    This must mean Kim is leaving?

    • candacetx

      I like Kim – but she doesnt need this kind of spotlight. Dump Taylor…she’s vile. Dump Kyle, it would serve her right. End Adrienne (as much as I lovey her) she’s far too grounded and normal for the drama.

      • Rachel

        That’s what I thought – Adrienne was my favorite, but she really didn’t get much play this season because she’s SANE.

      • JP

        I agree about Adrienne. She could have been the most vile of the bunch, but turns out she’s a hard worker and a caring human being. She needs off the show. I want better for her.

    • Windygirl

      Kim is boring. So is duck lips Taylor. I HATE it when they plump their lips so much, it looks awful

      • burgerdroid

        they’ll keep taylor to replace camille who is supposedly not returning. taylor is actually 100 x’s more vile than camille, which should be impossible but apparently isnt.

      • Rochelle McGowan

        Duck lips! It amazes me that Teylor actually thinks she looks good. Every time she opens her mouth I expect to hear her quack. That’s a hideous look. Stay away from her plastic surgeon.

  • Simon

    I am guessing no Kim then door season 2

  • Joseph T

    More?! Why do they need another person?! Who is not coming back??

    • Fatima

      I’d guess Camille and Kim.

      • Rochelle McGowan

        I hope Camille comes back. She’s kind of scary actually, devious may be a better description, like she’s not all there. But I like the “vile” and she does it well.

  • Buffy Freak

    I can see Sly’s wife…they’ve got to be pretty loaded. But how much money could Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife have? Half the Cibrian “fortune” isn’t exactly up in the same stratosphere as these other BH Housewives…unless she’s taken a job as one of camille’s nannies or Lisa’s new boarder.

  • Cy

    Yep, the Stallones must be loaded. Doesn’t the Mrs. have a skincare line on QVC or something? And who is gonna want to hang out with Eddie’s ex? She’s not rich or connected.

    • Ashley

      Apparently Brandi is a friend of Cedric’s. She was on E talking about how he helps out and makes a couple of bucks by watching her sons. But I agree Brandi has no money! It must be the Cedric connection hoping that it creates some tension.

      • caryn

        no! It would turn me off from the show to have any sort of attention thrown cedric’s way.

    • Brenda Barrett

      Yes, I’m sure Flavin makes a mint selling her skincare on HSN.

    • Windygirl

      Goodlordgodalmighty can’t they find any natural looking women in Beverly Hills?

  • lu

    yeah, either is trashy enough.

  • Marie

    They both look like scary, plastic dolls in the above pictures (more so Flavin), so they should fit right in with the rest of the cast.

    • really?

      Yes, your jealousy shows. While you are shacked up with a slobby accountant with a gambling problem; a 2nd mortgage and a GF on the side — these “scary, plastic dolls” are doing pretty well for themselves.

  • Butterfly

    The most gracious thing this franchise could do is not bring back Kim. Kim is emotionally fragile among other things. Kyle is a blood sucking vulture. Add another type A personality to the bunch that can stand up to Kyle. Adrianne Maloof seems like a really nice person but she is truly boring, she needs to go.

    • Windygirl

      Oooooookaaaay, Camile… I mean, “butterfly”

  • JLT

    Um. These aren’t housewives. They’re divorcees.

    • Fatima

      Except for the fact that one of them is still married.

  • PrincessBride

    Is it just me or does the dress on the blond look really painful in the chest area?

    • You Said It

      I was thinking the same thing. Perhaps that top was something Brandi could have worn before the implants (just like LeAnn)!

  • iggy

    Isn’t it time for this franchise to start winding down. We get it…there’s a whole subculture of inane, bored, rich women that are self centered, catty, and extravagant…blah..blah..blah

    • Buffy Freak

      It would be if the ratings started declining…but since they’re not, why would Bravo stop milking it?

  • Andrea

    ‘Brandi has no money’.Or so she says.Yet she can still buy herself new clothes and party in Vegas.Does she have a fancy house to?I thought she couldn’t afford to buy her own kids a ‘Happy Meal’ and had to move to a smaller place.How else would she be considered a RHOBH?She claims Eddie’s not paying her child support and we know she doesn’t have a job.However she must be getting her money somewhere.Trust me,she just as much a liar and fame***** as she makes her ex and his new fiancee out to be.If she’s really in talks to do the show,trust me she will.

    • Kelcie

      Well said!

    • Ashley

      Someone just mentioned a skin care line on QVC and I read she was getting her real estate license. Personally, I don’t Mrs. Stallone will do this…she has her husbands money and she has never really seeked fame. Unlike some other Mrs (I am talking about your Camille!)

  • Justin

    These six are perfect together. I don’t really want any new ones just yet.

    • Rochelle McGowan

      I have to agree with you Justin. I do say a prayer for Kim. I’ve personally been successful with my rehabilitation (2-1/2 years now) and I feel for her in her struggles with alcohol. I’m one of those who believes it’s a disease like any other so for Kim, I just pray.

  • ann

    It must be so easy to work at Bravo TV. You don’t have to be creative or innovative — you just have to own a map. Each season, pick a new city and put the same dumb show there. End of day, let’s go home!!

    • candacetx

      lol…

    • Rochelle McGowan

      Watched all of two episodes of D.C., Atlanta women are the WORST of all. Are the Jersey HW’s coming back? I like New York. I can’t keep up with all of them so I hope they don’t add any more. My kids HATE how wrapped up I get. LOL
