Ayda Field Not Joining RHOBH Season 2

Who knows what to expect from the next season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but don’t expect to see Ayda Field. Despite months of rumors that the actress wife of Brit pop star Robbie Williams was being recruited to join the cast of the Bravo reality hit, a rep for Ayda tells Wetpaint, “She is not on the show. I haven’t heard anything.”

It makes more sense that Ayda isn’t being considered now that Brandi Glanville, the ex-wife of actor Eddie Cibrian, has signed on. We can’t see Bravo adding more than one new Housewife on this show given how hugely successful the original cast has been!

Who's The New Castmember On The RHOBH?

There have been heaps of will-they or won't-they gossip swirling around the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and exactly which nipped and tucked castmembers will return. But what's for real, here?

Team Truth can officially confirm that Camille Grammer has signed on the dotted line to return for season two and that Bravo is zeroing in on a new castmember.

"There's two contenders to join the cast," a source close to production tells us. "It is between Faye Resnick and Ayda Field. If I were to put money on it, I would say Ayda will be the new castmember."

Field, a pretty blonde soap actress with less plastic surgery (apparently) than the rest of the current cast, is married to pop star Robbie Williams. Hmmm, sounds like both spouses could use the show to give their careers a much needed boost?

A rep for Field would only confirm, "We've been approached."

And, of course, those who watched the first season of RHOBH will remember Kyle Richard's BFF Resnick, whom Camille Grammer famously referred to as "the morally corrupt Faye Resnick," in reference to her Playboy spread following the O.J. Simpson trial.

"Faye is shooting for the show already because she is an actual friend of the cast," explains the insider. "It is still unclear if Faye will remain a friend or become a central character on the show."

But Bravo had better figure it out fast, because the source tells us that the show started officially shooting on Tuesday!

Ayda Field Joining Beverly Hills Housewives?

According to a source close to casting for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Robbie Williams' 31-year-old wife, Ayda Field, was recently approached to join the cast of the Bravo reality series.

Our source tells us that approximately two weeks ago, the British pop singer's wife got a call about being on the show. While Field hasn't signed anything yet, it's "very likely" she could be the next addition to the television hit, which was made up of Taylor Armstrong, Adrienne Maloof, Lisa Vanderpump, Kim and Kyle Richards and Kelsey Grammer's ex-wife of 13 years, Camille Grammer (nee Donatacci), during season one.

And Ayda, who has lived in Mulholland Estates in LA since she wed Williams last August, has the goods to back it up. Her hubby, the best-selling British solo artist in the UK, is estimated to have a net worth of anywhere between $120 and $140M.

But would the American actress mesh well with Camille, a former Playboy actress and mother of two, who was named the "Most Hated Housewife" by Life & Style magazine?

She may not have to: It is still unknown whether the 42-year-old will be returning for a second season, although the option has not been ruled out for the divorcee.

While her fate hangs in the wings, other housewives are grasping onto theirs. Lisa Vanderpump, who lunched with Field at Villa Blanca in January, has found her own way to knock out the competition. The insider says the casting team was interested in finding a "younger blond" to add to the bevy of Beverly Hills beauties, and the sharp-tongued Brit and oldest of the cast at 50, "wasn't too thrilled."

To secure her spot, Vanderpump attempted to deter those in her zip code interested in auditioning by "telling everyone" within earshot what a "bad experience" she had filming season one.

If Ayda got word, it doesn't sound like she fell for it. The svelte stunner has gone as far as discussing Robbie's potential role on the show with Bravo. Williams, a recovered alcoholic, would have "about the same air-time that Kelsey Grammer did in season one," and would not be a focal point — only showing up for musical appearances and family occasions.
