Bravo:

Who is RHOP Season 9's new cast member, Stacey Rusch?

The press release notes that Stacey "has entered the Potomac chat and she’s causing lots of chatter. She’s a former QVC host and mother of an 8-year-old daughter, who, after 16 years of marriage, is divorcing her husband. As she enters this new phase in her life, she is struggling with the decision to date again and navigating a romantic relationship with her best friend, who is choosing celibacy over intimacy."

@DREAMON  Thank you for the summary of Stacy's role in the upcoming Real Housewives show.  I'm assuming that the celibate friend who she is dating is TJ, right? That will be interesting- how would that relationship work? I don't think that I could have a celibate boyfriend.

Gosh oh gee, they slather on way too much makeup on those women.

If I hadn't recognized the dress in the first photo, I wouldn't have been able to pick her out in the group shot!

She's beautiful with much less makeup.  But I know they have to "glam up" those women.

Never watched those shows.  If I remember, I may try the very first episode just to see Stacey.

I liked Stacey on qvc. Just do not know why she would do a housewife show where her talent could have gone other places. Hope she doesn't become some crass, nasty, character like most of these bravo queens.  As far as her and TJ?  Interesting 🤔

I bet that Bravo-NBC Universal money is a lot more gratifying than Qurate novice host money.  Just my interpretation.

@SportyShorty07 ,

I assume it is TJ...Bravo left the name out to make it dramatic....as usual.

I have never watched this franchise but will give it a try.

@DREAMON   I think its TJ too- I remember him talking on a Watch and Win QVC  livestream about religion and how its hard for him to date because women find out how religious he is.  I'll definitely watch this season so that I can see this Stacy and TJ storyline play out.

I won't be watching the show, but I do applaud T.J. for choosing celibacy, and I'm sure the network made both of them offers they could NOT refuse.

I imagine her hours are more stable & no working late nights. I’m sorry she divorced as she seemed so happy. Maybe she asked for earlier hours & QVC couldn’t accommodate her request. Probably a lot more money too. I really liked her & she looked good in everything. I haven’t seen Vanessa; maybe she left on maternity leave?

@San Antonio Gal   I guess I'm a bit surprised, but not 100% surprised. Wasn't a fan of TJ's (he was very hyper). I'm disappointed in Stacey. She struck me as a woman of conviction on the Q. Looks like she increased her bra size after she left.
