Shiva Safai Reveals The Real Reason Why She Turned Down RHOBH!

Shiva Safai, who is currently starring on E!'s Second Wives Club reveals that she turned down the chance to be an official cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Safai, who made numerous appearances with her fiance, Mohamed Hadid, over the years, says she turned down the offor to avoid being in the middle of Yolanda Hadid and Lisa Vanderpump's intense drama.

“I did go back and forth a few times, debating whether it would be the right fit,” she told Entertainment Tonight. “I just thought between Lisa Vanderpump and Mohamed's ex-wife, Yolanda, I wouldn't be necessarily in a good place.”



In case you need a refresher, Yolanda and Lisa got into a major fight during season six of the Bravo hit reality show with LVP claiming Mohamed had told her that his kids with Yolanda, Bella and Anwar, were completely healthy. That came after Yolanda and the children had come forward with their Lyme disease diagnoses. Mohamed later denied Lisa’s statement.

“You know, I don't want to stir any drama or go against either one of them,” Shiva adds. “So, it just didn't feel right.”

“Personally, it would've been better if I lived under a rock,” she jokes.

Shiva says she chose to sign on to Second Wives Club instead because it just “felt right.”
