Bershan Shaw Is Joining The Real Housewives Of New York City For Season 13!

Bershan Shaw is joining the cast of The Real Housewives of New York City for the show's upcoming thirteenth season, according to Us Weekly. 

While Bravo has yet to confirm Shaw's addition to the series, the publication claims that she will join the series along with returning cast members Leah McSweeney, Luann de Lesseps, Ramona Singer, and Sonja Morgan.

Another source also confirms that Shaw is indeed joining RHONY. “Bershan Shaw will be filming for ‘RHONY’ when the ladies begin filming,” a source close to production told HollywoodLife. 

Apparently, Shaw is friends with McSweeney, whom the source claims she is the person who brought Bershan to the show.

“[Bershan] was actually suggested to producers by Leah and Leah is so excited it worked out as all of the ladies have been pretty vocal at suggesting people to join the cast,” the source reveals. “She’s good friends with Leah and also Sonja [Morgan], but she knows all of the ladies and has for years. She’s really outgoing, outspoken and fun and is very excited to do the show,” the source continued.

“It’s too early to tell if she’ll be full-time or a friend, but it sounds like she will be filming to be more of a full-time wife,” the source told HollywoodLife. 

Bershan is a two-time breast cancer survivor and is a business coach, actress, and motivational speaker. She would be the first Black cast member on RHONY.
