Filming for the second season of The Real Housewives of Jersey reportedly began over the weekend, according to the Jersey Evening Post.
The outlet reports that some Islanders claimed to have seen scenes being shot in the Valley Adventure Centre.
Earlier this month, sources revealed that the series will be adding new faces to the cast as the network allegedly wants to add more diversity, reported the Instagram page, Everything Housewives.
The page captioned the post with, “#rhojersey Alleged Cast Updates for Season 2! Swipe for information!”
On the third page of the post, the Instagram fan account broke it down as to who is allegedly demoted and much more.
“According to an insider at MonkeyNBC (production company of rhojersey) Jane [Rayner] and Hedi [Green] will not be returning to the show as full-time cast members.”
“Apparently, Hedi has been demoted to a friend of the show,” the insider continued.” “Also! Due to complaints of the lack of diversity, producers are apparently trying to look towards creating a more diverse cast.”
The source added, “It is also believed production for the show may start in May and will probably air by the start of next year.”
The series became a big hit in the UK. The reality series has streamed almost 3 million times on the ITV Hub, ITV News reported back in January 2021.
