Real Housewives of New York: New Housewife… Carol Radziwill???

I think all Carolyn Fans have read Carol Radziwill's book "What Remains."  In the book she seemed so shy and very private like Carolyn.  I was surprised to find out she may be on the show Real Housewives of New York TV show. If this turns out to be true, I would watch the show to get know her better because she was a loyal and very close friend of Carolyn and John. 

If she decides to do the show, I say go for it!  She deserves to do whatever makes her happy.  Plus, we might get to hear her talk about her past.  Good for her and I hope she is enjoying life to the fullest!

I have posted a couple of pictures of the Radziwill's, Carolyn, and below that the article with the link  to the source.  Enjoy!




A Jackie O Relative Joins The Cast Of ‘Real Housewives Of New York’ Along With 2 Other New Faces!
Real Housewives of New York Cast

Meet the three new women of ‘RHONY’: author Carole Radziwill, fashion designer Heather Thomson and Wall Street wife Aviva Drescher! Ramona Singer tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively that they begin filming on Oct. 3!

It’s hard to believe that we won’t be seeing Jill Zarin, Alex McCord, Cindy Barshop or Kelly Bensimon returning to The Real Housewives of New York City for season five, but Bravo made the decision to let them go. And it seems that Bravo’s already hired their replacements! Bravo has brought aboard three new women — Carole Radziwill, a distant relative of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, fashion designer Heather Thomson and Wall Street wife Aviva Drescher — sources tell the NY Daily News! Can these women fill the shoes of the stars that were let go?
Carole is related to Jackie O through her late husband Anthony Radziwill. Anthony’s mother Lee Radziwill is Jackie’s little sister. Anthony sadly passed away from cancer in 1999. Carole is a former ABC producer and now a bestselling author, but has no children. According to the sources, Carole will add to the drama of the housewives as the single gal in the group. Sounds like Sonja Morgan has a new partying buddy!
Heather is married and has two children. She’s fashion designer of Yummie Tummie shapewear line.
Aviva’s married to well-off Reid Drescher, founder of Spencer Clarke Securities & Investment Banking. The couple have three children. Producers were looking to find a woman who would represent the finance and Wall Street crowds, says a source. Aviva seems perfect for the role!
Aviva and Heather have both socialized with RHONY cast members in the past – but poor Carole has “never met any of the women,” reveals an insider.
It will be very interesting to see what roles these women take on in season five. Will Sonja buddy up with Carole and Aviva because they’re blonde? Will Ramona Singer start quarrels with Heather over business ideas? And who will be Countess LuAnn de Lesseps best friend now that Jill and Kelly are gone? Only time will tell.
Ramona told HollywoodLife.com exclusively that filming is set to begin on Oct. 3. Hopefully Bravo’s recasting will do the show justice!

That does seem OOC for Carol. However, a little over a week ago, I was in NYC & while hubby was in meetings, I popped over to TriBeCa and checked out John and Carolyn's building.
