Bravo is introducing fans to the next generation of reality TV stars with their new show, Next Gen NYC. The series features adult children of famous mothers, many of whom have grown up in the spotlight and have previously appeared in the Real Housewives franchise. But is a new familiar face joining the show?

Fans are convinced that The Real Housewives of Orange County‘s Shannon Storms Beador’s daughter, will be part of the show. Beador is the mother of three daughters, but it is her eldest daughter, Sophie, who fans are curious about, and they’re wondering whether she will make an appearance on the show. The rumors began with an Instagram post made on July 3, which featured Sophie’s fresh hair.

Why Do Fans Think Sophie Beador Is Joining ‘Next Gen NYC?’

Hair stylist Julius Michael made the post in question. It was not the image, which showed off Sophie’s hair, but the caption that grabbed attention. “The Next Generation is (fire emoji) @sophiebeador All grown up and becoming the #queen she is,” he wrote. He also added several hashtags, including @bravotv and #NextGen. Michael concluded the caption by sending a shoutout to Beador. He wrote, “You did good @shannonbeador #sophiebeador is an amazing girl!!”

Fans reacted to the Instagram post, flooding the comments with messages about Sophie’s potential inclusion in Next Gen NYC, and many people are interested in seeing more of her. “Would love to see her added to the show!” a fan shared. “Omg how was she not included on the show!” a fan stated. Other reactions include, “Next gen NYC???,” “This is who should be on next gen,” and “Next Gen?!?!”

Beador also responded to the photo, writing, “Beautiful,” followed by a red heart emoji. Other people have also remarked on Sophie’s beauty. “She has grown up so fast, and she’s absolutely beautiful!” a fan wrote. “Sophie is a legend like her mama,” another shared.

Sophie is no stranger to fame, and her mom has given a glimpse into their bond before, including with sweet posts on Instagram. So she’s likely accustomed to the attention and interest in her life. But is there any weight to these rumors? Is Michael just a fan of the show?

It would not be a bad time for Sophie to join Next Gen NYC, as she has recently graduated from Baylor University and moved to New York City. But so far, there has been no indication that Sophie has any interest in joining the cast.

Who Is Included In The Cast Of ‘Next Gen NYC?’

The cast of Next Gen NYC currently includes Gia Giudice, Riley Burruss, and Ariana Biermann. Other stars are Ava Dash, Emira D’Spain, Shai Fruchter, Brooks Marks, Georgia McCann, Hudson McLeroy, and Charlie Zakkour.

The synopsis for Next Gen NYC, per BravoTV, reveals how the series “follows a tangled web of friends raised in the spotlight — or at least close enough for good lighting — as they stumble into adulthood one brunch, breakup, and spontaneous decision at a time. Whether stepping out of their parents’ shadows or creating their own legacies from scratch, these twentysomethings are determined to conquer Manhattan — if they can figure out how to adult first.”

Real Housewives alums Adrienne Maloof and Cynthia Bailey have also hinted that their children may be on a spin-off version of the show based in Los Angeles. “They’re coming to us to want to do this show, that show about the next generation like my kids,” Maloof said on an episode of SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live on June 26, Us Weekly reports.

Bailey also weighed in on her daughter’s decision. “I don’t know what Noelle wants to do yet. It’s totally her decision,” she said. “It’s her choice. She’s been watching it. I’ve just been like, ‘Keep watching it and see how you feel about it.'”
