According to a source familiar with the production, fans can expect to see familiar faces back for another round of drama and glamour. Gizelle Bryant, Karen Huger, Wendy Osefo, Ashley Darby, and Tia Glover are all set to reappear. However, whether they will maintain their full-time status remains uncertain, as the source mentioned they’re all currently “auditioning to hold a champagne flute.”
Stacey Rausch is confirmed to return as well, with reports suggesting she has the most secure position among the cast members vying for a full-time role.
The insider also revealed that Robyn Dixon will be back and is similarly in the running for a champagne flute. Adding to the intrigue, a new face is expected to join the lineup, promising fresh dynamics for the new season.
“Robyn Dixon has also made the cut and is back to auditioning for a flute,” they continued. “There is also a new girl in the mix.”
“Regardless of who pans out to be full-time and who becomes ‘friend of’ the Housewives,’ all of the aforementioned women will be a part of season 11,” they confirmed.
“As far as Monique Samuels goes, nothing has been decided thus far in terms of if she will be a part of season 11 or not,” they added.
The source also confirmed Keiarna Stewart and Angel Massie will not be a part of the next season of RHOP, insisting that’s “the word on the street.”

Robyn has not been a part of the show since season 8.
In 2024, she announced her exit from the franchise on her Reasonably Shady podcast.
“Yes, I will not be returning for season 9 of The Real Housewives of Potomac,” Robyn shared at the time. “It’s reality. The network did not invite me back. I was fired, for lack of better words. I will not sugarcoat the situation and say, ‘Ooh I am walking away and this is a break’ or anything like this. This is a network decision.”
She added; “I’m okay with it because nothing lasts forever. I’ve had a very long run on the show, and I just really appreciate that time and the opportunity that I had on the show.”
Robyn, who was one of the original cast members of the show when it premiered in 2016, went on to thank fans who had “watched us from day 1.”
“I do want to especially thank all of the fans and viewers who have supported me, showed love to me,” she elaborated. “Whether you directly sent me love or you prayed for me or you have positive thoughts around me, I appreciate you. And I hope I inspired you the viewers, the fans, to live your life authentically. To not feel pressure to change for anyone, or impress people, and just to be yourself.”
While news of her departure had come out before she addressed it, Robyn insisted she wanted to “speak my own business, my own life, my own news, my own life, my own news, and I wanted to share it out of my own mouth when the time was appropriate.”
“And I felt like the appropriate time would be once season 8 of The Real Housewives of Potomac was finished airing, which it is. now finished airing; the last reunion episode just went off last night,” she said. “And I wanted to respect the network and respect the show and wait until the season ended, which I think makes sense.”
