The show must go on, and E! just found a way to save theirReal Housewives of New Yorkspinoff,The Golden Life. Earlier this week, they firedJill Zarinfor her unhinged rant aboutBad Bunny, but there's another Bravo legend coming on board. They've tappedDorinda Medleyto save the day. Grab a martini glass, and get ready for some chaos. She's startin'.
Dorinda Medley joins the cast of E! series The Golden Life
We know you've been following this story.Jill screwed upher big return to TV by sharing a controversial video on Super Bowl Sunday,bashing Bad Bunny's halftime performance. She didn't like all the Spanish, and she thought the lack of white people made the show feel like a "political statement."
Following a massive wave of backlash,E! fired Jillfrom the upcoming show before cameras ever started rolling. That move left some fans wondering if the show would even continue—especially since a racism scandal is what tanked RHONY in the first place.
According toPage Six, the show is still moving forward, and Dorinda has signed on the dotted line. BetweenThe Traitors, the E! Series, and her still-in-developmentBluestone Manor show, it's safe to say Dorinda is no longer on pause.
What's interesting is that Dorinda wasn't necessarily hired at the last minute to replace Jill. Their sources suggest that she was always involved in the show, but the network wanted to reveal it closer to the premiere date. It was supposed to be a surprise, but now, the cat's out of the bag.

Dorinda will join Sonja Morgan, Luann de Lesseps, Ramona Singer, and Kelly Bensimon in the upcoming RHONY spinoff. The cameras will follow the RHONY ladies as they navigate their post-Bravo lives in Palm Beach, Florida. Although Dorinda doesn't live in Florida like the rest of the cast, they'll make it work somehow.
The show's logline teased: "Bound by decades of shared history, fallouts, and friendship, this fan-favorite group of New Yorkers are starting fresh together in the Sunshine State."
The Real Housewives of New Yorkis streaming on Peacock while we wait for more news on The Golden Life.
