Ramona Singer Not Attending BravoCon After Using a Racial Slur in Text Exchange

Ramona Singer, late of Bravo‘s “The Real Housewives of New York City,” who will soon be seen on Peacock’s “Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: RHONY Legacy,” will no longer be attending BravoCon as of Tuesday afternoon — after she used a racial slur in a text exchange with a Pvnew reporter.

The reporter was asking Singer about an allegation made in Vanity Fair’s recent investigative story about Bravo and “The Real Housewives” franchise —an assertion that Singer had used the N-word in front of a “RHONY” crew member, which caused an investigation. In the text exchange with Pvnew, screenshotted in the story, Singer denied she’d said the N-word, but then abbreviated it.

As a result, according to a source, Singer will no longer be attending this weekend’s BravoCon, the three-day event in Las Vegas that will run from Nov. 3-5. Her name has already been removed from the BravoCon app.

In November 2021, PvNew also reported that Singer had been investigated for making racist remarks during the filming of Season 13 of “RHONY,” which featured Eboni K. Williams as the show’s first Black cast member. That season turned out to be so toxic and unpleasant, and drew such poor ratings, that Bravo decided to split “The Real Housewives of New York City” into two different shows, one with an entirely new cast that premiered over the summer, and was well received, the other into a “Legacy” series with cast members from the show’s 13 previous seasons.

Though known to be a magnet for controversy, and a key player in ruining “RHONY,” Singer was nevertheless selected to be among the “Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: RHONY Legacy” cast, along with Luann de Lesseps, Dorinda Medley, Sonja Morgan, Kelly Killoren Bensimon and Kristen Taekman.

Doing “Legacy” as a shorter “Ultimate Girls Trip” instead of an entire season was a solution born out of difficult financial negotiations with previous “RHONY” cast members — including Jill Zarin, who won’t appear on the series, after having spoken publicly about wanting more money in order to do so. “Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: RHONY Legacy” will premiere in December, though the exact date hasn’t been announced yet.

BravoCon hasn’t even begun yet, but the drama is here already.
