Rachel Zoe said she planned to keep things simple heading into RHOBH Season 16: stay open, expect the unexpected and “wing it.”
The fashion designer prepared for her second season on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills as Leah Remini and Tracy Tutor joined the cast. Rachel said she welcomed the new additions and hoped the expanded group would bring more fun.
Rachel Zoe says she plans to “wing it” as Leah Remini and Tracy Tutor join the cast
Bravo confirmed in August that Remini and Million Dollar Listing alum Tutor would join RHOBH Season 16.
As per Us Rachel reacted positively to the additions and said she had no problem working with new personalities.
“I’m all for it,” Rachel said. “I mean, it’s just about the more the merrier. [I] love new people and you know, hopefully we can laugh a lot.”
The upcoming season was expected to feature Rachel alongside Kyle Richards, Bozoma Saint John-Watson, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, Sutton Stracke, Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly.
Rather than create a detailed strategy for filming, Rachel Zoe said she preferred to remain flexible.
“I’m kind of ready for anything,” she explained. “I can only control what I do, right? Not what anybody else does or says.”
That mindset became her main approach to reality television.
“So I think it’s just like, close your eyes and jump kind of thing,” Rachel added.
When asked whether she had set any specific goals before returning to RHOBH, Rachel admitted she had not.
“I just wing everything that I do, pretty much,” she said with a laugh. “Especially this. I mean, it’s kind of hard to preemptively do anything with reality.”
Outside the show, Rachel also focused on health awareness through a partnership with Aflac. She helped promote a limited-edition jacket featuring a QR code that directed users to a cancer screening assessment.
The reality star said health had become an important priority, especially after seeing cancer affect people close to her.
As she moved into another year of her life, Rachel said she felt happier and freer than she had in a long time.
For Rachel Zoe RHOBH Season 16, that attitude appeared to shape her plan: avoid overthinking, stay adaptable and handle each moment as it came.
