'The Real Housewives of New York City' news update: Jules Wainstein confirms leaving the show
Bravo's reality TV show "The Real Housewives of New York City" is going to be missing one cast member when it returns to the small screen soon for its ninth season.
According to Bravo, Jules Wainstein confirmed days after the season 8 reunion that she will no longer come back to the show. She has only been around for s season so fans who have followed her won't get the chance to get to know her even more. But her reason for departing the show so early seems reasonable enough.
She said that while she learned a lot about herself and the other cast members, and felt that the show made her "capable," the struggle she is currently undergoing is holding her back from moving forward with the reality series.
The reality show actress is referring to her ongoing divorce with husband Michael. During the show, reports said that it was revealed that Michael had been cheating on her with someone she knew. The two have been married for eight years but it is destined to end after Wainstein announced back in June that they will be separating.
"Listen, I'm going through the worst time in my life, but on the other hand, life isn't over and even though I'm 35, it could be the beginning," said Wainstein to Bravo.
At present, Wainstein just wants to focus on what really matters to her. This includes her family, her children and her business, Modern Alkeme. Wainstein has two kids, 5-year-old Jagger and 2-year-old Rio. Because of their young ages, she just wants to make sure that she can protect them especially with what's currently going on in their household.
Fans will still see Wainstein around promoting her business. The difference is that she will no longer be hustling with a cameraman documenting her every move.
