Luann de Lesseps says that the New York Housewives franchise is *"not going anywhere"* despite Bravo putting season 14 on pause. While appearing on *The Wendy Williams Show* in November, Andy Cohen confirmed that RHONY was *"on pause"* following season 13. *“We have a lot of casting happening, and we’re looking at every option,”* Andy said at the time. *“‘New York’ is not going anywhere,”* Luann told *[Page Six](https://pagesix.com/2021/12/14/luann-de-lesseps-rhony-not-going-anywhere-despite-pause/),* adding that she's being patient as the network *“[gets] casting in order”* for season 14. She admits she was initially *"disappointed"* when she heard the news about the temporary break on filming but quickly saw the silver lining. *“I got to say, I’ve been so busy with my cabaret tour and shows and getting ready that it’s kind of a blessing that we weren’t filming this fall because I really needed the time,”* she confessed. *“When I got that call, I was in St. Tropez, and they said, ‘You don’t have to be back.’ I was like, ‘Yes!’ And I stayed a little longer.”* Luann noted she has little input when it comes to casting but insists she's open to a few new apple holders joining the cast. *“The casting is not up to me, obviously. Of course, they weigh in with [me] because I’ve been around for a long time,”* she said. *“I try to go into things with no preconceived notions like I did on the ‘Ultimate Girls Trip.’ I didn’t have any expectations. I just wanted to have the full experience.”* She continued, *“I feel the same way about casting, and I’ve heard that they’ve got some great candidates. I don’t know who’s staying, who’s going, but I’m looking forward to the next season. It’s going to be a strong one.”* As for Eboni K. Williams' possible return for season 14, Luann said,* “I don’t know who’s coming and who’s not coming back. But I think we all landed in a very good place with [Eboni] at the end of the season. Even though we didn’t have the reunion, I felt like we landed and ended in a good place. I’m not opposed to having her back. Let’s see what happens.”* ## Thoughts on this all?
