So why would I call myself a ‘Housewife?’ Just saying ‘former,’ it’s not a big deal.”* She continued, *“I’m on the ‘Ultimate Girls Trip’ [Season 3], and I’ll be at BravoCon, and I can’t wait to see everybody there.”.* Back in May, Leah revealed that she assumes she's *"not coming back"* to the *Real Housewives of New York *for the upcoming reboot. *“I think I’m not coming back,”* she admitted on the “We Should Talk” podcast with Gibson Johns. *“It’s just the better way to think about it. I mean, look, I have to see if they offer me to go back, I have to wait to see who’s on it and which show it is, and whatever … you know I can’t think the what if.”* *“I would be like bummed, just because [my] second [season] was just not fun, you know what I mean. I mean, maybe the show’s not supposed to be fun, though, I don’t know,”* Leah continued. *“I wanna have fun on my last season, but yeah, I just think, OK, I’m not going back.”* In March, Bravo announced they were rebooting the New York Housewives franchise and pressing pause on season 14 for 2022. Bravo noted they are *"searching for a diverse group of friends who best reflect one of the most multicultural cities in America."* ## Thoughts on Leah McSweeney?
