Diana Jenkins Says She Will Not Return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Diana Jenkins joined the RHOBH cast in Season 12 and is stepping away to "focus on [her] pregnancy."
Diana Jenkins says she will not be returning to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Diana joined RHOBH in Season 12 and she confirmed her exit after one season on the show in a statement to PEOPLE on Monday, January 9.
"As many of you know, Asher and I are expecting our second child later this year. You also know that due to many factors, this pregnancy is considered high risk and I am on doctor-advised bed rest. To that end, I am not able to devote myself fully to filming the next season of [The] Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," Jenkins wrote in a statement. "I would like to thank Bravo and Evolution for allowing me to focus on my pregnancy, and for their support and understanding. I promise to continue sharing my fertility journey with you."
Prior to confirming her departure from RHOBH, Diana revealed that she is expecting her second child with her husband, Asher Monroe. She shared the news in mid-December, telling a fan on Instagram, “Long way to go, but thank you.”
Diana, whose Season 12 tagline was “The only thing better than having it all is having even more,” shared with fans during Season 12 her home life as well as her love for luxury, and she also faced some drama and tensions within the RHOBH group.
The news of Diana's exit comes just days after it was confirmed that Lisa Rinna was stepping away from RHOBH after eight seasons on the show. “This is the longest job I have held in my 35-year career and I am grateful to everyone at Bravo and all those involved in the series,” Lisa said in a statement last week. “It has been a fun eight-year run and I am excited for what is to come!”
