Life may not be all diamonds and rosé, but many Bravolebs definitely lived it up at the glamorous book release party in honor of Dave Quinn's Not All Diamonds and Rosé: The Inside Story of the Real Housewives From the People That Lived It.

How to Watch

Tune in to WWHL on Bravo Sunday through Thursday and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo App.

The Andy Cohen-approved book (with a title that gives a nod to Lisa Vanderpump’s Season 3 The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills tagline “Life isn't all diamonds and rosé, but it should be") chronicles the history of the Real Housewives. With in-depth interviews from over 100 Housewives both past and present, the nearly 500-page book is the ultimate behind-the-scenes look into all things Real Housewives, including interviews with cast members, producers, executives, and more.

The Cirque du Soleil-themed party, held at Capitale in New York City on October 19, featured the who's who of Real Housewives: Eboni K. Williams, Melissa Gorga, Luann de Lesseps, Leah McSweeney, Dorinda Medley, Jennifer Aydin, Candiace Dillard Bassett, Mary Schmidt Amons, Margaret Josephs, Jackie Goldschneider, Ramona Singer, and Dolores Catania, among others.

"So proud of you," wrote Dorinda in the caption of her Instagram post, standing next to Quinn.

The extravagant bash featured live music, acrobats on hoops with chandeliers, and lots of dancing.

Andy was also there to celebrate, and recently weighed in on the entertainment journalist and author's book on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.

"It's very dishy," Andy said in the Clubhouse while discussing the book. He also said in a separate statement, "I know readers will be surprised, entertained, and even shocked at what’s in store."

Dave Quinn spoke about the book with E! News in a recent interview, talking about the hundreds of interviews with the Housewives from Atlanta, Beverly Hills, Dallas, DC, Miami, New York, New Jersey, Orange County, and Potomac who spilled all the tea (and rosé) leading to some eye-opening, never-before-told stories. “The conversations were incredible,” Quinn said.
