‘The Real‘ seemed as if it was on its last leg with the departures of Amanda Seales and Tamera Mowry when both announced they would not be returning for the upcoming new season.
Now, the new official co-host has been announced and its actress/reality star Garcelle Beauvais.
via Variety:
Beauvais is joining the syndicated talk show, following the departure of Tamera Mowry-Housley, who announced earlier this summer that she had decided to exit the show after six seasons.
The seventh season of “The Real” kicks off on Sept. 21. The panel will feature Beauvais, Loni Love, Jeannie Mai and Adrienne Houghton.
“I am thrilled to be joining the dynamic, bold and diverse women on the award-winning talk show ‘The Real,’” Beauvais said. “My love for pop culture and news, blended with my natural gift of gab, has always made me gravitate towards a talk show environment. It’s also exciting that it’s happening right after my amazing time joining ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.’”
Beauvais became the first Black cast member on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” when she joined the Bravo show in 2020. The actress and model is perhaps best known for her stints on “The Jamie Foxx Show” and “NYPD Blue.” Recently, she was in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” and the CBS All Access series “Tell Me a Story.” She will appear in the upcoming sequel “Coming 2 America,” after appearing in the original 1988 film with Eddie Murphy.
