‘The Real Housewives of Potomac’ had a whirlwind season 7 full of drama, and now as season 8 is set to begin production in a matter of weeks, so as expected, rumors are rolling in about casting.
Following the explosive revelations that Robyn Dixon failed to reveal the truth about an alleged cheating scandal between her now husband, Juan Dixon, and a mystery woman prior to season 7 it was reported that Robyn was fired by Andy Cohen.
While we know that the firing rumor is not true, the two did sit down for a separate one on one right after the RHOP season 7 reunion filmed to dish on her lack of transparency regarding the situation.
Well, now following that sit-down and as the ladies are gearing up to go into production for season 8, It’s been reported that OG, Robyn Dixon is on the chopping block along with former OG/now friend of the show, Charrisse Jackson Jordan ahead of season 8.
The source claims to have direct knowledge of the production and says that while contracts have not gone out, producers are looking to move forward without both ladies.

Note: to be clear, I only report information that I have been told from a reliable source.
If this were to be made up — I would’ve put Dr. Wendy side by side with Robyn because her role on the show is to fill in gaps in the episodes with scenes of her boring commentary. pic.twitter.com/FinKe1zsDN

While we wait to see if that pans out to be true, former OG housewife, Katie Rost is coming out and letting it be known that she wants her job back on the wildly-popular show.
Katie took to Twitter this week to share a series of tweets revealing that she has apologized to Andy Cohen for some past drama after she was let go from the show, and says she’s ready to work and is available if the new season is still casting.
Things between Rost and Cohen took a turn when the mom of three lashed out at the “Watch What Happens Live” host for not inviting her to the show’s Season 4 reunion in 2019.
“Everyone knows I should be on that couch,” she wrote in a now-deleted Instagram post at the time. “You want to exploit my image and life and not give me my time to shine?”
Three years later, Rost issued an apology to Cohen for “statements I made that weren’t cool in the past.”
She also made her initial plea for her job back, saying, “I do want a job. And I swear I will totally behave. I’m also sorry for my temper tantrums. I feel no thirst. I just want to work.”
Rost’s latest plea to return to the hit Bravo show comes more than two weeks after she revealed that she was now working a minimum-wage job at Bethesda Co-op, an organic market in Cabin John, Md., after completing rehab.
“Jesus Christ, I started working, like a real job. I just got off of an 8 hour shift working minimum wage,” she wrote on Instagram on Feb. 3.
She also shared that she recently relapsed, but was “starting over: day 1.”

Get into Katie’s latest tweets.
I’ve asked Andy Cohen to bring me back, apologized, gone to shul and said sorry. All that stuff. Radio silence. I have a lot going on that a lot of people can relate to and a-lot HAS changed. I’m reliable. If they are still casting. Hire me. I’m here. And I’m real. #RHOP for real

If you don’t speak up. You don’t get. You may not understand someone’s every move. But you cannot disrespect a woman who has that flex. Under my wig. Is a lot of bravery. pic.twitter.com/lve8g2kFUN

I didn’t beg, but I can’t get mad at page six. My edit would be “I asked” 🫶🏽
