The Real Housewives is also expanding with the announcement of The Real Housewives of London and The Real Housewives of Rhode Island. Cohen shared more information about the latter series in an interview with Page Six, and he compared the upcoming show to the original RHONJ. "They are very Italian," Cohen told the publication. "Rhode Island is such a small state, and they all kind of know each other and overlap, and it's an incredible group of women who have really interesting connections. I think it’s going to really surprise people."
