Fans of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills were excited to meet Diana Jenkins when she was announced as season 12’s newest housewife, but viewers are now hoping that RHOBH season 12 is Diana’s only season. There are several cast members across the Real Housewives franchise who have only starred in one series, with RHOBH hosting several. Carlton Gebbia and Joyce Giraud were introduced on RHOBH season 4 before getting the chop ahead of season 5. Kathryn Edwards was briefly a housewife on RHOBH season 6, while Denise Richards lasted slightly longer, starring in RHOBH seasons 9 and 10.
Whether a housewife doesn’t mesh well with the other women or partakes in questionable behavior off-camera, Bravo has shown that they have no problem firing anyone on any of the Real Housewives installments. When Diana was announced as RHOBH‘s newest star in December 2021, fans were interested in getting to know her, especially considering her unique backstory. Born and raised in Bosnia, Diana fled the country as a teenager when war broke out in the early 1990s. Since immigrating to London as a refugee, Diana has risen to become a distinguished entrepreneur and philanthropist in Beverly Hills who owns the beverage company Neuro Drinks.
While viewers initially compared Diana to former RHOBH star Lisa Vanderpump when season 12 premiered in May, Bravo fans have had enough of Diana’s behavior on the show. One Reddit user recently begged Andy Cohen, who is an executive producer of RHOBH and nicknamed “The Godfather of Bravo,” to not renew her contract after season 12. Fans in agreeance are not just calling out Diana’s out-of-touch attitude, including the assertion that she has never stepped foot into a store, but her lack of storyline besides arguing with Sutton Stracke. “[Diana’s] truly insufferable and embarrassing to watch,” one user commented, while another responded that Diana is “so boring and contributes nothing.”
Dear Andy Cohen, from RHOBH
To make matters worse for the Bosnian entrepreneur, RHOBH fans are less than impressed by the controversies she has recently been involved with online. In June, Diana was criticized for commenting, “It can’t feel good being a Black content creator,” on an Instagram user’s post. Although Diana quickly apologized and blamed the misunderstanding on a language barrier, RHOBH fans branded Diana’s remark as racist. Weeks later, after RHOBH costar Garcelle Beauvais called Diana “uneducated” over the scandal, Diana wrote a lengthy now-deleted Instagram post, which included the comment, “Why don’t you tell the viewers how many millions of dollars I have given to your country [Haiti]. A woman from Bosnia did that.” Once again, instead of taking Diana’s side, fans branded Diana’s tirade as insensitive, condescending, and racially-motivated.
Although Diana had a relatively-strong start on RHOBH season 12, fans are ultimately tired of Diana’s antics and don’t want to see her return if Bravo greenlights a season 13. Diana isn’t the only housewife viewers want to be fired by Bravo, as Erika Jayne and Lisa Rinna’s own reputations are quickly sinking as season 12 plays out. Although Diana’s story and professional background were interesting at first, RHOBH’s newest housewife may quickly join Carlton, Joyce, and Kathryn as another one-season wonder.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.
