MONTECITO, CALIFORNIA: In a surprising turn of events, Hollywood heartthrob Kevin Costner's estranged wife, Christine Baumgartner, might make an entrance into the glamorous realm of 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills'.
An insider disclosed to Radar Online, "It's a bit premature to talk casting," emphasizing that producers have not initiated contact with anyone at this early stage, particularly since Season 13 is set to air later this month.
At present, the producers remain occupied with the imminent premiere of Season 13 and have not yet initiated discussions with potential cast members.
Christine Baumgartner's 'affiliation with a Hollywood legend'
Reportedly, the speculation about Baumgartner's possible debut on Bravo's reality scene was ignited recently.
Its source suggested that producers are closely considering Christine as a captivating addition that could infuse a renewed sense of vitality into the seasoned reality series.
"Her affiliation with a Hollywood legend grants her a certain allure, adding an extra layer of intrigue to her potential role on the show," the source said.
"Brace yourself," a confidante warned 'RHOBH' fans, continuing, "A new queen just might be crowned."
Baumgartner might be the right fit for 'RHOBH'
The buzz surrounding the potential inclusion of the 49-year-old Baumgartner in RHOBH has already become a topic of conversation in Hollywood.
A source from Bravo TV revealed, "She embodies a powerful combination of beauty, financial acumen, and a contact list brimming with A-list names".
"This would place her on a pedestal above the current ensemble".
The insider shared, "While Lisa Rinna's link to Harry Hamlin was a coup, let's face it, Kevin's star power outshines Harry's by a mile!"
The internet isn't impressed
Fans have not take the news in a positive light ever since it popped up on their screens.
One commented on Facebook, "She never was a housewife! Lots of employees! Kevin Costner gave her everything and she had nothing by her self! Ungrateful!"
Another wrote, "I thought we were talking about Real Housewives?!!!"
While one said, "At this point this show should be called The Real Divorcees and Crooks", another similar comment read, "She’s not a housewife why would she be on there".
It's worth noting that Baumgartner currently resides in Montecito, far removed from Los Angeles.
The speculation surrounding her potential involvement in 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' adds an intriguing layer to her post-divorce narrative.
While viewers await confirmation, Costner might find himself facing an impending challenge as his ex-wife's next chapter could potentially unveil some aspects of the A-lister's private life.
