She’s out. Lizzy Savetsky announced she would no longer be part of the Real Housewives of New York City reboot after receiving various anti-semitic comments.
“I will not be continuing on the Real Housewives of NYC,” Savetsky, 36, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, November, 16. “As a proud orthodox Jewish woman, I thought participating in the series would be a great chance to represent people like me and share my experience.

The Texas native, who labels herself as a “Proud Jew & Zionist” via her Instagram bio, frequently takes to social media to post about her Jewish faith and traditions and often cohosts “Stella’s Torah Corner” with her eldest daughter — a mini-series that features the twosome explaining different portions of the Torah.
Last month, it was confirmed at BravoCon 2022 that Lizzy, along with Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Dana Lichy, Jessel Taank, Jenna Lyons and Brynn Whitfield were set to star in RHONY season 14. Filming was slated to begin sometime in the fall and the new episodes will premiere in 2023.
