‘RHONY’ Star Dorinda Medley Negotiates New Spinoff at Iconic Bluestone Manor

She’s unpaused.

Dorinda Medley is in talks with Bravo to get her own spinoff series at Bluestone Manor, Page Six can confirm.

According to Deadline, who first reported the news Friday, the show would be similar to Hulu’s “Vanderpump Villa,” which follows the crew at Lisa Vanderpump’s French château.

In Medley’s version, the former “Real Housewives of New York” star would reportedly oversee a young staff as they welcome guests to her home in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts.

However, the show is still in the early stages of development.

Reps for Bravo and Medley did not immediately reply to our request for comment.



Bluestone Manor was the backdrop for several iconic moments on “RHONY” and Medley, 59, hosted several “Housewives” at the lavish estate for the second season of Peacock’s “The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Ex-Wives Club.”

Along with Medley, the cast included Taylor Armstrong, Brandi Glanville, Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge, Eva Marcille, Jull Zarin, and Phaedra Parks.

However, the mother of one told Page Six in May that there were a couple of people she wouldn’t invite back to her 11,000-square-foot Tudor-style estate — specifically “Real Housewives of Orange County” veteran Vicki Gunvalson and “RHONY” rival Jill Zarin.

During a taping of Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea,” Medley said she has no interest in hosting people who are “mean” and don’t understand the appeal of quiet living.



After her time on “RHUGT,” Gunvalson admitted she didn’t have fun at Medley’s property, telling Bravo she did “not want to go back” and “would get bored out of [her] mind out there.”

“There’s nothing to do out there,” she said in the June 2022 interview.

Although Medley initially clapped back at Gunvalson’s comments, she told us she believes it was just rooted in “jealousy.”

 “I think when someone’s really cruel about stuff like that, I think it’s more jealousy,” she explained.

“I don’t love everyone’s house I go to, but I’m not going to sit there and tell you why I don’t like it,” she added.



While Gunvalson won’t be invited back to Bluestone Manor, it sounds like the “Traitors” star will be welcoming a new group of people to her home very soon.
