As a Bravo fan, I’ve been guilty of rooting for several of our single stars to fall in love. After all, some of these people have endured the heartache of divorce and cheating. Others just haven’t managed to find their lobster. (Shout out to Friends!) Now that Peacock is launching a new dating show, I’m all in.
The first season features Gizelle Bryant, Ashley Darby, Luann de Lesseps, and Shannon Beador looking for love. But what other lovelorn reality stars should be cast on the show?
These are the Bravo stars that we’d like to see on Peacock’s new dating show.
Porsha Williams – RHOA
People reported that the Peacock show, which will air sometime in 2025, will feature a “diverse dating pool” for the bachelorettes to swim in. Let’s face it – Porsha Williams needs some help because she picks the wrong men.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star has reclaimed her peach but is going through her second divorce. And it is messy. Porsha filed for divorce from Simon Guobadia after just one year of marriage. As you may recall, their lightning-fast engagement caused some controversy because Simon was in the process of divorcing Porsha’s co-star, Falynn Pina.
According to Page Six, Porsha filed for divorce on February 22, 2024. In a recent set of court documents, she revealed that learning of Simon’s possible deportation and alleged immigration fraud was too much to bear.
“I have always trusted you from day one when I took your hand and started on this journey,” the documents read. “Your job is to protect PJ and I and you have not.”
Pilar Jhena McKinley (PJ) is the daughter that Porsha shares with Dennis McKinley, her ex-boyfriend. It seems as if Porsha needs some help figuring out exactly what she needs in a partner.
Brynn Whitfield – RHONY reboot
When Real Housewives of New York received a reboot for Season 14, most fans were pleased with the new cast. One standout was Brynn Whitfield, a fun-loving and flirtatious marketing consultant.
Brynn loved to flirt with co-star Jenna Lyons, just to keep things interesting. And although she was engaged three times, Brynn never made it down the aisle. Maybe she just hasn’t met Mr. Right, and the dating show could find her perfect match.
Katie Maloney – Vanderpump Rules
Vanderpump Rules star Katie Maloney finally decided to ditch her husband, Tom Schwartz, in 2022. The couple had been married for six years. Unfortunately, Schwartz couldn’t stop making out with other women while married to Katie.
After their divorce, Katie dipped her toe in the dating pool. She even hooked up with one of Schwartz’s best friends, Max Boyens. Then she decided to date the same woman as Schwartz, Tori Keeth. Both just seemed like fun romps.
But now Katie is ready for something more. And she knows exactly what she wants. “I like hot people,” Katie admitted. Okay, then!
“Unless someone’s really down to be serious about stuff, I don’t really want to date. If someone wants to date me,” Katie explained, “they have to prove that they deserve a place in my life.”
After all, Katie is busier than ever since the opening of her sandwich shop with Ariana Madix, called Something About Her. It has taken Katie a while to feel settled enough for a real relationship, so Peacock could offer some interesting people for her to meet. Take the plunge, Katie!
Sutton Stracke – RHOBH
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Sutton Stracke hasn’t been lucky in love. The Georgia peach has been having trouble finding her dating groove since her divorce from her husband, Christian Stracke.
In fact, during Season 13 of the show, Sutton hadn’t made it into second-date territory. Her co-stars tried to coach her, but it didn’t stick. Of course, Sutton had a lot of dating rules.
Finally, she hired a matchmaker to find her some potential dates. I believe that Sutton and her quirky personality would be perfect for this new dating show. Just find her someone else who loves to rock the mic at karaoke.
Sonja Morgan – RHUGT: Legacy
RHONY alum Sonja Morgan is never lacking in male attention. But it seems as if she never has long-lasting, serious relationships. I think that Sonja and her bawdy sense of humor would be hysterical on a dating show. This is a woman who forgot to put on the bottoms of her Halloween costume. She discovered her mistake when she was at a party, flashing everyone. Lordy!
Sonjarita is always entertaining, and she proved as much on the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: RHONY Legacy. Still, I’d love to see her coupled up and happy.
Captain Jason Chambers – Below Deck Down Under
Below Deck Down Under’s dashing Captain Jason Chambers has caused many a heart to flutter. Jason shares a daughter, Saskia, with his ex-girlfriend, Fuchsia Quinn. And Jason’s daughter is his main concern at all times. As it should be.
Still, Jason is single despite being pursued at BravoCon by some eligible bachelorettes. While this “cuddle monster” isn’t actively searching, Jason is willing to entertain the idea of a love interest. That is why Jason nabbed his place as one of the Bravo stars that we want to see on Peacock’s new dating show.
