“We were really deep into the season, like four or five weeks into filming full time and we shut down immediately—just shut down. And we thought it was gonna be a two week break, which was fine. I think everybody was on board with that, like, ‘Okay, you know, we need to do what’s best,'” Simpson shared. “But then that two week break ended up being like a five to six month break. And so that was challenging. And then when we did start to film together again, I think Bravo, or Evolution together, did a great job. We were getting tested regularly, we were only filming like two at a time, we were filming outdoors. I think they just did everything they could to make sure we were all safe.”
Coronavirus isn’t the only thing shaking up season 15. There’s a new Housewife, Elizabeth Lyn Vargas, who Simpson calls “a great addition to add more fun and more layers to the mix.”
