Eboni K. Williams is joining The Real Housewives of New York as the first Black housewife and her resume is nothing short of impressive!

The Real Housewives of New York have officially added a new housewife into the mix!  Eboni K. Williams is joining the ladies ahead of season 13 for the hit show, and she looks like she will make a great addition!  Eboni can be found on Instagram @ebonikwilliams if you want to give her a follow.  Based on her Instagram bio, Eboni is the host and producer of Revolt Black News, which is also on Youtube.

Revolt TV is an “American music-oriented digital cable television network founded by Sean Combs,” according to their Wikipedia page.  Eboni can be seen on the channel discussing politics and other pertinent topics, which is much like The Real Housewives of Potomac star, Wendy Osefo!  

Eboni is from Charlotte, North Carolina and she’s worked for Fox News Channel, Fox Sports, NBA 2K, according to an article on Revolt.Tv.  Prior to that, Eboni apparently enrolled and started college at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill at the age of 16!  She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from UNC-Chapel Hill and went on to get her Juris Doctor from Loyola University New Orleans College of Law.

On the announcement on BravoTV.com, Eboni said, “NYC is filled with successful and dynamic Black women. I’m excited to join this legendary franchise as the first Black housewife.”  Eboni continued that those close to her know she doesn’t hold anything back, which sounds like the reality check some of the RHONY ladies need.  Ramona Singer is freaking out somewhere right now!

Dorinda Medley announced she was fired from the show after six seasons, and Leah McSweeney joined the cast just last year.  Leah is returning next season along with Ramona, Sonja Morgan, and Luann de Lesseps.

The Real Housewives of New York City will be back on Bravo for reruns!
