Janet From ‘Melbourne Housewives’ Dropped A Bombshell Claiming Three Ladies Are Getting Axed
The Real Housewives of Melbourne’s highly anticipated fifth season has wrapped up and before another season has even been confirmed, one of the the show’s stars is already spilling tea about Season 6’s cast.
Janet Roach (aka the messiest queen who ever lived) has tweeted an explosive claim that three of this season’s housewives will not return next year as they “rated poorly.” She cited the show’s previous one-season stars Susie McLean, Sally Bloomfield and Venus Behbahani-Clark as examples of RHOM housewives who also weren’t offered a second season. Spicy!
While Janet did not name who she was referring to, it has to be one of the new housewives which means it’s either Kyla Kirkpatrick, Cherry Dipietrantonio, Anjali Rao, or Simone Elliott. Anjali exited the season halfway through filming, so it’s hard to know whether she was even in the running to return.
This leaves Kyla, Cherry and Simone as the three that Janet could be claiming will be axed. However, Simone replied enthusiastically to Janet’s tweet — and she was close to Janet during the season — so it seems doubtful that Janet meant to include Simone.
On the flip-side, Janet clashed with Kyla, Cherry, and Anjali this season. She fought with Kyla persistently, claiming that Kyla had lied about her past. She was left offended when Cherry made an offensive remark about the size of Janet’s arm at Jackie Gillies’ podcast recording. And Anjali left the show after Kyla alleged that Janet had attempted to go through the draws of Anjali’s South Yarra apartment to prove she didn’t live there. Lol, this show.
It’s safe to say that there’s no love lost between Janet and Kyla, Cherry, or Anjali. Janet’s claims are, of course, just speculation at this stage and Foxtel has neither confirmed that another season is happening, nor announced anything about a potential cast. We have reached out to Foxtel regarding Janet’s tweet.
In regards to who could replace the three housewives, most fans would hope that a few of the OG housewives will rejoin the cast. And there are plenty of rumours that this could happen.
Gina Liano recently teased on Jackie’s Shine It Up podcast that, “if the show needed saving, I would feel like, ‘Oh god, I’ve gotta go in and fix this.’ I’m a fixer.” Gamble Breaux has also claimed that both Lydia Schiavello and Pettifleur Berenger could return next season. “I think if there’s another season we’ll definitely see Lydia,” she told the Unpopular podcast.
She added that Pettifleur was slated to appear this season, and she expected her to return next year if Season 6 is picked up. “I think if we do another season, we’ll see Pettifleur for sure.”
It’s time to manifest Gina, Lydia and Pettifleur returning to the series — as you simply couldn’t get more iconic than that.
