“Yes, actually I am doing Housewives now and Xscape is having a reality show as well,” the reality star, 41, told Us at the BET Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 25. “I’m doing both at the same time. Right now we’re taping both shows. Xscape will be on Bravo this fall along with Housewives. I hope everybody supports the show just as much as they support Housewives.”

In fact, Burruss has a feeling this season of RHOA may end up being even wilder than the last. “It was a lot of drama last season, so I kind of prepared myself now that I’m coming into this season, season 10, it’s gonna be even crazier,” she said. “It’s a lot of different things going on, not just with me, but some of our past castmates are coming back, and we’re gonna see how that goes. We just started taping this past week. I haven’t even seen everybody yet.”
