Rovsek and Beador have joined the old-timers in the cast's first promo shot for the new season. The sole original castmember from season one, Gunvalson is front and center next to Dubrow and Barney, while the two new ladies round out the snapshot at each end. Blonde Beador is photographed on the left while brunette stunner Rovsek is seated on the right. (Alexis Bellino and Gretchen Rossi were fired back in September 2013 after two seasons each respectively, and Lydia McLaughlin exclusively told Us in November 2013 that she would not be returning after just one season.)

Us exclusively revealed the names of the two new housewives back in December 2013. As previously reported, former model Rovsek was crowned Miss Kentucky USA in 2002. She owns Sun Kitten Swimwear by Lizzie, which creates "high-end, special occasion designer swimsuits." The married housewife — who tied the knot with OC real estate executive Christian Rovsek in 2009 — is mom to sons Preston and Kingston.

Beador, meanwhile, shares three kids with contractor mogul husband David Beador. The couple reside in Newport Beach's Bonita Canyon neighborhood.
