Not all housewives can keep their distance from the Real Housewives franchise.

Kristen Taekman already announced last October that she’s leaving The Real Housewives of New York City after two seasons but it sounds like she might be dropping by this season.

Asked by People whether she’ll appear on season 8, Taekman would only say, “Stay tuned.”

Taekman joined the cast of RHONYC in season 6, where she got into a water fight with Ramona Singer. The following season was less chaotic for Taekman despite clashing with Bethenny Frankel and Dorinda Medley. However, her personal life was far from drama free. Last August, Kristen’s husband Josh finally admitted to having an Ashley Madison account after denying ever signing up for the cheating website. Amid the controversy, the Taekmans remain together. However, she ultimately decided to leave the Bravo series. 

“My experience during my time on RHONY was fantastic and I made some great new friends,” Taekman posted on Instagram at the time. “At this time in my life, I have decided to concentrate on my family and my new business ventures Pop Of Color nail polish and Last Night’s Look, my fashion blog. I will remain a Housewife and part of an amazing franchise forever and that is what is important. ” 

Though Taekman doesn’t confirm or deny her possible appearance this season, she says she doesn’t miss the show at all. 

“I feel like I have a very strong personality … so many times I meet people and they’re like, ‘Oh my God, you’re kind of a firecracker,’ and I’m like, ‘I know.’ I just can’t get it out with those ladies, nor do I want to or need to,” she told People. 

“I don’t miss the drama of it,” she added.

The Real Housewives of New York City airs Wednesdays at 9pm on Bravo.
