We’ve been keeping you abreast of all the gossip surrounding the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills – and there’s been a lot!- but now we can confirm that there will be a new lady joining in on the drama.

It was just revealed that David Foster’s wife, Yolanda Hadid, is going to be hanging out with the ladies for the third season and apparently has known Lisa Vanderpump for ages. An ‘insider’ has all the goss on how she’ll do on set.

The insider says “What most people don’t realize is that Yolanda was married to Lisa’s very good friend, Mohamed Hadid. Mohamed has appeared several times on the show, including during the last season when he threw an over the top engagement party for Lisa’s daughter, Pandora. Yolanda is going to make an excellent addition to the cast and she can definitely hold her ground if the claws come out; she is no shrinking violet.”

This same insider has lots of information regarding the filming, saying: “Filming began last week on the third season with Kyle Richards. She has a lot going on in her life right now, including helping her sister Kim navigate the sometimes rocky road of sobriety. Kim’s sobriety and recovery are going to be a focal point of her story line. The ladies haven’t all filmed together yet, but are expected to begin that next week. The ladies are also extremely concerned about Taylor’s drinking problem. It has really gotten out of control, and they all believe she is an alcoholic in need of help. Producers also want to lighten things up for the upcoming season.”
