Believe it or not, there’s a lot more “Real Housewives” drama that is seen on television.
And now there’s a book about it.
On Wednesday, Andy Cohen Books, an imprint of Henry Holt, announced it will publish “Not All Diamonds and Rosé: The Inside Story of The Real Housewives From the People Who Lived It,” written by entertainment journalist Dave Quinn.
The 496-page hardcover is set for release on Oct. 19 and has already become a No. 1 bestseller on Amazon in preorders.
The tome includes in-depth interviews with over 100 Housewives past and present from Atlanta, Beverly Hills, Dallas, D.C., Miami, New York, New Jersey, Orange Country, and Potomac.
“I like to think of Not All Diamonds and Rosé as the ultimate reunion,” Cohen —the “Real Housewives” kingpin — said with the announcement. “I know readers will be surprised, entertained, and even shocked at what’s in store.”
The publishing company said the book is the “definitive oral history and includes hundreds of hours of exclusive interviews, candid conversations and never-before-heard details from those involved.”
From main cast members and their friend, to producers, network executives, casting directors and more, the author offers readers an exclusive all-access pass to behind-the-scenes dirt of the legendary rivalries, off-camera revelations, and some of the most memorable moments in “Real Housewives history.
A lifelong Bravo fan since back in the “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” days, Quinn has covered the Bravo hit reality franchise for outlets such as People and Entertainment Weekly.
“As a dedicated viewer of Housewives since day one, it was such a thrill to walk through 15 years of history with the Housewives, producers, executives, and guest stars who helped make this franchise into the cultural phenomenon it is today,” he said.
He added, “‘Not All Diamonds and Rosé' is packed full of delicious drama, tantalizing tea, and surprising secrets that [are] going to leave fans gagged. Get ready to see this franchise like you’ve never seen it before!”
