Los Angeles [US], August 6 (ANI): Entrepreneur and author Amanda Frances has announced her exit from ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ after appearing in the show’s 15th season, saying she is “grateful for the experience” but feels it is time to move on, according to People.
Frances, 40, shared the news in an Instagram post on Wednesday, August 5, revealing that her journey with the Bravo reality series has come to an end.
“My time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is complete,” Frances wrote. “Saying yes to this show was one of the boldest, wildest, most clarifying things I’ve ever done.”
Expressing gratitude for her time on the show, she added, “And I am genuinely grateful, grateful for the experience. The women. The viewers who saw me, rooted for me, challenged me, quoted me, misunderstood me, defended me, found my work, bought my books, or simply watched me try to explain metaphysics in a room full of diamonds and side-eyes.”
Frances said that while the show provided her with an “incredible platform,” it also helped her recognise the strength of her personal foundation.
“A platform is not the same thing as a foundation. And one of the greatest gifts of the experience was seeing just how strong my foundation actually is,” she wrote, according to People.
The entrepreneur also highlighted her upcoming memoir Holy F*ck, set to release on August 18, along with her plans to focus on her marriage to Eddie Tsivislavsky and raising her children — Canaan, 3, Delilah, 2, Liam, 9, and Shoshana, 7. Frances and Tsivislavsky’s son Zion passed away at five days old in 2022, as per the outlet.
Frances reflected on the lessons she learned during her time on the reality show, writing, “Every room has something to teach you,” and adding that some experiences can expand, challenge and remind people of who they already are.
“Your next move does not require anyone’s approval. Your evolution does not need a permission slip. And you can be grateful for an opportunity and know when it’s time to leave,” she wrote.
She ended her post with, “And obviously… Say it with me: I win in the end.”
Frances’ co-star Jennifer Tilly reacted to the announcement, writing, “Amanda, Good luck on your journey going forward. I can’t wait to read your new book! You are so funny and sweet and smart. We will miss you,” according to People.
During her single season on ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’, Frances sparked conversations among cast members and viewers over her income sources and her online courses about manifesting money. She also faced criticism from some viewers over her approach to handling conflicts.
Earlier, Frances told People that she considers herself a “calm, peaceful person” and questioned whether her emotionally regulated approach was “triggering” for some of her co-stars.
She explained that she often wondered whether sharing her thoughts during heated moments would be meaningful, saying she was not always in an environment where people were focused on personal growth and self-development, according to People.
Frances appeared alongside Sutton Brown, Erika Jayne, Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, Kathy Hilton, Bozoma Saint John and Rachel Zoe in the show’s 15th season. Bravo has not officially announced the renewal status of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for season 16. (ANI)
