Dorinda Medley Teases Possible ‘RHONY’ Reunion: ‘Why Are We Not Filming This?’

Dorinda Medley knows that taking a pause isn’t necessarily a bad thing!

Whether it’s taking a break from reality television or choosing an alcohol-free spirit during a night out, the Bravo star is the queen of resetting the system and coming back better than ever.

Medley speaks exclusively with OK! about taking part in Dry January, if The Real Housewives of New York City reunion could ever happen, which Traitors cast member scared her and her partnership with Seedlip.

The legacy cast of RHONY is among Bravo’s most beloved, but do the ladies still hang out? “I just saw Lu [ Luann de Lesseps] yesterday. I’ll see Miss Ramona [Singer] in a couple of weeks when I go to Florida. I don’t see Sonja [Morgan] a lot because she’s sort of not in New York as much,” Medley says. “We still have our group chat. People think of us as these women who know each other from TV. But remember, we’ve been friends for years and years. We have history through our children, through our husbands, through our divorces, through the deaths of our husbands. People know us for the frosting of it, which you see, but there’s a lot of cake there that you don’t know about. When I saw Lu yesterday, I thought to myself, ‘Why are we not filming this?’ because it’s exactly as it was. All of it is exactly as you guys were watching it. The good, the bad, and the ugly.”

For now, fans can see Medley on this season of The Traitors.

After being one of the first people murdered during Season 3, Medley returned for Season 4 with a vengeance.

However, there was one person she worried about going against — Donna Kelce. “I was very excited that we got a traitor right off the bat, and it was Donna Kelce! How ironic is that?” she says. “One of the biggest things that everybody was waiting for was how everybody was going to take Donna, and then she’s a traitor! I was fearful of the Swifties [Taylor Swift fans]. I’ve seen them in action. That’s not a group, that’s an army, but Donna is the sweetest and so kind. I was happy that they made her a traitor.”

Despite her hectic schedule, Medley is all about resetting at the top of the new year.

“January’s always the perfect month to introduce new things,” the Massachusetts native says. “It’s a great reset to make sure you have things in your life that are authentic to you because we’re starting again. Dry January doesn’t mean dull January. Dry January doesn’t mean you can’t be part of the party.”

Since Medley is ditching alcohol for now, she joined forces with the non-alcoholic spirit Seedlip to enhance her mocktail game. “This partnership came along, and I thought, ‘Blue Steel Manor [her Massachusetts home] is all about inviting people into my house and into my life. I’ve got to make sure that there are options for everything.’ Then, Seedlip non-alcoholic spirit arrived. It’s visually beautiful, and it’s stunningly delicious. And the best part is, you don’t feel like you’re being left out of the party.”
