He also told Kelly: “That’s a rumor that’s popped up a few times over the years. It’s always something that I’ve kind of discounted. I’ve thought, it’s two different shows. I don’t see it.

“I know some of the women actually know her, and I will say watching your show this morning and hearing it come out of your mouth, it kind of legitimized it in a way.” 

According to , Nicole recently shared snaps hanging out at the Jersey shore at Barnegat Bay, at the same time as some of ladies.

Nicole also shared in her  blog: “Remember when we were talking about the [Real Housewives] and what my tag line would be?

“Well everybody thought that I was going to join

Nicole went on in the blog saying Andy Cohen had no interest in her either.

She said: “Andy made it clear on his twitter saying, ‘She ain’t joining’ like he doesn’t like me or something and the article was saying I was begging to be on the show.

“My f**king a** I was begging anybody. I do not want to be a housewife. Like who makes this sh*t up? I really don’t get it!”
