Bravo Confirms Lizzy’s Departure
Lizzy Savetsky, who boasts 220,000 followers on Instagram, calls herself a “Proud Jew & Zionist” in her bio. Her departure from the “RHONY” reboot comes not even a month after Bravo announced she would be a part of the cast, alongside Ubah Hassan, Erin Dana Lichy, Jenna Lyons, Sai De Silva, Jessel Taank and Brynn Whitfield.
Bravo has also come forward to confirm Lizzy’s departure amid a pool of antisemitic comments against the Zionist influencer. A spokesperson from Bravo stated: “After thoughtful consideration and discussion with Lizzy, we have reached the mutual conclusion that Lizzy will not be a cast member on ‘RHONY.’”
Production sources revealed that the mother of three, who is married to a plastic surgeon, stopped filming for the show nearly two weeks ago. Previously, Bravo described Lizzy as a “digital influencer” who “uses her platform to express her style, and educate others on her deep-rooted beliefs.”
The Zionist influencer also runs her own matchmaking service “Bashert”, dedicated to Jewish singles. Lizzy also came to light when she fired back at Kanye for his “hate speech” and “antisemitic rants” against the Jewish community. In October, she posted a video, slamming the “Donda rapper” and noted in the caption, “I continue to receive shockingly hateful, even threatening comments in support of his antisemitic message.”
