The producers have asked her plenty of times.<\/p>\n<p>Kimora opened up about the subject again during a recent appearance on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. During the interview, she said that she was fully aware that reality TV fans wanted to see her back on TV, but she really didn\u2019t want it to be via RHOBH. According to her, that show is a bunch of \u201cmanufactured crap.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She explained that despite being asked \u201ca lot\u201d to join RHOBH, she preferred to stick with something closer to Life in the Fab Lane. She said she wanted to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2022\/08\/29\/kimora-lee-simmons-no-patience-real-housewives\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">steer clear of the drama<\/a> that comes along with the Housewives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t want to go on the Housewives, and people wanted me to go on there on TV like that, and I didn\u2019t want to fight with these girls,\u201d Kimora explained. \u201cAnd I didn\u2019t want to have manufactured drama with these girls.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instead of playing in the mud with the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/kyle-richards\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kyle Richards<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/erika-jayne\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Erika Jayne<\/a>, Kimora decided to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/11\/05\/kimora-lee-simmons-new-reality-show-trailer-back-in-the-fab-lane\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">stay in the Fab Lane<\/a>.
