Dorinda Medley May Be Replaced By Tiger Woods’ Ex-‘Mistress’ Rachel Uchitel On ‘RHONY’

New York socialite and the former “mistress” of Tiger Woods Rachel Uchitel might be next in line to join the cast of The Real Housewives of New York City after Dorinda Medley revealed she won’t be a part of the show’s next season.

As Page Six reported, Rachel was being considered for the cast last season, but the producers ended up selecting Leah McSweeney instead. Now, she may get her chance to appear on the Bravo franchise after all.

Rachel hasn’t confirmed she will be a part of the group, responding that the idea of her joining the other women was “news” to her. Bravo did not say whether she was in consideration either, but they did confirm she had been considered previously for RHONY.

A source told the news outlet that Rachel is the perfect fit as a socialite and famous face in Manhattan.

“She’s linked to New York — growing up here, and [she was] on the cover of the New York Post as ‘New York’s tragic face,’?” the insider said.

Rachel was photographed by the New York Post following the 9/11 terrorist attacks. In the image, she held a flyer up showing her fiancé, James Andrew O’Grady, was missing. It was later determined he was killed in the attack.

Rachel later went on to “date” Tiger, and married businessman Matt Hahn. She has also been linked to Harry Dubin, who has been a regular feature on the series. He has reportedly dated or been interested in numerous women on RHONY, including Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, and Ramona Singer. He was married to a former cast member, Aviva Drescher, as well.

“I do like her very much,” Harry told Page Six of Rachel. “We are great friends. Who knows where the future is gonna go? Is it heading in that direction? I don’t know.”

“Everything she said is correct. I’m not saying that there is anything happening,” he added, in response to her claims that they were only friends and nothing more. Two sources said he is “madly in love” with her, however.

On top of that, Rachel is further linked to the Bravo world after reportedly dating Paul “PK” Kemsley, who is currently married to Dorit Kemsley, star of the TheReal Housewives of Beverly Hills.

The news comes just one day after sources claimed Dorinda received the ax after six seasons on the franchise, as The Inquisitr previously reported.
