Caroline Manzo, one of the stars of Bravo’s Real Housewives of New Jersey, is reportedly filming a spin-off pilot for the network.
According to TheWrap, which first reported the news, Manzo’s pilot has received the green light from the Comcast-owned network. It is currently titled Manzo’d With Children and will follow her attempts to get her crazy Italian family under control. Albie wants to get married, Chris is trying to cook up a new idea and Lauren is hoping to get engaged. Aunt Fran, who appeared on RHONJ this season, will be a series regular.
Bravo also confirmed the news to Us Weekly.
Manzo has been on RHONJ since it started in 2009. The fifth season finale is on Sept. 29.
Bethenny Frankel (New York); NeNe Leakes, Kim Zolciak and Kandi Burruss (Atlanta); Lisa Vanderpump (Beverly Hills); and Tamra Barney (Orange County) have also earned spin-offs after the success of their Real Housewives shows.
Manzo’s sister Dina also appeared on RHONJ and has an HGTV show titled Dina’s Party.
