Garcelle Beauvais Describes Filming Real Housewives of Beverly Hills as Her Most Challenging Job

Garcelle Beauvais visited The Jennifer Hudson Show on Tuesday and opened up about being a castmate on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

The 57-year-old longtime actress called the reality television gig the ‘hardest job [she’s] ever done.’

Since joining the Bravo TV series in 2020 for season 13, she admitted it’s been a challenging adjustment.

‘As an actor, you can hide behind a character,’ she explained to 42-year-old Hudson. ‘But being on a reality show it’s all you. 

‘It’s you, it’s your family, it’s your house. So sometimes, you know…somebody can dig something up or say something that gets under your skin and it hurts.’

And as for dating while starring on a hit program, she said: ‘That’s tricky because not everybody wants to be on a reality show.

She added, ‘But I have a full life. When the man comes he comes.’

Despite the hurdles that come along with her life being broadcast on national television, Garcelle still thinks the job is ‘fun.’

‘The best part is we have a lot of fun,’ she noted.

‘When we’re not being catty and shading each other, it’s really fun,’ she insisted. ‘And the ridiculousness of how we dress, where we go…I mean, ball gowns to lunch if you want to. So it’s fun.’

The Haitian-American beauty, who starred on The Jamie Foxx Show in the late 90s, looked smart in a powder blue pantsuit for her appearance on the talk show.

She elevated the look with a glinting stone-covered choker worn around her neck.

And the mother-of-three’s red hair was sleek — styled in a center part and ironed straight.

Garcelle has been on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills since season 13 in 2020

Beauvais has had a heated confrontation with co-star Dorit Kemsley in the latest episodes of the show

It comes after Beauvais had an intense discussion about racism during last week’s episode of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

The drama began in the prior episode when co-star Dorit Kemsley said she felt ‘attacked’ by Garcelle while defending herself about ’embarrassing’ their fellow castmate Sutton Stracke over kissing her driver.

‘Dorit lives in a bit of a bubble, just triggers me,’ Garcelle said in a confessional at the time.

‘We live in a world now where we’re woke, whatever you want to say, and I feel like she’s not in that world.’
