Jill Zarin in The Real Housewives of New York City is coming to add some spice to the second half of Below Deck season 11.
On Monday, Bravo released the mid-season trailer for the popular reality show and teased the arrival of RHONY original cast member, 60, who starred on the show from 2008 to 2011. In the clip, Zarin appears as a demanding charter guest who pushes the yacht crew to their limits.
“This is a buffet meal,” Zarin says in the new clip. “It shouldn’t be a three-hour meal. Make it better.”
She continues telling the team that her “burger is cold,” and the video cuts to Chef Anthony Iracane expressing his confusion and frustration with the situation with the Real Housewives of New York City legend.
“Can I have a translator in the kitchen, please?” he says. “Because I have no idea what the hell is going on right now.”
Last month, Captain Kerry Titheradge and Chief Stew Fraser Olender spoke to US Weekly about Zarin’s appearance on the show and said that she was certainly a guest that fans would enjoy watching, even if it meant trouble for the team.
“She’s sweet. She’s very adorable and very funny — but demanding,” Fraser said. “(But) all guests are picky. They are charter guests and they have their preferences and it can be frustrating at times.”
The rest of the nearly three-minute trailer promises tears, hookups, and a tense moment where Titheradge tells a member of the St. David’s crew that they have no future working on the yacht.
“I did everything I could to make you successful. The problem is you’re not thriving,” Titheradge told an off-camera crew member. “If you’re not all-encompassing and adding value to the rest of the crew, I can’t have you here.”
Also on board for the last nine episodes of season 11 is a new St. David’s steward who shakes things up for the crew members and the established relationships already underway before the newcomer appears on the scene.
“She’s an attractive girl,” says sailor Kyle Stillie.
“Damn, I’m in trouble,” adds deckhand Ben Willoughby.
Below Deck airs Mondays at 9pm on Bravo.
