Gorga: Kathy Wakile is Coming Back for Season 4

Kathy Wakile will return for fourth season of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” according to cast mate Melissa Gorga.

Gorga told “In Touch” magazine that Wakile will be back despite rumors to the contrary flying around the Internet last week, Examiner.com reported.

In addition to those rumors, former ‘Housewife’ and Wayne resident Danielle Staub, a 50-year-old divorced mother of two, was rumored to be returning to the show. Staub has denied the rumor.  

Staub reportedly signed a contract to return to the show and will film “several episodes,” InTouchweeky.com reported recently. The website reportedly quoted a source close to the show who said that producers are bringing in Staub, who was a regular for the series’ first two seasons, because they squeezed all they could out of the drama between Teresa Giudice-Gorga storyline last season.

Bravo has not commented on the casting rumors. There was no announcement of any casting changes on the show’s website Monday.
