Reese Witherspoon teases upcoming project with Real Housewife at the Emmys 2024

An apple? A diamond? A peach? For now, Reese Witherspoon is keeping that part under wraps.

The 48-year-old revealed on the Emmys 2024 red carpet that she is currently working on a project with her media company, Hello Sunshine, and a secret Real Housewife.

“I did sit next to a Real Housewife on a flight recently,” Witherspoon told Heather McMahan on “Live From E!: Emmys” Sunday. “Well we might have a Hello Sunshine project cooking now but I can’t say. It was cool, it was really cool.”

As for whether the “Legally Blonde” alum is a fan of the “Housewives” franchise? As she put it, “I’ve never watched it and I feel like I can’t catch up.”

After a Bravo fan account posted the clip to social media, fans took to the comment section to share their best guess on who Witherspoon might be talking about.

One user wrote, “Kyle [Richards] for sure,” while another echoed those sentiments, writing, “Kyle, Kandi [Burruss] or Garcelle [Beauvais].”

All three ladies have ample experience as actors and producers, so viewers may not be too far off.

In addition to the mystery project, Witherspoon has been working on Season 3 of “Big Little Lies” and Season 4 of “The Morning Show.”
