Now, in an exclusive interview with The Sun, Patsy has confirmed that she was lined up be one of the Housewives but turned the programme down for a key reason.
Speaking to The Sun at the British Soap Awards, where she presented one of the night’s top prizes, Patsy revealed: “I did have a meeting with them.
“I live in my little flat in West Hampstead with my cat. My sons have flown the nest.
“I don’t think my lifestyle would stand up to these women – I wouldn’t fit with them.

“But I’m a huge fan and I love the show. I think the whole franchise is just phenomenal.
“Dawn Ward [Cheshire Housewife] is one of my favourites, I am a superfan of hers!”
The Sun first revealed that Patsy had been in talks with show bosses earlier this year before the final cast for the UK’s latest spin-off of the American franchise was revealed.
A TV insider said at the time: “The Real Housewives Of London is not about celebrities, but Patsy is typical of the calibre of people the producers are targeting.
“She’s an exception worth making in this case.“
The full line-up was unveiled just days later with a slew of stars with A-list connections confirmed to be on the bill.
Karen Loderick-Peace will be returning to the franchise having previously appeared on another UK spin-off of the show in 2020, The Real Housewives of Jersey.
Millionaire mogul Amanda Cronin is also one of the six ladies alongside former Ladies of London star Juliet Angus.
J-Lo’s pal Panthea Parker and Bake Off: The Professionals star Nessie Welschinger will also be letting fans into their lavish lives.
Aussie socialite and model, Juliet Mayhew, who now lives in London, completes the line-up.
