Season 6 of "The Real Housewives of Potomac" dropped on July 11, 2021. While Bravo hasn't officially confirmed whether or not the team will be back for Season 7, it's likely given how popular the show itself is. While earlier seasons of "RHOP" have typically premiered in late spring, both Seasons 5 and 6 started in the summer of 2020 and 2021, respectively, and it's likely that Season 7 will debut in the summer of 2022.
Since Season 6 of the show is still airing in real time, many eyes will be on Candiace Dillard Bassett, who sparked rumors that she might be leaving at the conclusion of each season since she joined in 2018. Numerous on-set clashes with her fellow cast members have often left Bassett feeling a little unsure of her place on the show.
However, she explained to In The Know that she wanted to focus on healing during Season 6, and that's exactly what she did. "I felt like, in a little bit of a way, I had a responsibility to help repair that. I had a lot of feelings, and it was a lot of positive and a lot of negative, but I think that when you get rid of negativity, it makes it easy to move forward. We all — the cast that you will see in Season 6 — we all wanted to move forward, and we all wanted to repair and heal."
