After five seasons, Garcelle Beauvais announced her departure from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH). The 58-year-old actress, who made history as the franchise’s first Black Housewife in 2020, shared the news via an emotional Instagram video. Her exit was announced just hours before the Season 14 finale aired. But why is she leaving, and what’s next for this Hollywood veteran?

Garcelle Beauvais’ RHOBH Journey

Beauvais joined the Bravo series in Season 10, instantly becoming a fan favorite with her authenticity, sharp wit, and unapologetic voice. As the first Black cast member in the show’s history, she brought much-needed diversity to the 90210 zip code, navigating high-stakes drama gracefully and resiliently. Over five seasons, Beauvais clashed with heavyweights like Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, and Erika Jayne, championed underdogs like Sutton Stracke, and shared heartfelt moments about her life as a single working mother to sons Oliver, Jax, and Jaid.

Her tenure wasn’t without challenges. In Season 12, Beauvais faced a harrowing ordeal when her then-14-year-old son Jax was targeted by racist online bots, prompting her to defend her family fiercely. Despite the hardships, she remained a beacon of strength, earning praise for rising above the fray. “It’s been a wild ride,” Beauvais said in her farewell video. “Some amazing things have happened, and some hard things have also happened, but it’s been a ride nevertheless.”

Why Is Garcelle Beauvais Leaving RHOBH?

Beauvais cited two primary reasons for leaving her diamond behind: family and career. “One of the reasons why I’m leaving is my family, my boys,” she explained. Her twin sons, Jax and Jaid, are entering their final year of high school in 2026, a milestone she’s determined to be present for. Additionally, Jaid is launching a modeling career—highlighted by his runway debut in Season 14 at Sutton Stracke’s fashion show—and Beauvais wants to support his journey. As a devoted mom and grandmother of two (via son Oliver), family has always been her anchor.

The second driving force behind her departure is her thriving career. “I have the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing, and acting in,” Beauvais teased, keeping details under wraps but promising fans will “know soon.” Since joining RHOBH, she’s leveraged her platform to secure a first-look deal with NBCUniversal in 2022 and has been a powerhouse at Lifetime, starring in and executive producing films like Black Girl Missing and Caught in His Web.

The critically acclaimed FX series Snowfall concluded its six-season run in 2023. Now, a spinoff featuring two familiar faces—Gail Bean’s Wanda and Isaiah John’s Leon —is moving forward, with FX officially ordering a pilot.

A New Chapter For Wanda and Leon

Snowfall, co-created by the late John Singleton, Eric Amadio, and Dave Andron, explored the origins of the crack cocaine epidemic in South Central Los Angeles in the 80s and 90s. The series, led by Damson Idris as Franklin Saint, gained a dedicated following over its six seasons. After the finale aired in April 2023, speculation about a potential spinoff began, and in March 2023, Deadline reported that a project centered on Gail Bean’s character, Wanda, was in early development.

Fast forward to March 2025, and FX has greenlit a pilot for the untitled Snowfall spinoff, bringing back Gail Bean as Wanda Bell-Simmons and Isaiah John as Leon Simmons.

Who’s Returning To The ‘Snowfall’ Spinoff?

The spinoff will center on Wanda and Leon, who were integral to the narrative in the original series. Wanda, initially introduced as Leon’s girlfriend, struggled with addiction before emerging as a survivor by the series’ end. Leon, Franklin Saint’s best friend and second-in-command, transitioned from a life of crime to one of purpose, eventually moving to Ghana with Wanda in the final season.

Both actors have confirmed their return for the spinoff, while no other cast members from the original series have been announced.

‘Snowfall’ Spinoff Plot Details: A Shift to the Gangster Rap Era

The spinoff picks up in 1990s Los Angeles, shortly after the events of Snowfall’s finale. According to the official logline, the story follows Wanda, a recovering addict, as she strives to take West Coast rap mainstream amid a brewing gang war. This premise shifts the focus from the drug trade that defined the series to the rise of the “gangster rap” business.

The original series highlighted the impact of crack cocaine on the community, often tying in real-world influences like the Bloods and Crips gangs. The spinoff builds on this foundation while exploring how the region transitioned into a new phase marked by music and ongoing conflict. Wanda’s pursuit of a music career, briefly mentioned in the Snowfall finale, serves as a narrative bridge, while Leon’s presence suggests his continued role as her partner and support system.

Production Updates: Pilot Ordered, Filming Set for Summer 2025

Production is slated to begin in the summer of 2025. The project remains with FX Productions. Executive producers include Snowfall alums Dave Andron, Thomas Schlamme, Julie DeJoie, Michael London, and Trevor Engelson.

While the pilot order is a promising milestone, the spinoff’s future hinges on its performance. If successful, FX could greenlight a full series, potentially bringing Wanda and Leon’s story to screens in 2026 or beyond. No official release date or title has been confirmed yet.
