Alongtime star of Bravo’s “Summer House” is parting ways with the series. On June 25, Danielle Olivera announced that she wouldn’t be returning to the show.
“I wanted to share that I’ve come to the heartbreaking decision to not return as a full time cast member on the upcoming season of Summer House,” Olivera said in a statement posted on Instagram.
“Obviously this decision didn’t come without a tremendous amount of thought. Ultimately, I just need to trust my gut. If I can’t put 100% of myself into filming, genuinely and authentically, it really doesn’t feel right doing it in a full time capacity. The network, production, my cast, and especially all of you deserve that,” she continued.
“Right now I need to protect and prioritize the things that matter most to me – my company, my people, and of course myself,” she added.
Olivera joined the show as a full-time star on season 2, which premiered in January 2018, and dropped to a friend role for season 4. She returned full-time in season 5 and has been on the show ever since. She’s also appeared on Bravo’s “Winter House.”
