This is bananas.

Designer and stylist Rachel Zoe, who starred in her own reality show on Bravo, The Rachel Zoe Project, from 2008 to 2013, is returning to the network in the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Zoe made the announcement Friday in a video posted to social media that she captioned, “Here we go again @bravotv !!! I am officially joining #TheRealHousewivesofBeverlyHills and back with my Bravo family. Let’s do this!”

“It’s official,” she said in the accompanying footage. “I am coming back to Bravo. I am joining the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It’s been a while, and you’ve been asking me to come back to television. And I said when the stars align or it makes sense or I have enough to say to share with all of you and now is the time.”

She added that she’s “really excited to be with all of you again, and I hope you are too. So let’s have some fun.”

The official account for the network commented, “WELCOME BACK! Let’s do this.”

Zoe’s former show centered around her preparing her high-end, often celebrity clientele for events. and Kate Hudson and Jennifer Garner are among those who made appearances. Her interactions with designers including Diane von Furstenberg and Marc Jcobs were featured, too.

Actress Leslie Bibb said that she had “based one character totally on some part of Rachel Zoe, like that world,” on a March episode of SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live.

The reality show she joins has been on the air since 2010 and, like its sister shows, has an evolving cast. The cast on the most recent season, which ended in April, included Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Sutton Stracke, Bozoma Saint John, and Garcelle Beauvais. Kathy Hilton and Jennifer Tilly were friends of cast members who made appearances.

Beauvais said in March that she would not be returning.
