All the surgeries and tweakments the Real Housewives of Rhode Island have admitted to
One has been a totally open book!
The Real Housewives of Rhode Island may be the newest girls in the Bravo universe, but the beauty chat is already very much on-brand… candid, curious and just a tiny bit chaotic!
As with every Housewives franchise, people have immediately started wondering who’s had what done, and, more importantly, who’s actually willing to say it out loud.
The key word here is admitted. Because while RHORI is packed with glam, only a handful of the women have publicly confirmed specific procedures so far.
Here’s a rundown of what the Rhode Island cast, plus friend-of, Dolores Catania, have personally owned up to as of now.

Dolores is not a full-time Rhode Island Housewife, but Bravo has confirmed she appears on the new series as a friend, and she is by far the most open-book member of the wider RHORI orbit when it comes to cosmetic work.
Bravo previously reported that Dolores said she’d had a facelift, Botox and fillers, plus a tummy tuck, liposuction, a butt lift, a thigh lift and what she called a “new vagina.”
Ahead of the RHONJ season 11 reunion, she also told Bravo she got “full plastic surgery” from the neck down, including arm and leg body-tightening lipo.
Ashley Iaconetti

Ashley came into RHORI with years of reality TV experience, and she’s been unusually frank about tweakments.
Speaking to E! in December 2025, she said she gets Botox in her forehead about twice a year, and also confirmed lip filler and a small amount of under-eye filler.
Allure also noted that she had spoken publicly about starting preventative Botox in her 20s.
So while Ashley is not out here claiming some full surgical transformation, she has definitely been refreshingly honest about injectables and subtle maintenance.
Rulla Nehme Pontarelli
Rulla has not publicly confirmed that she has actually had a cosmetic procedure.
What she has admitted is that seeing herself on camera made her think about it.
At the RHORI premiere, she told PEOPLE she’d wondered whether she should get a facelift if she didn’t like what she saw onscreen, though she framed it as a joke.
That is a very Housewives-coded confession, but it’s still not the same thing as confirming surgery or tweakments already done.
Alicia Carmody

Alicia was part of the same red-carpet conversation as Rulla, but she did not admit to any surgery or tweakments.
Her comments were more about regretting not wearing makeup and second-guessing outfit choices once the show airs.
So, although some people are speculating, there is currently no admission from Alicia when it comes to nips and tucks.
Rosie DiMare

So far, Rosie has not publicly confirmed any cosmetic procedures in the coverage available around RHORI’s launch.
Her Bravo bio focuses on her background, family and role in the group, not any admitted tweakments. As of now, there’s nothing to add to her beauty file.
Liz McGraw

Liz may be close with Dolores, but that does not mean she has publicly shared the same level of procedural detail.
Current official RHORI materials identify her as part of the cast, but I could not verify any reputable, on-the-record admission from Liz about surgery or injectables.
Kelsey Swanson
@bravotv Former Miss Rhode Island USA. Future Real Housewife of Rhode Island. #RHORI premieres April 2nd before moving to SUNDAYS! #RealHousewivesOfRhodeIsland #KelseySwanson #RealityTV #CastingTape
Kelsey is in the same boat: confirmed cast member, yes; publicly admitted surgeries or tweakments in reliable press, not yet.
There is a lot of chatter online, but nothing quite like Dolores’ direct admission.
Jo-Ellen Tiberi

And finally, Jo-Ellen. She is part of the official RHORI cast, but at this stage, there’s no word from her about cosmetic procedures.
With a brand-new franchise, that may well change, but right now the record is quiet.
