'RHOBH' Producers Add Lisa Rinna's Socialite Friend Sanela Diana Jenkins For Season 12

The producers of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are reportedly bringing in some fresh meat to spice up season 12.
Production started early as the network wanted to make sure all the legal drama with Erika Jayne was captured on camera.
The execs pushed the start date from early next year to November and have already started filming. The cameras were set to roll hours before Dorit Kemsley was robbed at gunpoint during a terrifying home invasion in Encino.
Three men smashed a window and broke into her home as the reality star and her children were asleep. The suspects woke up Dorit as they stood at the foot of the bed with guns pointed at her.
The men ransacked the mansion and fled with a bunch of expensive handbags and jewelry. The L.A.P.D. is investigating but the robbers have yet to be caught.
The show, which is already producing juicy content only days into production, is also bringing on socialite Sanela Diana Jenkins into the mix.
Sanela was reportedly spotted filming with Dorit at the Andaz Hotel in Beverly Hills for the RHOBH star's first public appearance after the break-in. The other cast members Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Erika Jayne, and Garcelle Beauvais were also seen at the event.
The new cast member, who is likely being tested by producers to determine if she gets to hold a diamond, has quite the background and is filthy rich.
The Bosnia-born entrepreneur and philanthropist is the ex-wife of Barclays financier Roger Jenkins. Based on her Instagram, Sanela is close friends with Lisa Rinna and the Hilton family. Paris liked a bunch of her photos from the past couple of years.
Her family is also super close with Elton John and his husband David Furnish. On social, she has photos with the singer at his UK home.
