A new Garden State gal is reportedly joining the highly entertaining ladies of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
The wife of former NFL star Tiki Barber – Traci Lynn Johnson – has reportedly been filming with existing cast members Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Dolores Catania, Margaret Josephs and Jackie Goldschneider for the upcoming season of the Bravo franchise, which is already in production.
Jennifer Aydin is also set to return for Season 12.
"Tiki Barber's wife Traci Lynn filmed with the cast at Margaret Josephs' Pride party in Englewood, NJ on Tuesday night," a source told The Sun.
"The party was shot for season 12," the insider added. "Traci is being tested out to see how she fits in with the other women, she's been filming scenes."
Several of the current cast members and their husbands have also "liked" Tiki and Traci's photos in recent weeks.
RadarOnline.com has requested comment from Bravo, but the network notoriously does not comment on casting.

During the massive Pride bash with her co-stars, her mom and her husband, Margaret gave an inspiring speech.
Marge Sr. and Joe Benigno have become staples of the show in their own right.
As for the potential newcomer, Traci Lynn is not new to scandal or drama.
After all, she made headlines a decade ago after Tiki – a retired running back who played for the New York Giants – left his pregnant wife for her.
Tiki married his first wife, Ginny Cha, in 1999. They went on to have two sons: Atiim Kiambu Barber Jr., now 18, and Chason Barber, now 17.
But in 2010, while Ginny was expecting the couple's now-11-year-old twin girls Ella and Riley Barber, Tiki wanted out.
The story at the time was that he cheated on his then-wife with Traci Lynn, but both of the accused have long denied the rumor, maintaining that Tiki was separated from Ginny by the time they got together.
Tiki and Ginny's divorce was finalized 2012, and eight days later, he married Traci Lynn. They will celebrate their 9th wedding anniversary on July 19.
The two share two young daughters, Brooklyn and Teagan Barber.
