Malvina Blloshmi joins The Real Housewives of New Jersey in Season 15 as one of five new full-time Housewives, and she arrives with a small family, a business she runs with her fiance, and a calm manner that hides a firm streak. She lives in Allendale, New Jersey, with her fiance Bryan Tiedemann and their three-year-old son Leo. She is not a familiar face to viewers yet, and Season 15 is her first season on the show.
Season 15 premieres in December 2026 on Bravo, with episodes streaming the next day on Peacock. No exact premiere date has been announced, and no trailer has been released yet.
The short version is simple. Malvina co-owns a cocktail mixer company called Dirty Pelican, she keeps her family life at the center of her story, and she has said she is reserved but will stand up for herself. The rest of this profile covers where she comes from, how the business works, who her family is, and what she brings to the new season.
Who Is Malvina Blloshmi
Malvina Blloshmi was born in Albania, and she moved to the United States with her family as a teenager. She now lives in Allendale, New Jersey. Her Albanian background is part of how she introduces herself, and it is one of the first facts viewers will hear about her.
Her age has not been confirmed. No age or date of birth has been given in the cast announcements, and no reliable listing states one. A fan account put her age at 37, but that figure has no source behind it, so this page does not use it. We will update this page as soon as our research team has the latest data.
Malvina is one of five new full-time cast members in Season 15, alongside Xio Cammarota, Juliette Collazo, Deeba Patel, and Natia Rufolo. Vanessa Barerra joins as a friend of the cast. The three returning women are Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, and Dolores Catania. Nine women make up the Season 15 cast in total.
Viewers first got a hint of Malvina in June 2026, when she was seen filming with cast members. The full cast was announced on October 21, 2026. She had no prior season on the show, and no earlier reality television credit has been confirmed for her. Season 15 is her introduction to the audience.
Dirty Pelican and Her Work
Malvina co-owns Dirty Pelican with her fiance Bryan Tiedemann. Dirty Pelican is a cocktail mixer company. It sells mixers for drinks like cosmopolitans, margaritas, and martinis, and the same mixers work for mocktails. It is not a restaurant, and it is not a bar.
The business is a joint project, not a side hobby. Malvina and Bryan run it together, and the company is the work most tied to her name outside the show. The mixers are the product, and the brand is built around making a drink at home without starting from scratch.
Dirty Pelican is at a crossroads in Season 15. The business needs decisions about where it goes next, and those decisions sit next to family plans that may have to wait. Malvina has said the future of the company and the question of expanding her family are tied together, and the timing is not settled.
That tension is the clearest thread in her Season 15 story. A small business at a turning point takes time and money, and a young family takes the same. Malvina has not said which way the decision will go, and the season will show how she and Bryan work through it.
Family With Bryan and Leo
Malvina is engaged to Bryan Tiedemann, and the two are not married yet. Bryan is her fiance and her business partner, and the two roles overlap in daily life. No wedding date has been announced, and no engagement date has been given.
Their son is Leonardo, called Leo, age 3. Leo is the only child Malvina and Bryan have, and he is a large part of how Malvina talks about her life. She posts family moments on social media, and Leo appears in the family life she shares there.
Family comes first in how Malvina describes her priorities. She has said the question of expanding the family depends on what happens with Dirty Pelican, and that the business crossroads may push those plans back. The point is practical, not dramatic: a business decision and a family decision share the same calendar.
Malvina keeps her family life in Allendale, and she has not shared details about when or how she and Bryan met. The two began appearing on each other’s social media pages in fall 2021, and they have built the business and the family since then. Beyond that, the early history of the relationship has not been confirmed.
How Malvina Joined the Cast
Malvina came into the cast through fellow newcomer Natia Rufolo. The two had been friends for a while before filming, and Natia was the connection that brought Malvina into the group. Malvina met the rest of the cast during filming, and she started the season knowing one person in the room.
Before filming began, she took advice from the three returning women. Teresa, Melissa, and Dolores each told her to be herself and have a good time, and Dolores added a separate piece of advice: give it time. Malvina has said she took that advice seriously, and it shaped how she went into her first season.
Filming began in spring 2026, after the show’s return was announced in March 2026. The show had been off air for more than two years, and Season 14 had ended without a reunion in August 2024. Filming for Season 15 wrapped by August 4, 2026. Malvina filmed her first season inside that return, with five new women and three veterans learning how to work together.
She was not the only newcomer finding her place. Xio and Juliette are twin sisters with a strained relationship to repair, Deeba came in as a former dancer turned entrepreneur, and Natia came in with a med spa business and a family of her own. Malvina entered that group as the quieter of the new women, and the season will show whether that first impression holds.
What Malvina Brings to Season 15
Malvina describes herself as reserved, and she has put it in plain words: “Don’t mistake quiet for soft.” She is willing to stand up for herself, and she has said so directly. The reserved manner is real, and so is the willingness to push back.
Her no-nonsense approach to conflict could create friction in the group. That is the warning in her cast description, and it is the part of her story to watch. A person who says little and means it can unsettle a room full of strong voices, and the new cast has no shortage of those.
The business crossroads gives her a storyline that has nothing to do with group arguments. Dirty Pelican needs a decision, and the family plans wait on that decision. Viewers will see a new Housewife working through a real choice about work and family, not just reacting to the group.
Five new women join a show that spent Season 14 split in two, and the returning women have made peace with each other after years apart. Malvina walks into that rebuilt group as a newcomer with a family, a business, and a calm surface. How her quiet manner holds up when the group starts testing each other is the open question Season 15 will answer. Malvina posts updates on Instagram at @lifewithmalvina, and on TikTok at the same handle.
