Xio Cammarota joins The Real Housewives of New Jersey in Season 15 as one of five new full-time Housewives, and she arrives with a twin sister on the same cast, a new business of her own, and a family she has built over twelve years of marriage. Her full name is Xiomara Cammarota, and she goes by Xio. 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. Xio left her job at her sister’s makeup academy to launch her own marketing firm, she is working to repair a strained relationship with her twin sister Juliette, and she shares a nine-year-old son with her husband Jerry. The rest of this profile covers who she is, how the business started, who her family is, and what she brings to the new season.
Who Is Xio Cammarota
Xio Cammarota was born in Puerto Rico, and she now lives in New Jersey. The town where she lives has not been confirmed, and no reliable listing gives one. Her Puerto Rican background is part of how she introduces herself, and it is one of the first facts viewers will hear about her.
Her age is reported two different ways, and neither figure can be treated as settled. A report from October 2026 put her age at 46, and a later report from November 2026, quoting Xio herself, put her age at 47. She said, “This season I am 47 years old.” No date of birth has been published, so the two reports cannot be reconciled from the information available. We will update this page as soon as our research team has the latest data.
The twin ages make the conflict easy to see. Her twin sister Juliette Collazo is reported as 39, and twins share a birth date, so Xio and Juliette cannot be 47 and 39 at the same time. No date of birth has been published for either sister, and no report has explained the gap. Until one is published, this page gives both reported ages and treats the question as unconfirmed.
Xio is one of five new full-time cast members in Season 15, alongside Malvina Blloshmi, 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.
The full cast was announced on October 21, 2026. Filming began in spring 2026, after the show’s return was announced in March 2026, and filming wrapped by August 4, 2026. The show had been off air for more than two years, and Season 14 had ended without a reunion in August 2024. Xio filmed her first season inside that return, and she had no earlier reality television credit confirmed before it.
Her Career and Marketing Firm
Xio is launching her own marketing firm. The name of the firm has not been given, and no list of its services has been published. The move itself is the story: she left steady work to build something under her own name.
Before the move, Xio worked alongside her sister at the Artist Makeup Academy, the New Jersey makeup school Juliette founded and runs. Xio recently quit that job to start the firm. She has described the decision in plain terms, saying it was time to bank on herself and that it is never too late to start over.
One of her firm’s first clients is a familiar face. Fellow newcomer Natia Rufolo, a friend of six years, uses the firm, and the two have travelled together and shared the day-to-day life of raising young children. The friendship came first, and the business link followed it.
The firm is new, and the season will show whether it takes hold. Xio has not said how many clients she has, what the firm charges, or when it will be fully up and running. What she has said is that she chose the move herself, after years of working inside her sister’s business.
Family With Jerry and Gianluca
Xio has been married to Jerry for 12 years. The two are high-school sweethearts, and they have been together since they were 16. Jerry’s surname has not been given, and no report has stated it.
Their son is Gianluca, age 9. Gianluca is the couple’s only child, and the three of them live in New Jersey. Xio’s family life with Jerry and Gianluca sits at the center of her story on the show.
Twelve years of marriage and a nine-year-old son give Xio a settled home life, and the new firm sits next to it. She is starting a business while raising a child, and the season will show how the two fit together. The firm is new, the marriage is not, and the season follows both.
Beyond the facts above, little has been confirmed about Xio and Jerry’s early years together. No wedding date has been given, and no proposal story has been published. This page will add to the record only when new facts are confirmed.
The Twin Dynamic With Juliette
Juliette Collazo is Xio’s twin sister, and the two are new cast members together. Juliette is the founder and chief executive of the Artist Makeup Academy, the school where Xio used to work. The sisters share a workplace history, a family, and now a television show.
The sisters are opposites in how they describe themselves. Juliette has said she is the storm to Xio’s calm, and the two have talked about that split openly. Xio watches first and speaks second, and Juliette takes charge first and sorts the rest out later.
The relationship between the sisters is strained. The two were once close, and they are working to rebuild the relationship now. No report has given a specific cause for the strain, and this page does not guess at one. The repair work is one of the storylines Season 15 follows.
Finding her voice with her sister is part of that work. Xio has said she is learning to stand her ground, both with Juliette and inside the new group of women around her. The season will show how far that goes.
What Xio Brings to Season 15
Xio calls herself the observer of the group. She likes to watch before she speaks, and she counts that habit as a strength. The habit sets her apart in a cast full of strong voices.
She has also said she felt nervous at first. Joining the veterans was a lot of pressure, in her words, and she came into the cast through her sister’s circle. She started the season knowing the group through Juliette, not on her own.
Three threads run through her season. The firm has to get off the ground, the relationship with Juliette has to be repaired, and Xio has to find her voice in the group. All three ask the same thing of her: to stand her ground.
Xio posts updates on Instagram at @xiosworld. Season 15 premieres in December 2026, and the full season will show whether the observer finds her voice, the firm finds its footing, and the twins find their way back to each other.
