Rumors are flying about cast changes for the new season of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," and according to a report on Friday, Dayna Devon is the front-runner.

According to those sources, Taylor Armstrong (nee Shana Hughes) and one other unnamed cast member are on the chopping block of the Bravo show. Meanwhile, Devon has been contacting "multiple" times by a casting company regarding joining "RHOBH" for the next season.

Armstrong has been with "RHOBH" since season one. The only "housewife" to be dumped as a regular, thus far, is Camille Grammer, but according to Wikipedia, she is returning as a "friend."

Dayna Devon, 42, was the co-anchor, with Mark McGrath, of the television show "Extra" before Mario Lopez took over in 2008. She joined Extra in 1999 as the weekend anchor and then became the weekday anchor in 2003. As of January 2013 Devon is a cast member of the new TLC reality show "Plastic Wives," which looks at women who are each married to popular Hollywood cosmetic surgeons, and their seeming obsessive over plastic surgery.

To be clear, Devon is married to famed Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Brent Moelleken. They have two children, a daughter, Emmi-Reese, born on Sept. 2, 2005, and a son, Cole Brent, born on Jan. 5, 2007.

In addition to Devon, Penny Lancaster, 41, and Rod Stewart's third wife -- as well as the mother to two-year-old Aiden Patrick Stewart -- is also a strong candidate for one of the open slots on "RHOBH." Naturally, this is assuming all the rumors are true.
