Christina Applegate was invited to join 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' a decade ago.
Christina Applegate rejected a chance to join the reality show
The 52-year-old actress has revealed that she rejected the chance to join the hit reality TV series.
Christina said on the 'Messy' podcast: "I was asked to be a Housewife for Beverly Hills.
"They asked me to be one ten years ago, and what's funny is I ended up becoming really good friends with the executive producer of it because our kids went to school together and he's like, 'Oh yeah, we asked you.'"
Christina ultimately feels she wouldn't have been suited to the show's format.
She explained: "I wouldn't have shown up to any dinners. I would have been in my sweatpants and I'd be laying in bed. What fun is that? No. I would be the worst Housewife anyway."
Despite this, Christina actually loves to watch reality TV.
The actress said: "In the two years that I have been watching from my bed, I have probably watched 300 hours of reality television."
Christina was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis - a degenerative neurological condition - in 2021, and the actress recently revealed that she prefers to stay at home and deal with her symptoms in private.
She told ABC News: "That’s kind of how I’m dealing with it, by not going anywhere. Because I don’t want to do it. It’s hard."
Multiple sclerosis can cause muscle weakness and communication problems, and Christina admitted that she's "reminded" of her condition every day.
The movie star said: "I’m never going wake up and go, ‘This is awesome.’ I’m just going to tell you that - like, it’s not going to happen.
"I wake up and I’m reminded of it every day. So, it’s never going to happen. But I might get to a place where I will function a little bit better."
