According to the Herald Sun's Confidential, Susie McLean has joined the cast of the Real Housewives of Melbourne for season 3.
Apparently, the news broke out when her friends congratulated her for joining the successful reality franchise after she stepped out at an event.
McLean was asked to pose for a picture with Pettifleur Berenger at a social event but declined as she had not yet formally met her.
While McLean has remained tight-lipped, it seems she will be part of filming for season three, which began last week. According to sources, McLean is very good friends with Chyka Keebaugh.
Susie is the ex-wife of former St Kilda Football Club president Rod Butterss. Roderick
"Rod" Butterss is an Australian investor, with stakes in property development and the recruiting industry. The two married in February 2009 but separated in July 2009.

Another report from Confidential claims that Deborah Miller (pictured left) is or was 'in talks' with producers to join the cast. Miller runs the Miss Universe Australia pageant and has been responsible for launching the careers of Jesinta Campbell, Rachael Finch and Scherri-Lee Biggs.
As we reported, Grant Hackett's ex-wife Candice Alley (pictured right), was also in talks with the show's producers to become a new cast member. However it looks like McLean has taking that spot, unless the other ladies join the show in a reduced role aka 'friends of the housewives.'
No word if McLean is replacing someone or if she will be an addition to the current cast.
