What does it take to become a Real Housewives legend?
Expert shade delivery? The ability to manufacture and deliver the tea? A biting wit? Just being real? Bravo’s reality juggernaut has gifted viewers with more than 100 Real Housewives stars across cities all over America, and, well, some are just better at being a Bravolebrity than others.
For every long-running Housewife, like Kyle Richards, there’s a Carlton Gebbia, a one-and-done Real Housewives cast member. But each Housewife has left viewers a little something from their journey, whether it’s an iconic line, a beloved reaction GIF or a lesson on what not to do.
In honor of the season 10 finale of RHOBH on Wednesday, Aug. 26, we’re bringing back our of every full-timer from Real Housewives of Orange County, Beverly Hills, New York City, New Jersey, Atlanta, Dallas, Miami, Potomac and, yes, even D.C. to find out where newbie Garcelle Beauvais ranks after her first full season clutching that diamond. (Sorry, Sutton Stracke, but no “Friends of” allowed. Better luck next time!)
