19 Real Housewives Who Only Lasted One Season

They can't all be Bethanys and Vickis.   While The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Beverly Hills, Miami, New Jersey, Orange County, Potomac (?) and New York (RIP, D.C.) catapulted some women into superstardom and/or infamy, others sort of came in with a whimper and were quietly shown the door at season's end. It's easy to forget who was part of the Bravo's greatest legacy, so The Hollywood Gossip has created a refresher course. You're welcome. 1. Jules Wainstein Wainstein was excited to join season eight of ‘The Real Housewives of New York’ before it premiered, but when her marriage fell apart and she filed for divorce in June 2016, Wainstein decided to focus on her family instead of returning to the franchise. 2. Larsa Pippen Pippen is one of Kim Kardashian’s closest friends, but even that claim to fame couldn’t keep her on ‘The Real Housewives of Miami.’ Pippen was a bit too normal for Bravo’s liking, so she only starred in season one before getting the boot. 3. Claudia Jordan Jordan was an actress before joining season 9 of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ and found herself in hot water for accidentally confirming that Jamie Foxx (with whom she’s worked) and Katie Holmes were dating in the summer of 2016. Jordan batracked and denied she knew anything about the couple. “A lot of times, I get asked questions about celebrities — some I know, some I don’t — a lot of times we just give a safe kind of generic answer,” Jordan told Entertainment Tonight. “Sorry to not have this bombshell story, but I cannot confirm them.” 4. Cristy Rice Rice divorced NBA star Greg Rice around the time that ‘The Real Housewives of Miami’ had premiered in 2011. After lasting only one season, celeb gossip site The Dirty alleged that Rice was having an affair with Teo Hoffman, a wealthy Mormon business man with a family of his own. 5. Lydia McLaughlin Sweet, doe-eyed McLaughlin lasted all of one season ‘The Real Housewives of Orange County’ before voluntarily leaving. “I remember sitting on the couch [during the reunion special], having nothing to do with the conflict or the drama, but feeling so sad,” McLaughlin wrote in her 2015 book, ‘Beyond Orange County: A Housewives Guide to Faith and Happiness.’ “I sensed the Holy Spirit inside me saying, ‘You don’t have to be here.’ So I stood up and walked off set.” 6. Kathryn Edwards Edwards confirmed she was leaving ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ after just one season. Whether it was Bravo’s decision or hers, Edwards told People Magaizne that she walked away from the experience “with great feelings,” and no regrets. “It was definitely an adventure for me,” Edwards said. “I really am kind of a private person. It really just comes down to the time and what I value the most. I value those times with my husband and our friends. And I really didn’t want to miss another year. It’s nice to be able to live life.” View Slideshow

The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 6 Episode 14 Recap: It All Boils Down to This

Would Teresa Aprea and Nicole Napolitano carry on the tradition on The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 6 Episode 14, the final installment of 2014? By that, we mean exploding in epic fashion on a Real Housewives finale, as Teresa Giudice and her table-flipping ways so famously did in Season 1? The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 6 Cast Pics 1. The Real Housewives of New Jersey New Season 6 Cast Photo Say hello to The Real Housewives of New Jersey New for Season 6. They are: Dina Manzo, Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Amber Marchese, Nicole Mauriello and Teresa Aprea. The stage was set at Dina Manzo’s Project Ladybug charity fashion show, with THE RUMOR on everyone’s mind and the twins making sure Victoria is not invited. Teresa Aprea feels that “I deserve an apology” from her namesake. She says of Giudice, “Teresa, you just s–t all over my family. I would never do that to you. That’s why yours is getting destroyed now. Karma’s a bitch.” Teresa Giudice is headed to prison for 15 months for fraud, which you surely know whether you watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey online or not. Amber Marchese is a bit calmer, but after Jim Marchese caused such a fiasco in Boca Raton, she decides to go to the gala solo to avoid an encore. Smart thinking for her, but where’s the fun in that for us!? Giudice wonders why the twins haven’t reached out prior to the party, and muses that it’s because they love the drama, the cameras and the attention. Indeed. “I think we need to talk,” Teresa Aprea says to her Melissa and Nicole look on, telling her she should feel “ashamed” for repeating that rumor. Oooh, here we go! It is gonna be on now … maybe. 11 Teresa Giudice GIFs That Should Worry Her Fellow Inmates 1. Table Flipping Fiend Teresa Giudice is not gonna take any crap. Her table-flipping reputation will precede her in prison, thanks to The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 1. Teresa G. seems bent on keeping her cool. Aprea baits Giudice, but the latter doesn’t take it, and notes that Rino Aprea technically started the rumor since he told Victoria Gotti in the first place. Her co-stars bristle at that excuse. Teresa still stays measured, perhaps having been humbled by the past year, and eventually tells them, “I like you girls a lot… I wasn’t trying to hurt you.” They proceed to hug it out. Wow. Of course, the happy ending is foiled somewhat as we flash forward to October 2, when Joe and Teresa Giudice are sentenced to hard time in federal prison. “I feel like it’s not real,” said Jacqueline Laurita, who, along with husband Chris, learns the news with Teresa’s cousins, Kathy Wakile and Rosie Pierri. Nicole is unmoved, though. “You don’t mess with the legal system,” she says as The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 6 Episode 14 ends, “Choices you make in life, there are consequences.” Even for reality stars. 13 Classic Teresa Giudice Moments 1. Teresa Giudice: Table Flipping And now for the classic. Teresa’s face is priceless as she famously flips the table. Bravo. Bravo.
