138. Katie Ginella, The Real Housewives of Orange County
Per usual, we typically need to see more than one season to place a first-time Housewife higher on our list. But Katie came in swinging during RHOC's 18th season, immediately going up against veteran Housewife Heather Dubrow. It takes a brave woman to call B.S. on Ms. Fancypants.
137. Sara Al Madani, The Real Housewives of Dubai
Sara's positive, enlightened outlook on life was certainly pleasant, but didn't provide for much drama (besides that one time she offered co-star Caroline Brooks some not-so-well received parenting advice). However, the tech entrepreneur shattered stereotypes of what it means to be a modern Muslim woman in the Middle East and for that we applaud her.
135-136. Rachel Fuda & Danielle Cabral, The Real Housewives of New Jersey
RHONJ's season 13 newbies certainly fit the mold of your typical Garden State Housewife and quickly found themselves in a season-long fight over literally nothing that Andy Cohen deemed pointless at the reunion. The former friends unfortunately didn't bring much more substance during season 14.
134. Larsa Pippen, The Real Housewives of Miami
Larsa didn't make a big impression on season one before leaving the series. When Peacock revived RHOM for season four in 2021, her whole storyline was about being the ex-BFF of Kim Kardashian. (and selling sexy feet pics on OnlyFans...)
133. Ana Quincoces, The Real Housewives of Miami
Ana followed up her one season as a Bravolebrity by competing on season 12 of Next Food Network Star in 2016. She didn't make it there, either.
132. Joyce Giraud de Ohoven, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Unfortunately, she was nothing more than a punching bag for Brandi Glanville. Plus, her tagline celebrating the icky notion that you can never be too skinny was gross.
131. Cindy Barshop, The Real Housewives of New York City
Cindy was supposed to be the new Bethenny Frankel. Cindy was no Bethenny Frankel.
130. Caroline Brooks, The Real Housewives of Dubai
Brooks' gift to season one of RHODubai was a cameo from Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Phaedra Parks, who popped up on one episode to get all the tea on the co-stars' drama. However, Brooks did cause a lot of unnecessary drama during season one (much of which occurred while she was a little too tipsy).
129. Lisa Wu-Hartwell, RHOA
Lisa was a perfectly fine Housewife, but we don't want just fine. Not when she's sharing the screen with the likes of NeNe and Sheree Whitfield.
128. Tiffany Hendra, RHOD
Tiffany never really had a storyline of her own in the first season of Dallas. Unless trying to convince her Keith Urban-lite husband that living in Texas was a good idea is your idea of riveting television. Still, it was nice to see her whenever she showed up for LeeAnne.
127. Brit Eady, The Real Housewives of Atlanta
Brit was polarizing from the moment she joined season 16 (mostly due to her unique voice). But she soon sealed her fate as a one-and-done Housewife when she skipped filming the reunion and took legal action against Bravo after costar Kenya Moore showed alleged NSFW photos of Brit on the show.
The kicker? Brit later claimed she was not, in fact, the woman in said photos.
126. Lizzie Rovsek, RHOC
Another one of RHOC's one-and-done Housewives. However, she has continued to pop up...but not necessarily contribute anything.
125. Kathryn Edwards, RHOBH
We all cheered when Kathryn took on the infamous Faye Resnick as soon as she made her RHOBH debut...but that's basically the only thing she did.
124. Keiarna Stewart, The Real Housewives of Potomac
Keiarna is certainly a loveable side character on RHOP, but with so many big personalities in the cast, she sometimes got lost in the mix.
123. Cary Deuber, The Real Housewives of Dallas
Cary proved herself willing to stand up to the loudest of voices—ahem, LeeAnne Locken—and then, confusingly, befriend her.
122. D'Andra Simmons, RHOD
Her willingness to call one-time BFF LeeAnne on her BS, as well as the introduction to her delightful mother Mama Dee, are why D'Andra is ranked as high as she is.
121. Lydia McLaughlin, RHOC
Lydia's biggest storyline her first time around was trying to get her mom to stop smoking weed. Buzzkill! And her return to the franchise four seasons later did nothing to change our opinion of her, though her willingness to go toe-to-toe with Shannon Beador was admirable.
120. Claudia Jordan, RHOA
Claudia dared to take on NeNe and lived to tell the tale. Unfortunately, she couldn't tell it on camera because she was given the boot after just one season.
119. Kim Fields, RHOA
Kim never really belonged on RHOA. She knew it, her co-stars knew it, and they all acted accordingly. It was never a good fit, but it was still Kim Fields on RHOA. Who would've thought?
118. Lesa Milan, The Real Housewives of Dubai
We'll never forget when Lesa dropped thousands of dollars on ice to cool down her pool in the 100-degree Dubai heat. Iconic ice moment aside, the businesswoman and mother proved to be a force to be reckoned with and never backed down from a fight with enemy Caroline Stanbury. It seems Stanbury has met her match, and we can't look away.
117. Angela Oakley, The Real Housewives of Atlanta
We enjoyed Angela's addition to season 16, mostly because of her scene-stealing husband, NBA legend Charles Oakley.
Oh, and the mystery of her real age.
116. Kelli Ferrell, The Real Housewives of Atlanta
RHOA's pint-sized season 16 addition was a needed breath of fresh air. Plus, she BROUGHT the lewks.
We can't wait for more of Kelli.
115. Racquel Chevremont, The Real Housewives of New York City
The art dealer was a fine addition to RHONY's diverse mix of women during season 15. She even gave Jenna Lyons a run for her money as the fiercest lebian Housewife in the Big Apple.
114. Julia Lemigova, The Real Housewives of Miami
The first LGBT Housewife ever cast on a Housewives series, Julia is truly fascinating. From being married to tennis legend Martina Navratilova and raising dozens of animals on a Miami farm, to her epic Hamptons hangover, Julia has everything a good Housewife needs. She also didn't shy away from opening up about the death of her baby son, pulling on our heartstrings and making us feel even closer to her. We love us some Julia.
