Her second, the 14th season of RHOC , followed Gina as she opened up about her marriage problems, was arrested, fought with quite a few ladies and dyed her hair.
And yet, she's still kind of just there. The America's Next Top Model veteran picked up a peach for seasons 11 and 12, but never really made an impression in the world of RHOA, aside from being pregnant for what felt like her entire tenure.
Points for that epic read of Marlo Hampton while in Tokyo, though. From peacekeeper in her first season to unrelenting complaints about a thrown cake and unfounded claims of anti-Semitism in her second and last season, we're not sure we've ever seen a quicker Real Housewives fall from grace than this one. While it was nice to see some diversity in the lily-white O.

All we remember about Karent is that she was a dentist and none of her co-stars seemed to like her at all. However, she sure did deliver her fair share of drama.

The women who said or did them? The audience, who run meme accounts and Etsy shops promoting them? Or Bravo itself, which he points out keeps a tight grip on what aspects of their fame the Housewives are allowed to monetize.
None of these questions, as central as they are to probing late-stage capitalism, are given the weight in society that Moylan allows in this book. Housewives are often watched and discussed with the same fervor as sports, but are looked down upon because they are primarily the purview of women and gay men.
I found that attitude empowering. These women are neither girlbosses nor villains. They are Real Housewives. The Housewives is available everywhere books are sold.
