Cheers to another great season of Real Housewives of Miami! The RHOM Season 7 finale aired on Thursday. Now, we wait in anticipation for the three-part reunion and it’s much-hyped bombshell. So much happened on RHOM this year, from weddings to divorces, emotional storms to literal hurricanes, planes to boats, and friendship ending fights to emotional bondings (sometimes within the same scene). And within the cast, there were winners and losers. How did we rank the RHOM cast members based on their performances in Season 7?
Who were the big winners of Real Housewives of Miami Season 7?
In every Real Housewives season, no matter the city, some cast members stand out more than others. There’s no one trait that makes a Real Housewives winner. It could be the wittiest comebacks, the most compelling storylines, the biggest fan base, the best wardrobe, or just winning at life.
Every RHOM cast member brought something to the table this year. But by the finale, four Housewives/”friends of” came out looking like the big winners. So, which cast members ultimately emerged victorious by the end of Real Housewives of Miami Season 7?
Kiki Barth
This season, Kiki Barth was as fabulous, witty, and on point as always. She also made great strides in her work-in-progress relationship with her dad. It made for a compelling season arc. And lead up to the finale, where Kiki celebrated her own cocktail that will earn proceeds for Haiti, while on stage with her father. Yes, the age joke on Adriana de Moura‘s cake was a low point, but Kiki owned up to it. Plus, her outfits reminded us she has one of the best Real Housewives wardrobes. Make this woman an official Real Housewife of Miami already!
Lisa Hochstein
Lisa Hochstein had a rough RHOM Season 6. It was hard to root for her sometimes. But as she finally wrapped up her divorce from Lenny Hochstein, Lisa was in a better mindset. She seemed much happier and lighter. Unfortunately, she was one of the RHOM stars piled on this year, but that made the audience sympathize with her more. And she was delightful and hilarious to watch. Sure, she’s still tardy to a ridiculous degree, but she’s working on it! Plus, this season made viewers decide they like Jody for her. He’s supportive but also holds her accountable. However, he’s gotta stop rage texting Lisa’s on-again frenemy Larsa Pippen.
Guerdy Abraira
The attempted takedowns, pile ons, and disrespect backfired! Because Guerdy Abraira is more beloved by RHOM fans than ever. Viewers cheered on her resilient attitude and her vulnerability during her recovery from cancer. She also made strides by unpacking her childhood trauma in therapy. Plus, Guerdy continues to have one of the healthiest marriages we’ve ever seen on Real Housewives. Also, she won best tagline and best dressed from us.
Marysol Patton
This might be a controversial placement! Marysol Patton is currently receiving backlash from viewers and some co-stars. She may be RHOM Season 7’s villain. But looking back on the season, Marysol is amongst the winners regarding her place on this show. She was the driving force behind the cast trip to Seville and the subsequent cruise trip. She was also the host of several of the season’s biggest events. In the finale, she threw a Christmas party with the best freebies and a Jill Zarin cameo. She’s clearly in a position of power on RHOM right now.
Who were the losers of RHOM Season 7
Real Housewives of Miami had a great Season 7. But some cast members came across worse than others. Whether they behaved badly, had storylines that felt flat, or failed to win viewers over. Here are the cast members who didn’t come out so hot by the end of RHOM Season 7. Better luck in Season 8, ladies.
Larsa Pippen
Larsa had her moments this season, and she remains the shade assassin. But looking back, her only real storyline was the feud with Lisa. Sure, she also moved into a new house. But redecorating/new home storylines fall flat with viewers. Larsa and Lisa’s feud could make great tv, but it also got repetitive. Larsa rehashed certain things and dragged it out. The obsession with Lisa following Marcus Jordan, for instance, wouldn’t end even when Lisa did unfollow him. Lisa also had her share of shade and insults to throw Larsa’s way. Ask most RHOM viewers, and they’ll say Larsa didn’t win this feud.
Stephanie Shojaee
I actually would like Stephanie Shojaee to come back for RHOM Season 8. She has potential. But she made a lot of rookie mistakes in her Real Housewives debut. Stephanie came into RHOM with a defensive attitude, and a need to prove she’s an incredibly wealthy and successful businesswoman. Ultimately, she just came across as trying too hard. By the end of the season, it still didn’t feel like she gelled with the other ladies. Also, I’m still not sure why she got first chair at the reunion.
Julia Lemigova
Julia Lemigova never really won viewers back after throwing a glass of water on Guerdy. It didn’t help that she broke their truce, didn’t adequately apologize, and was accused of microaggressions. This season, Julia appeared to blow off her longtime friends to hang out with the “cool girls,” and viewers weren’t having it. Also, even Andy Cohen called Julia out for her less-than-satisfactory response to one of her wife’s many controversies.
Which Real Housewives of Miami were not winners or losers in Season 7?
The Real Housewives of Miami are multifaceted women who don’t really fit into boxes. It’s one of the things that makes them a compelling cast. Looking back at the season, some of the Miami Housewives weren’t exactly losers. But it’s hard to say if they really had a winning season either.
Of course, there’s still a three-part reunion to come that could change or solidify things. But for now, here are the two RHOM cast members who are neither winners nor losers of Season 7.
Alexia Nepola
Our Cuban Barbie Alexia Nepola had a very rough season amidst her split (and subsequent reconciliations) with Todd Nepola. Lots of fans, and her friends, grew frustrated by the on and off relationship. That being said, even when she’s at a low point, Alexia reminds viewers why she’s a fighter to be reckoned with. Her feud with Stephanie proved this. And she keeps revealing more all these years later. Like that she has a sister and had a romance with an heir.
Adriana de Moura
On the one hand, Adriana is always entertaining. The Housewives weren’t fans, but lots of viewers laughed at her “I Love My Dog” song in the finale. She also a Harvard student now, adding yet another impressive accomplishment to her resume. However, Adriana seemed checked out this year. Sometimes, she read her co-stars like a book. Other times, she faltered. Calling Kiki “ratchet,” and the attempts to cover for it, was a fiasco. Overall, her official status as a RHOM Season 7 winner or loser likely depends on the reunion.
Real Housewives of Miami is available to stream on Peacock or on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
