‘Real Housewives’ Quotes That’ll Always Be Funny

by Kristie Rohwedder

If the earsplitting screamfest that was the three-part Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 reunion was your first journey to the land of the Real Housewives, first of all, welcome to the fold. (Feel free to take a pull off that Shotski over by the door. Oh, and be sure to give Giggy the Pom a gentle pat on the noggin for good luck.) Now, you may find what I am about to say hard to believe, but I will have you know that this franchise is not just people hollering at each other about airport shuttle rides, Fireball whiskey, and Mapquest directions. When they aren’t serving up generous portions of gnarly feuds and brutal accusations, these shows also deliver genuinely delightful, silly moments. And that is partially thanks to the funny things the Real Housewives have said in front of the Bravo cameras over the years.

Since the mid aughts, the Real Housewives of the Bravoverse have been a constant source of amazing and instantly quotable lines, and frankly, I couldn’t be more grateful for them. My TV just wouldn’t feel complete without moments like Sonja Morgan shrugging into the camera about her teeth falling out, you know? These shows and their stars are truly the gifts that never stop giving.
