A major sensation since its premiere in March of 2006, Real Housewives quickly took the world by storm with the introduction of its Orange County-based series, drawing in a large fanbase of loyal viewers. With its cult-following, the reality show quickly spawned into a series of popular spinoffs, including New York, Atlanta, New Jersey, Potomac, and Dallas.

While each and every offshoot of Real Housewives seeks to offer fans a personal, unique look into the lavish lifestyles and relationships between women, it's the ensuing drama which most definitely keeps viewers interested.

While there are some stars who choose to remain closeted about their affections for the show, there are plenty of famous viewers who have loudly and proudly proclaim their allegiance to the Real Housewives.
