Real Housewives rankings: Top 10 best stars from RHONY Bethenny Frankel to RHOBH Lisa Vanderpump

Real Housewives has created stars across the nation. See if you agree with our rankings, from RHONY Bethenny Frankel to RHOBH Lisa Vanderpump!

Real Housewives has reigned as our favorite reality TV show for years.

With the franchise growing around the world, we’ve ranked the best of the group, ranging from Real Housewives Of New York (RHONY) star Bethenny Frankel to Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills (RHOBH) charmer Lisa Vanderpump.

See if you agree with our top 10 rankings.

Best Real Housewives Of New York (RHONY) stars

Bethenny Frankel #1: When it comes to RHONY, Bethenny Frankel has shown her endurance through good times (romance) and tragedy (the heartbreaking death of her boyfriend). We love the Skinnygirl entrepreneur’s wit and intelligence.

Please pass the popcorn!

But while the Skinnygirl entrepreneur is fabulous, it’s hard to forget #2: Countess Luann de Lesseps. Oh, Countess! From her fondness for titles and proper etiquette (we learned how to talk with a chauffeur) to her delight in Tom (really, isn’t it all about Tom?), Countess Lou always kept us entertained.

Best Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills (RHOBH) stars

Although some might feel that #3: Lisa Vanderpump caused RHOBH to go to the dogs (sorry, not sorry, for the pun), we love this hilarious lady for her devotion to animals, sense of humor, and intense ambition, whether she’s hiring new staff at her restaurant or expanding her animal empire!

Kyle Richards #4: Long before Kyle charmed us on Real Housewives, she won our hearts as a very young actress on Little House on the Prairie. A smart addition to RHOBH, Kyle has fascinated viewers with her acerbic wit and insights.

Best Real Housewives Of Orange County (RHOC) star

Vicki Gunvalson #5 isn’t exactly the most lovable Real Housewives star, but the Old Girl (OG) of the OC (Orange County) definitely is the most memorable! The businesswoman is known for saying exactly what she thinks, and while cancergate will never be forgotten, Vicki has sometimes shown her softer, kinder side, as with her grandchildren.

Best Real Housewives Of New Jersey (RHONJ) star

It’s impossible to ignore #6: Teresa Giudice. Taking the term “drama queen” to a new level, Teresa has fascinated audiences whether she’s headed for prison (gulp) or telling her co-stars exactly how she feels at a reunion (now that he’s a new dad, Andy Cohen may want to cover his ears!).

Best Real Housewives of Atlanta (RHOA) star

Lucky #7? Hello, Nene Leakes! This Real Housewives star has done everything from acting to authoring, as well as fashion designing. And whenever she’s on a talk show, such as Watch What Happens Live, we know that her outspoken personality means she’ll spill some tasty tea.

When it comes to talking about outspoken stars on the series, however, it’s only fair to mention one of the newest…

Best Real Housewives Of Dallas (RHOD) stars

#8: LeeAnne Locken. Dallas is famous for big hair, big steaks, and…LeeAnne. This impulsive former carnival worker stole the show repeatedly with memorable quotes such as “I’m a True Texan, no bull but all horns.”

#9: Brandi Redmond. Whether the former Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader is talking about poop, annoying LeeAnne, or cooing at her new baby (so precious!), Brandi Redmond has added charm and entertainment to the franchise.

Best Real Housewives of Potomac (RHOP) stars

#10: Karen Huger. Let’s be honest: We watch Real Housewives for relaxing entertainment, and that means stars who bring drama. Karen fulfilled that demand with the drama over proving that she really lived in her mansion rather than a furnished apartment, as the Atlanta Star noted.
