“The Real Housewives of Miami” Stars Are Getting Candid About Their Personal Lives

Alexia Nepola, Larsa Pippen, Lisa Hochstein, "The Real Housewives of Miami"

The Real Housewives of Miami, which is dubbed by many as “the best Housewives franchise,” is currently bringing on all the drama in season 6. It's no surprise, though, considering how much of a whirlwind season 5 was. It was full of ups and downs for the ladies of the sun-soaked 305. As scandal surrounded Lisa Hochstein’s marriage, Alexia Nepola let it all off her chest (even if it didn’t quite make sense), tensions between Dr. Nicole Martin and Larsa Pippen fueled and so, so much more took over the lives of these nine women.

Ever since the franchise returned with Season 4 after an eight-year hiatus it has been bigger, better, and certainly louder than ever with an incredible cast of strong-willed women.

If you haven't been keeping up with season 6, first of all, you totally should be. Second, here's everything you should know about it.

What's so special about "The Real Housewives of Miami"?

The show has received rave reviews from Bravoholics, particularly for its electric authenticity and IRL friendships. “Many of the Bravo franchises are filled with fake storylines and toxicity, but Peacock is providing what Housewives fans love most: authenticity and escapism,” HuffPost guest writer Michael Arceneaux wrote. Meanwhile, TVLine contributor Claire Franken agreed, writing, “In other franchises, we have sprinter vans, psychic readings and stuffy formal dinners with seating assignments. In Miami we have OnlyFans photoshoots, witchy healing ceremonies and pool parties with flamingo floaties. The Real Housewives of Miami is fresh, it’s real and my god, it’s entertaining.”

We certainly agree, and love keeping up with the cast on and off-air. While the cast is currently on hiatus, that hasn’t stopped their lives from running rampant, in both good and bad ways. Keep reading to catch up with your favorite Housewives and learn all of the Season 6 deets below!

Where did we leave off in season 5?

Lisa's ex-husband Lenny Hochstein proposed to his girlfriend Katharina Mazepa — the very woman he cheated on Lisa with. Apparently, "on top of an ancient pirate cave, overlooking the sunset over breathtaking Es Vedrá, he asked to steal me away forever..." or at least that's what Katharina (30 years Lenny's junior) captioned her Instagram post announcing the engagement.

Lisa was quick to respond to the engagement, posting to her Instagram story, "congrats to my current husband and his mistress on their engagement." She also responded to a rather rude comment from her (soon-to-be former) mother in law. Lisa and Lenny have yet to settle the details of their divorce, and the engagement comes just 14 months after the explosive affair broke the news cycle.

RHONY alum Bethenny Frankel shared her opinions on the engagement, sharing to TikTok, “seeing pictures of Lenny Hochstein getting engaged is like being on the checkout line and seeing that bargain basket bin of, like, 75 cent and three dollar things where you might find something but usually don’t" alongside the hashtags “#housewives #engaged #savage."

Bethenny continued, asserting that she’s “Team Lisa Hochstein all day...People named Lenny Hochstein and their engagements aren’t sexy. … When [Lisa] and her hot guy get engaged, I’ll actually watch the entire post.”

TBH, we're moving on from Lisa's past with Lenny and looking towards the future — and it seems like she is as well. Today, Lisa is dating a new man, Jody Glidden. Cheers to that. 🥂

Unfortunately, in May Guerdy shared her breast cancer diagnosis on social media, something that has already played a role in season 6.  Geurdy shaved her head in preparation for chemo treatment, captioning an Instagram post, “Even though this is a hard journey, I’m thankful for everything in my life including this humbling experience which is making me even stronger.” In June, on a RHOM cast trip to Mexico City in support of Adriana's performance at Mexico City Pride, Guerdy required medical attention, though it is not known for what.

Season 6 revealed that Guerdy is technically cancer-free (!!) but that she is actively trying to prevent reoccurrence. 

Similar to Guerdy, Julia’s wife, 59-time grand slam winner Martina Navratilova, was diagnosed with breast cancer and throat cancer in early January 2023. Fortunately, Martina announced the end of her cancer in June, tweeting: “After a day full of tests at Sloan Kettering, I got the all clear! Thank you to all the doctors, nurses, proton and radiation magicians, etc- what a relief:) #byebyecancer :) and yes, #f*ckcancer !!!”

Beyond these awful diagnoses, there have been plenty of other drama off-camera, most notably Larsa’s new beau Marcus Jordan. Now, if you’re thinking: “The son of the greatest basketball player of all time Michael Jordan?!” you’d be correct.

Yup — Larsa is dating her ex-husband Scottie Pippen’s former Chicago Bulls teammate and ex-best friend Michael Jordan’s son. While the 17-year age gap is NBD (after all, they’re both adults), it’s a little odd that she’s dating a man she met when he was just 7 years old and she was 23. This news stirred up the sports community, with many rushing to the defense of the disapproving basketball legend.

Who’s in the RHOM Season 6 cast?

The season 6 cast includes returning housewives Guerdy Abraira, Lisa Hochstein, Julia Lemigova, Dr. Nicole Martin, Alexia Nepola, and Larsa Pippen. Kiki Barth, Adriana de Moura, and Marysol Patton have also returned to this interesting season as friends.

Where will RHOM Season 6 available to watch? 

Season 6 premiered on November 1, 2023, and continues to air episodes on Bravo weekly. If you're not available to watch it on its initial release date, it can also be streamed the next day exclusively on Peacock. If you're all caught up on this season, you can also watch the past two reboot seasons of the show!

Everybody raise your Kir Royale cocktails because Emily in Paris has been renewed for season 5! (And it looks like she might be trading some of her cocktails for espresso). The official Emily in Paris & Netflix Instagram accounts made the announcement on September 16 with a video of Lily Collins sipping some espresso on a rooftop.

"There's no place like Rome," Lily says with a wink. And, to be frank, we have to agree. I didn't think Emily in Parisseason 4 (or its fashion) could get any better after that Part 1 ending, but taking our favorite Parisians to Rome turned out to be a fantastic move — and not just because it introduced us to Marcello.

Keep reading for everything you need to know about Emily in Paris season 5 — including who is (and isn't) returning.

Is there a season 5 for Emily in Paris?

Yes, Emily in Paris season 5 is coming to Netflix. "We’re thrilled with the incredible response to this season of Emily in Paris and excited to return for a fifth to continue Emily’s adventures in Rome and Paris!" creator Darren Star tells TUDUM.

The renewal comes as no surprise considering season 4 held Netflix Global Top 10's top spot and received almost 20 million views in four days.

When is Emily in Paris season 5 coming out?

Emily in Paris Season 5 Release Date

We don't have an official release date yet, but considering seasons 1 through 3 only had a year in between them, we could see Emily in Paris season 5 in 2025. (Season 4 suffered a delay due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes).

What is Emily in Paris season 5 about?

Giulia Parmigiani/Netflix

Emily in Paris Season 5 Plot

The Emily in Paris season 4 finale changed everything when Emily decided to stay in Rome and head up an Italian office for Agence Grateau. But, don't worry French fans. Darren Star promises we'll see her in the City of Love again, telling The Wrap, "definitely we’re not leaving Paris behind.”

And after Gabriel realized how much he wants to be with Emily in the season 4 finale, it looks like season 5 will feature even more of the show's signature relationship drama. "I think [Gabriel] realized that he wasn’t even aware of the fact that [Emily] left and how disconnected they’d become," Star continues. "He’s met the guy; he realizes the circumstances under which they met, and I think he just didn’t understand how fast things had moved between them."

But as much as we love to see Emily and Gabriel together, Lily Collins is excited to explore a Emily and Marcello. “Marcello is a whole other adventure that we want for Emily because we ultimately want Emily to be able to have a better work/life balance,” she tells TUDUM. “We want to have Emily be able to smile without condition. We want to see her beyond her vacay mode. And he comes at that perfect time.”

Who's in the cast of Emily in Paris season 5?

Emily in Paris Season 5 Cast

You can expect a lot of your favorites to return for Emily in Paris season 5, like Lily Collins, Eugenio Franceschini, Lucas Bravo, Lucien Laviscount, Ashley Park, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Samuel Arnold, and Bruno Gouery. I hope we see Camille Razat too!

Summer Fridays

2. Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm

Dieux is one of my go-to skincare brands for effective products that still take it easy on my sensitive skin.

Get ready to "eat your heart out" because Yellowjackets season 3 is on its way and Showtime picked the most surprising release date: Valentine's Day! Now, I have to admit I don't usually pair romance with feral survival in the woods but I'm more than happy to make an exception this time around. And I'm assuming if you're reading this, you've already seen season 2, but just in case...Yellowjackets season 2 spoilers ahead.

Keep reading for everything we know about Yellowjackets season 3, coming in 2025.

Is Yellowjackets going to have a season 3?

Yellowjacket Season 3 Plot

Yes Yellowjackets season 3 is on its way, and thanks to this release date announcement, we get a first look at some footage from new episodes. This installment follows our favorite mix of young adults as they fight for survival after a cuh-razy season 2 finale that killed Nat (and shocked fans). The finale was so wild that I really don't know where they'll go from here, but if there's one thing Yellowjackets knows how to do it's surprise us.

The new season will feature 10 episodes, and one thing creator Ashley Lyle teases is that the new season will merge the characters' teen selves with their adult selves. “Some of it is really character-based; some of it is more literal,” she tells Vanity Fair. "There are a couple of big things in this season that were in the very initial pitches before we even took it out to networks, that we’ve finally got the chance to execute and to play out."

"How do you change while you are in your core, in your essence, the same person you always were?" she adds. "How much are you hiding that, and how long are you able to do that, is a question that we’re playing with this season."

And for Nat, Ashley admits that looks a little different. "We all have a future self who has died, and we don’t know how that happened," she continues. "But that doesn’t make who we are now any less vital. In our minds, that is also Natalie’s story. She has a lot of life to live and a lot of story to tell. And the fact that there is a future self that met a tragic end is really the most universal thing that we could probably do on a television show."

Where can I watch season 3 of Yellowjackets?

Yellowjacket Season 3 Release Date

Yellowjackets season 3 will premiere on Sunday, February 16 on Showtime but good news for Paramount+ subscribers! Anyone who has the Paramount+ with Showtime plan can watch the first two episodes on February 14. How romantic.

You can also watch the first season of the show (which premiered in 2021) on Netflix now!

Who's in Yellowjackets season 3?

Yellowjacket Season 3 Cast

The cast of Yellowjackets season 3 features returning favorites like Melanie Lynskey, Christina Ricci, Tawny Cypress, Lauren Ambrose, Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sophie Thatcher, Samantha Hanratty, Courtney Eaton, Liv Hewson, Steven Krueger, Warren Kole, Kevin Alves, Sarah Desjardins, Simone Kessell, and Elijah Wood.

This year, they're also joined by Joel McHale and Hilary Swank.

Our favorite dancing queens (Meryl Streep included) might be returning to the big screen for a third encore of Mamma Mia! and we’re already rewatching the first two movie musicals in preparation.

In an interview with Deadline in May of 2023, Mamma Mia! franchise creator and producer Judy Craymer said a third movie musical is in "earliest stages." She also shared that she has come up with a way to bring Meryl Streep back again.

"I don't want to over-egg it," she said of the unofficial news, "but I know there's a trilogy there…and I do think Meryl should come back, and if the script is right, she would, I think, because she really loved playing Donna."

"Of course I want to do it," Streep said during the 2024 Cannes Film Festival (via Deadline). Sounds promising to us!

Is Mamma Mia 3 happening?

Universal Pictures

Yes, Mamma Mia 3 is in its early planning stages! Christine Baranski just told The Hollywood Reporter that she's met with producer Judy Kramer, and that Kramer has plans for the third movie. "She gave me the narrative plotline of how it’s going to happen," Baranski says. "That’s all I can say! But, it’s not like, 'Oh, I wish it could happen!' Judy Kramer makes things happen. She made number two happen, and it was a phenomenal hit. I wouldn’t put it past Judy Kramer to get everybody back together."

Universal Pictures

A third installation was first mentioned way back in 2020, during a Collider interview with Mamma Mia! star Amanda Seyfried. Seyfried said she was on board — and at the time, she thought the rest of the star-studded cast would be too.

"Listen, every single person in that movie would say yes in a heartbeat because we want to hang out with each other," Seyfried told Collider at the time. "That's what we talked about last time, like did we ever think that we'd end up here again on an Island in Croatia?"

When will Mamma Mia 3 come out?

Universal Pictures

We don't have an official answer about when to expect this highly anticipated sequel. The project is in the "earliest stages," according to creator and producer, Judy Craymer. Cher also revealed to Entertainment Weekly that everyone is "talking about it," but she doesn't "know when they're going to do it."

Has casting information been shared about Mamma Mia 3?

Jonathan Prime/Universal Studios

While nothing's been made official, Amanda Seyfried just said something that made my heart skip a beat. She told ABC News she loves Sabrina Carpenter's music and dropped this admission: "If Sabrina Carpenter wants to play my daughter, I’ll make it happen."

But before she admitted that, the actress said something else that made me raise my eyebrows. "Everybody says it’s gonna happen, but I mean, I haven’t seen a script."

Cher is also eager to return to the beloved franchise and is rooting for Meryl to make an appearance again. "I keep saying, 'Meryl, you've got to come back,'" she said (via Entertainment Weekly). She also said she's told her, "'It'll be fun. You'll have a good time. You'll be able to sing.'"

I don't know what it'll take, but hope someone gets a script in Amanda Seyfried, Cher, and Meryl Streep's hands ASAP!

What is the first Mamma Mia about?

Universal Pictures

The first film follows Donna (Streep) and Sophie (Seyfried) as mother and daughter living on a remote Greek island. When Sophie is about to marry Sky (Dominic Cooper), she sets out to learn who her real father is after discovering it could be one of three men (played by Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard, and Colin Firth).

Who does the second Mamma Mia follow?

Universal Pictures / NBCUniversal

Mamma Mia 2takes viewers back to 1979, where young Donna (Lily James) embarks on a series of adventures throughout Europe following her Oxford University graduation. On her journeys, she makes the acquaintances of Harry, Bill and Sam – the latter whom she falls in love with. In the present day, pregnant Sophie dreams of renovating a taverna while reuniting with her mother's old friends and boyfriends on a Greek island island.

TBH, we’re pretty happy that Mamma Mia! is far from over, and we can’t wait to see what the franchise has in store for us next. Stay updated on all the latest entertainment news with Brit + Co.

There's nothing ~normal~ about how much we love Normal People's Paul Mescal & Daisy Edgar-Jones. While it turns out we're not getting a Normal People season 2 (yet), the two actors are starring in some of 2024's biggest blockbusters (Twisters and Gladiator II, namely), and we've been soaking up their presences ever since.

Paul recently exhibited his ongoing friendship with Daisy at the Gladiator II premiere in Los Angeles. While he approached Brittany Broski on the red carpet for an interview, he recognized her from her recent 'Royal Court' interview with Daisy:

"You were with Daisy!" he chimed in excitingly. We just love this power duo!

Enda Bowe/Hulu

Daisy Edgar-Jones also revealed that she's remained incredibly close to Paul Mescal after their time on Hulu's Normal People. "Paul is one of my lifetime best friends," she says. "He’s an incredibly grounded person and I am too, I think, so it’s nice to be able to have those touchstones and those people you can laugh about it with and be lighthearted with. We met when I was 20 and Paul was 22; I’m so excited to see where we’ll be at 32, 42, and what life will bring us."

But the coolest thing is that not only is Normal People special for Paul and Daisy, but they've also been able to see the effect of the show on its fans.

"The thing I love people saying the most is, 'It made me contact my ex,'" Daisy continues. "Especially when much older people say, 'I just wanted to reach out to the person I was with when I was 17 just to say you were a big part of my history and thanks for being part of who I am, the tapestry of my life.' And that I really love, because I’m a massive romantic."

Daisy recently revealed they bonded over their training for Twisters and Gladiator II.

"I did running lessons — isn’t that crazy?" she told Variety. "Actually, Paul [Mescal] and I were laughing about it, because he was training for 'Gladiator II' and I was training for 'Twisters,' and obviously he had to be huge and I was like, 'Don’t worry, I’m going to be right up there with you.'"
