Although we were forced to close the door on a decade, we have plenty of unforgettable “Real Housewives” moments to look back on. During 2019, the ladies from the various Bravo franchises were at the center of brutal arguments, break ups and shocking revelations.

Whether you tuned in to watch “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast deal with relationship woes or were focused on the scandalous affairs happening on “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” take a look back at the craziest “Real Housewives” moments of the year.

5. Porsha Williams’ Pregnancy Drama

The “RHOA” star appeared to be on her way to a happy ending after she announced her first pregnancy and engagement to Dennis McKinley. Almost three months after welcoming their baby girl, Pilar Jhena, E! News confirmed the split in June.

The couple broke up after Porsha learned Dennis cheated on her while she was pregnant. During “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” Season 12 premiere, Porsha admitted she was struggling with the break up during a conversation with her sister, Lauren.

“I just don’t understand. I keep going to sleep at night thinking I’m going to wake up, and it’s not going to be true. Like, the only reason I keep answering his phone calls is because I keep thinking that he’s going to say the one thing to make me believe that this isn’t happening,” she told her sister.

“This is my family. I wanted a family, and this is what we’ve been working on and then this. Like, what? It’s like it’s gotta be a bad dream or a joke.”

While Porsha and Dennis have since gotten back together, “RHOA” Season 12 has documented their issues as the two work on repairing their bond.

4. Lisa Vanderpump Quits “RHOBH” After Passing Lie Detector Test

Lisa has been a cast member on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” since it premiered in 2010. In 2019, the reality star decided to quit the show after she got into a nasty feud with her co-stars. The problem started when Dorit Kemsley adopted a dog from Lisa’s rescue organization. However, Dorit had a friend take the canine to a shelter after it “nipped” one of her children. Lisa was upset once she learned about Dorit’s decision to take the dog to a shelter.

After a story about the incident was leaked to RadarOnline, Lisa’s cast members accused her of going to the press. The “Vanderpump Rules” star took a lie detector test to prove she wasn’t lying about sharing the story. Although she passed, the damage was already done.
