Real Housewives of Miami: Season Finale Recap - Drama, Secrets, and Suites!
A Whirlwind Finale: Where Do Friendships Go to Explode?
Wow, what a season of The Real Housewives of Miami! Between shocking reveals and explosive arguments, the reunion was nothing short of epic. It feels like just yesterday we were reeling from that Earth-shattering affair scandal that rocked Episode 2. After a season of unbelievable twists and turns, the ladies seemed to decide their issues weren't *that* significant.
After so much chaos, the only way to go is either further into it or step back and find levity. And what's more levity-inducing than discussing Lisa's late father?
Lisa's Loss and Larsa's Accusations: Throwback to Simpler Times (Not Really)
Before the Haitian morticians and coffee addictions, we had Lisa taking selfies with an embalmed body, while Larsa was gossiping about Lisa's boyfriend's alleged drug use. Oh, those were the days... sort of. Everyone grieves differently, and Lisa felt her dad would have wanted her to shine. Apparently, sending that picture was her way of honoring him this season.
Interestingly, no one seemed to check in on Lisa after her father's passing, despite her throwing a party in honor of Alexia's mother's death years prior (a party Alexia didn't even attend, nor did it make the show!). Lisa insists she does thoughtful things.
And Alexia? She's had enough of Lisa's pity party. "Enough is enough. Like, you've been talking..." she exclaimed.
Alexia's One-Liners and a Stunning Truce
Someone should make a whole spreadsheet of Alexia's quips from this reunion. One highlight was when Julia and Adriana were discussing an alleged encounter in Seville in a "little room," and Alexia chimed in, "It was actually a big room. We had a suite." She's truly standing up for Miami's reputation!
And maybe that dismissal of Lisa's "woe is me" narrative was exactly what she needed to move past her feud with Larsa. They even hugged it out backstage, neglecting to apologize or admit fault! It's a truce that could last two whole episodes. Is this what we call friendship and love? This might be the only Real Housewives show where half the reunion happens behind the scenes.
Aging Gracefully and Guerdy's Immigration Story
Meanwhile, Adriana, facing affair allegations, asks the important questions: "Do you think it's easy to age?" It's quite something that Adriana is still painting herself as the victim of a birthday cake crime, while Marysol got stunt surgery as a result of Adriana calling her old and bony.
We also learned about Guerdy's Cinderella-esque immigration experience and how Andy tried to tie it into her feud with Julia. Julia reminded us that her kids kind of hate her, but maybe they don't. Progress!
Secrets Revealed and Marysol's Puppet Mastery
This was a "secrets revealed" reunion episode, shoving everything into one episode. Apparently, Marysol hired a private investigator to get Dr. Nicole off the show! We spent about 30 seconds discussing that! I'd like to go back to that telenovela concept for a second.
We also explored Marysol's puppet mastery. Larsa admitted that Marysol thought Stephanie would be an Alexysol ally but short-circuited when Stephanie showed some scruples.
And with that, we are wrapping up this season with some final thoughts, and everyone toasting to a future.
Final Thoughts: The Room Was Actually a Suite!
This episode could have been dead air and it'd be okay given the insanity that we witnessed last week. Exposing a Housewife-on-Housewife affair and then just brushing it off a few hours later is pretty incredible. It's like it never happened!
But it did happen, and it was beautiful. Who knows what will happen next in The Real Housewives of Miami? Maybe this is the end of Julia's storyline. It could be Guerdy's swan song. Only time will tell. All we can do is revel in another amazing season and remember: Alexia's room was actually a suite!
