Here’s Everything You Didn’t See at The Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 Reunion
On January 18, the weather in New York City was icy cold, with temperatures in the thirties. Though the air in the Big Apple was frigid, The Real Housewives of Miami cast was ready to bring the heat for their dramatic Season 6 sit-down.
For the occasion, Guerdy Abraira, Kiki Barth, Lisa Hochstein, Julia Lemigova, Dr. Nicole Martin, Adriana de Moura, Alexia Nepola, Marysol Patton, and Larsa Pippen came to play, arriving on set with their glam teams (and some with their significant others) as well as the incredible reunion looks they were ready to rock for the epic affair.
The Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 cast’s arrival on set
Following a bright and early glam call at 6:45 a.m., the ladies began to convene on set with host Andy Cohen around 11:00 a.m., showing off their stunning styles in the process. What’s more, the gorgeous ladies took in the beautiful set, which took inspiration from their Mexico trip with colorful florals, plush couches, and a dramatic, Mexico City-themed backdrop.
Nicole was the first to hit the couches, wearing a gorgeous crimson velvet ATU Body Couture gown she originally paired with elbow-length sheer red gloves. She and her glam team ultimately decided to remove the accessory, considering how it blended in with the red velvet couch.

Lisa wasn’t the only one who made an outfit change. Speaking with BravoTV.com backstage, the mom of two noted her original choice “didn’t make it,” so she and her team opted for Di Petsa dress via Fwrd, which was overnighted by Lisa’s stylist, Stefani Strnad.

Guerdy also reconsidered a fashion choice, originally wearing a cream-white satin hood piece with her Celestino Couture strapless sheath. Alexia and Marysol arrived next, with Marysol matching her cream-colored Michael Fausto dress with her signature bejeweled “cockie” cup.

Following the rest of the cast’s arrival, the women chatted with each other about their looks for the day before filming began.

Right before they were about to start shooting, Lisa had to run to the bathroom — quickly, of course! Upon her return, the stage manager directed “HMUs,” or hair and makeup teams to do their final touch-ups on the ladies.

Right as the group was going to officially start the reunion, Andy, unfortunately, was having trouble with one of his contact lenses. Luckily, his contact settled in and he was ready for the day.
What it was like on set at The Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 reunion taping
During the taping, which began a little past 11:30 a.m., and continued throughout various bathroom breaks and glam touch-ups, numerous topics were covered, including Alexia’s husband Todd Nepola’s “finances,” Lisa sharing new details about her ongoing divorce from Dr. Lenny Hochstein, Guerdy reflecting on her emotional cancer journey, and much more.
At numerous points throughout the shoot, the ladies got heated as they sorted through the drama from the season, causing Andy to joke around 2:30 p.m., “I do wanna get lunch pretty soon.” Soon after, the cast and crew took a break and did just that.

Upon everyone’s return, the crew brought in some heat lamps for some extra warmth, considering the freezing New York City temperature. Moreover, the hair and makeup artists were called again to the stage for touch-ups, descending upon the couches in a fury before rolling began again.

As the cast got heated again (literally and figuratively), Larsa and Lisa’s boyfriends, Marcus Jordan and Jody Glidden, respectively, watched backstage in support of their girlfriends.

By the time 4:00 p.m. rolled around, the shoot continued with its momentum. Andy, however, was still having issues with his eyes. After apologizing and laughing while trying to read a teleprompter, ultimately, it all worked out.
How The Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 reunion concluded
As the ladies were reaching the endpoint for the topics of discussion, murmurs from the crew noted an “opera singer” was “in the building,” as a crew member started getting a tray of tequila shots ready for the final moments of the reunion.

Following a clinking of shot glasses (and cockie cups) and a taste of Larsa’s tequila, Olujo, the opera singer Julia hired for her “F-ck Cancer” party for her wife, Martina Navratilova, came to the stage to wrap the day.
Julia joined the singer as the two brought the house down while Andy and the ladies danced. And that was a wrap to a long, but eventful reunion day!
