After an eight-year hiatus, The Real Housewives of Miami returned to screens in 2021. The show looked to have run its course after just three seasons but a Peacock revival saw Larsa Pippen, Alexia Echevarria, Adriana de Moura and co together again for season 4.
If any fans thought that in eight years the women would’ve hashed out their beef, closed the door on old drama or turned over a new leave, they’d be mistaken as right from season 4’s premiere episode, there’s been no end of drama in RHOM. One of the ladies who seems to manage to stay out of most of the drama is Martina Navratilova’s wife, Julia Lemigova.
