Real Housewives Who Were Only There For One Season
The Real Housewives franchise has always been a series dedicated to showcasing opulent lifestyles, boisterous personalities, and classic reality show feuds. When the franchise became a hit and spawned spin-offs, fans quickly began to pick their favorite cast members and tuned in to see what shenanigans their elected favorites would find themselves in. Alas, there have been many cast members of the various shows that have only appeared on a single season.
Whatever the reason happens to be, these former housewives either vanished or would at least not be featured within the main cast. With that being said, let’s take a look at the wonderful housewives who felt that appearing on one season was good enough for them, shall we? Let’s do this thing.
10 Kimberly Bryant (RHOC Season 1)
Kimberly Bryant was one of the original cast members of The Real Housewives of Orange County series; however, she would only be featured on season 1. Bryant now resides in Chicago with her family and prefers to keep her life on the down low rather than broadcast her everyday life for everyone to see. Though she did make guest appearances on the 3rd and 4th seasons of RHOC, Bryant would never return to the main cast.
9 DeShawn Snow (RHOA Season 1)
With season 14 of RHOA well on its way and all the things that have changed since the previous season, fans have seen the return of series original Shereé Whitfield after three years. However, DeShawn Snow, another RHOA original, was only featured in season 1. Snow has, of course, shown up on the 14th season as a guest, but her days as a main cast member are over, at least for now.
8 Katie Rost (RHOP Season 1)

Known for being wrapped up in a bit of controversy surrounding her husband’s sexual assault allegations involving a cameraman of the show, Rost was fired by Bravo and would only make brief guest appearances after her firing.
