RHOM on Pause: Star Shares Hopes for Show's Return

On Watch What Happens Live, Southern Hospitality's Michaels Peña shared his fervent hope for the return of The Real Housewives of Miami (RHOM). Peña expressed that if the decision were his, the show would be a constant fixture on Bravo.

He highlighted RHOM's importance, particularly for its representation of Hispanic and Latin stars, a connection he deeply feels as his family hails from the Dominican Republic. Peña stated that shows like RHOM offer a vital sense of community and allow for the sharing of his story as a Hispanic individual.

Bravo officially confirmed in March that RHOM would be placed on an indefinite pause, with no immediate plans for an eighth season. This decision reportedly stems from concerns over sluggish ratings, prompting the network to evaluate the show's future viability.

The last new episode of RHOM aired on October 16, 2025. The most recent season featured cast members Alexia Nepola, Larsa Pippen, Lisa Hochstein, Guerdy Abraira, Julia Lemigova, and Stephanie Shojaee, alongside friends Adriana de Moura, Marysol Patton, and Kiki Barth. Following the announcement of the show's hiatus, many cast members took to social media to underscore the importance of RHOM for on-screen representation.
