Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 Reunion, Part 3 Recap: Where Do Guerdy and Larsa Stand?
And so, Season 6 comes to an end with The Real Housewives of Miami Reunion, Part 3. Things ended on a sour note last week with Larsa still trying to defend her behavior in the face of Guerdy’s cancer diagnosis. Lisa also came under fire for the non-stop talk of her divorce, and Nicole over the Mamacita brunch. Will the Housewives end the reunion at each other’s throats? Find out in the RHOM Reunion, Part 3 recap.
Guerdy says Larsa’s apologies are “show and tell”
We picked up where we left off, with Larsa and Guerdy arguing about their friendship. Larsa was still hung up on Guerdy calling her “fake,” to which Guerdy said, “You are. You want to see a before and after picture?” Larsa threatened to use a before and after photo as well, which Guerdy implied was a moot point since she’d only had a tummy tuck and her breast surgery.
Andy Cohen asked how Lisa felt about her friend telling everyone about Guerdy’s diagnosis. Lisa said she condemned Larsa but also pointed out that Larsa felt terrible after the fact (Oh yeah? Would’ve been nice to see that remorse at some point). Guerdy mocked Larsa’s alleged remorse and then called Lisa a “mascot,” which had Kiki and Marysol silently dying.
Alexia asked if Larsa ever considered having an in-person one-on-one with Guerdy. Larsa said that Guerdy would never give her a chance and just shut Alexia down completely. Andy pointed out that Larsa called Nicole to ask if Guerdy’s diagnosis was real. Larsa defended that move by saying she just wanted to know what was going on. Nicole seemed to imply there was a miscommunication somewhere between everyone.
Andy then asked if Larsa felt Guerdy used her diagnosis to garner sympathy. Larsa admitted that she was hurt by her characterization – taking the information and doing something malicious with it. Guerdy, in tears, said, “No one can try to tell me that I weaponized cancer. I tried to normalize my life.”
The question from Andy then became what Larsa would need to do to earn a friendship with Guerdy once again. Guerdy called Larsa’s apologies “show and tell.” Larsa felt there was nothing more she could say or do.
Kiki becomes emotional over her personal life
With nowhere left to go, the discussion moved over to Kiki. As it turned out, Kiki found herself a man with whom she was extremely happy. In harder news to swallow, Kiki explained her familial situation, sharing that her father essentially found a new family and left her mother alone when he moved to the U.S. As she recounted having to work in high school, she became emotional. “I have to still provide for my mother,” she revealed.
The conversation then switched to Kiki’s swim week event and how almost all of her friends bailed on the afterparty. Some of the girls started offering up excuses, and Kiki acknowledged and validated some. But it was still “painful” for her. Kiki unexpectedly began crying as she compared her life to that of her co-stars.
“I never really throw anything, you know?” she said. She explained how she’d never even thrown a birthday party for her kids because she lacked the opportunity. She was too busy saving for her children’s futures. Julia offered some comfort to Kiki, explaining how deeply she related to her as a single mother from another country trying to make it as a model.
Everyone was happy to know the new Kiki and her friends said they’d plan a big celebration for her children in the coming fall.
The real finances of Miami
After a brief homage to the city of Miami, Andy noted that real estate was up more than ever. Alexia pointed out that everyone in the world was coming to Miami. As for the status of Nicole’s new house, Anthony said that everything would be ready in early April, just in time for the new baby.
Speaking of finances, one fan wrote in to express their disbelief at the allowance Larsa gave her daughter each month. Larsa confirmed she was 15 and getting $2,500 a month. Larsa defended the decision, saying the money was for food, Ubers, and gifts for friends. Furthermore, Sophia made her own money doing photoshoots, so she wasn’t learning to be dependent. Hmm.
Adriana said that despite Larsa’s faults, she was a good mom. Andy responded, “That’s a double-edged sword.” Indeed. Larsa said she felt she’d “taken a beating” the whole season, which Guerdy said was deserved.
The talk of finances continued with Andy asking how much a jar of organic jam should cost. Julia laughed at her own naivety and explained everything that went into producing the jam, including chicken feed to produce the fertilizer for the guava trees. She also said she saw premium bottles of jam worth $50 online, to which Kiki asked if they came with vibrators.
Julia’s torn friendships with Alexia and Adriana
With Julia as the topic of discussion, they briefly touched on the opera night. Andy shared how much he loved it – how it was one of his favorite things across all his years of Housewives. When asked if Julia had a future career in music, Adriana gave a roundabout no, but still sent some love in Julia’s direction.
From there, Julia discussed the pull between her friends, Adriana and Alexia. Julia said she felt loyal to both of them. A fan asked Adriana if she felt Alexia’s friendship with Julia was genuine. Adriana compared it to Mean Girls, saying Julia was impressionable to the plastics. Marysol and Alexia accused Adriana of being the one to twist the “impressionable” Julia. For her part, Julia gave Alexia every benefit of the doubt.
Marysol even confessed that Alexia was more fond of Julia than her presently. Lisa and Larsa admitted on Watch What Happens Live that they believed Julia and Alexia’s friendship wouldn’t last. Nevertheless, they were proven wrong.
As for Julia’s future plans, an adoption was still on the table. She said she would be all too happy with a girl. However, the couple decided they would give it a year.
Larsa and Alexia’s beef over tequila
From there, the group began discussing Mexico, starting with Larsa and Alexia’s bizarre argument over the former’s business ventures. Alexia said she didn’t even know about Larsa’s tequila brand; it felt very out of the blue. When Larsa asked for her friends to jump in, they admitted that they also hadn’t heard of it. Alexia said this was a good example of Larsa’s lying habits.
Adriana said she remembered Larsa having talked about it, and Nicole conceded that maybe she misremembered. The conversation devolved into inaudible arguments. Lisa commended her friend for her business ventures. When things calmed for a moment, Guerdy pointed out that Larsa pushed a lot of products.
Part of the original argument was Larsa’s claim that she didn’t “have a Todd.” Andy asked if that was hypocritical given that Larsa had been with Scottie Pippen for so long. Larsa deflected and cited Alexia’s ex.
Does Lisa regret her actions toward Kiki?
That was where that conversation ended, with Andy wanting to move to the gondola ride. When asked, Lisa admitted she regretted feeding the dogs. Lisa became slightly emotional, reminding everyone she’d had a tough day beforehand. Kiki shook her head. “It was very disrespectful,” Kiki said. She felt that Lisa escalated the situation when all Kiki had said was “That was not nice.”
Kiki again said that Lisa had a lack of self-awareness and respect for others, especially her. She blamed Lisa for looking down on others. Lisa denied that vehemently and Guerdy tried to get her to understand Kiki’s perspective. Guerdy and Andy pointed out that Lisa had committed multiple microaggressions against Kiki. In the back room, Jody felt that Lisa was misunderstood but Marcus understood why Kiki would’ve been triggered.
Kiki reminded Lisa that she didn’t even know her kids’ names before the season ended. Andy similarly pointed out that Lisa responded to Kiki’s trauma by saying “I’m not a therapist.” Lisa conceded, “My delivery was terrible.” Andy asked, “Your delivery or the statement?” She agreed with both “the delivery and the words.”
As for whether they could move on, Kiki said they could take baby steps. She and Lisa resolved that they would get to know each other more.
Where the Miami Housewives stand post-reunion
With that, it was time to wrap things up. Adriana revealed that she’d continue working with Emilio, and she had a tour planned for the coming year. Nicole was looking forward to buying adorable outfits for her coming daughter. Lisa felt she was moving to a better place, especially now that she was out of the house.
Larsa also felt that she was living her best life with her children thriving. Marysol was glad to have been married across multiple countries in her 50s, living life her way. Kiki felt it was gratifying to have her friends get to know her better. Julia was glad to know that her friends could change. She also felt happy about her changes – except for her unchanging belief that Larsa’s butt wasn’t real.
The awkward comment raised a laugh from Adriana. Larsa retorted by saying she didn’t understand Julia’s relationship with Martina, considering Julia allegedly told Alexia that she liked black men. Julia said Alexia was not the only one to know that. Right. Moving on.
Alexia felt content with her present circumstances, wanting to improve things with Nicole. On that note, Larsa called out Alexia for her hypocrisy, saying she was the only one in the group who didn’t acknowledge her lies. This spiraled into an argument with Nicole laughing about an argument during the farewell. Andy indulged Alexia, asking who the liars in the group were. Alexia named Adriana, Nicole, and Larsa.
Guerdy and Larsa finally make up
Upon moving on to Guerdy, Andy said she had “summitted the mountain that is cancer.” Guerdy was grateful for her new life perspective. She encouraged herself and her friends to “give each other the benefit of the doubt.” She further encouraged everyone to put themselves in each other’s shoes.
Larsa decided to stand up and offer her a hug. The two embraced and, miraculously, that seemed to be the end of it. For now (Felt a little bit out of nowhere, no?).
Adriana read from the Bible, reading from Ecclesiastes, saying that all come from dust and to dust all return. She felt humbled by that fact. Nicole pointed out that the group had a great deal to look forward to. Guerdy was cancer-free, Frankie was thriving, Kiki’s new boyfriend, Adriana’s singing career, etc.
The group brought out another shot of tequila to end. To close things out, Julia and her opera partner Jonathan did a surprise duet of Ave Maria.
The Real Housewives of Miami Season 6 is available to stream on Peacock.

Guerdy Abraira’s Best Looks Over The Years
Fans love Real Housewives of Miami star Guerdy Abraira for many reasons. She’s an inspiring woman with a wonderful personality and a beautiful family. Since joining RHOM with the Season 4 reboot, viewers can’t get enough of Guerdy. Or her clothes!
In addition to strength and charisma, Guerdy’s style makes her a standout Bravolebrity. In my opinion, she’s one of the most fashionable Real Housewives. Her confessional looks are always a treat, and over-the-top in a good way.
As a renowned event planner, it’s no wonder the Florida fashionista has such great taste. Surely, her time living in Paris shaped her chic fashion sense. As a rollercoaster RHOM season comes to a close, let’s highlight Guerdy’s best looks over the years.
Couple Goals
Guerdy and her husband Russell Abraira have been together since high school. Clearly, they’ve learned to coordinate couple looks that crush. Fans swoon over the great looking and very well dressed pair.
At an event hosted by future frenemy Larsa Pippen, Guerdy rocked a fun and unique gown. The cherry appliques are so cute, and the turquoise feathers divine. Russell also looks suave, but he knows to let Guerdy get the spotlight.
Stunning In Silver
Talk about a hot zone! At a 2021 premiere, Guerdy served up old school movie star glamour. This silver dress looks like she was poured into it. The ravishing red lip and matching mani-pedi are icing on the cake. This was in the early days of Guerdy’s Real Housewives fame, back when Miami was still on Peacock. It definitely established her as a style star to watch.
RHOM Season 4 Reunion
Guerdy’s been one of the best dressed at all of her RHOM reunions so far. For her first reunion in Season 4, Guerdy rocked a metallic teal and gold gown. It even matched the set’s decor. She definitely outshone several co-stars.
Ravishing In Red
Now this is a memorable Watch What Happens Live look. This flamenco dancer inspired dress is fiery, dramatic, and so much fun. It was her first visit to Andy Cohen‘s WWHL Clubhouse, and she made her mark. The episode aired on Valentine’s Day. So, it’s perfect that Guerdy looked red hot!
Pretty In Pink
Did someone call for Malibu Miami Barbie? Because that’s what Guerdy looked like at a 2022 Miami Social event. The hot pink shade of this dress is such a great color on her. See also, the RHOM promo looks for Season 6. Bold colors always suit Guerdy and her fun personality. And the fitted style shows off her incredible figure.
A Ray of Sunshine
Guerdy brought a real “ladies who lunch” chicness with this look at a Miami event hosted by Variety. Fans know how much Bravo stars love their blazer dresses. But this yellow and white patterned frock with bishop sleeves stands out from the pack.
These days, so many outfit repeats show up across Housewives cities (that Mulger bodysuit!). So, we love that Guerdy’s looks are so unique. Also, the gold shoes with tassels that she’s wearing here are just so much fun.
RHOM Season 5 Reunion
Guerdy slayed the Season 5 reunion in a super sexy custom chainmail dress. Personally, this is one of my all-time favorite Real Housewives reunion outfits. It like a work of art! And it looks great when she’s both sitting down and standing up. This is not the case with many Real Housewives reunion looks over the years.
Guerdy posted making-of content for the dress, which was a custom Celestino Couture design, on her Instagram. She revealed that James Bond movies were the inspiration. It’s safe to say Guerdy nailed the Bond Girl bombshell vibe.
Regal For RHOM Season 6
Guerdy is undoubtedly the queen of RHOM Season 6. In this light blue gown, she absolutely looked like one. And not just because it includes a fabulous puff-sleeve cape with silver trim. The shimmery fabric is so pretty. Her makeup, hair, and accessories are perfect as well. Also, how handsome does Russell look? The Abrairas’ are total Bravo royalty.
BravoCon Babe
Housewives step up their style at BravoCon. Or, they at least try to. At the 2023 event, Guerdy continued to ace her fashion game.
Guerdy’s outfit reminds me of what Zendaya wore on her Dune press tours. That’s a big compliment.
This look is extra memorable for an emotional reason. It was the moment at BravoCon when Guerdy announced she’s cancer-free! To quote her Season 6 tagline, “hard times are temporary, but I’ll be fabulous forever.”
RHOM Season 6 Reunion
Every RHOM cast member brought their A-game for the Season 6 reunion looks. Obviously, Guerdy was no exception. Like her Season 5 dress, this was a custom look from Celestino Couture.
The beauty’s in the details of this cream strapless gown. Both the pearl peplum and the gold lining are stunning. No wonder RHOM fans are obsessed with these looks!

Nigel Lythgoe Attacks ‘Erratic’ Paula Abdul After Sexual Assault Claims
The war between Nigel Lythgoe and Paula Abdul just got a whole lot nastier. In a December 2023 lawsuit, Paula accused Nigel of sexually assaulting her. It caused a domino effect, leading to another lawsuit and the So You Think You Can Dance co-creator ultimately getting ousted from his show ahead of Season 18.
According to Paula, Nigel assaulted her on multiple occasions behind the scenes of both SYTCYD and American Idol. When her lawsuit became public, Nigel denied all wrongdoing and described Paula as a longtime colleague and platonic friend. Now, in a sudden shift in tone, he’s slamming her in court documents and trying to make it seem like she was always some sort of loose cannon. Radar Online reported all of the details.
Nigel strikes back
In Nigel’s response to Paula’s lawsuit, he called out the former American Idol judge for her alleged erratic behavior, drug use, and history of telling tall tales. He called her a “well-documented fabulist.”
The court documents slammed Paula as someone with “a long history of telling wild stories that are untethered from reality.” They accused her of using these stories as a way to “attract attention” and make her “appear to be the victim of dreadful misfortune.”
Nigel’s allegations against Paula also included a boatload of texts and emails from their time working together. According to Nigel, the fact they communicated positively over the years is proof that he didn’t assault her. For example, one text shows Paula calling Nigel “sweetheart” and thanking him for a floral arrangement she received. In another message, Paula wrote, “I truly appreciate our friendship and am looking forward to launching our project.”
When discussing his work history with Paula, Nigel levied some major accusations about her on-set behavior. He said she was edited to look “wacky” but in actuality, she was unprofessional and unhinged. He claimed she was “unintelligible, drooling, and passing out in audition rooms.”
Clearly, Nigel’s defense strategy is to try to make Paula look like an unreliable source. What’s not clear is how he plans on getting out of the other lawsuit related to All American Girl. Shortly after Paula filed her lawsuit, two contestants from the 2003 show came forward with similar allegations against Nigel. Is he going to call them “erratic” as well?
TELL US – WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON NIGEL’S ACCUSATIONS AGAINST PAULA? DO YOU THINK SHE WAS AS SLOPPY BEHIND THE SCENES AS HE CLAIMED?
